Your heart pumps more blood while you exert yourself. This expands the inner pulp of the tooth, causing pain. As you heart rate subsides, the stress on your teeths should as well.

mayb u clench them when you run and dont realize it

Thats a good question because that hapends to me to. I can't wait for the answer.

Do you breathe through your mouth? Maybe the wind hits them and they're sensitive.

if you run with your mouth open you have sensitive teeth,, brush with sensidyne before you run then see

Do you experience sinus problems? Maybe there is a correlation?

Do you bang them while running? If not, get your blood pressure checked. I'd actually get a physicall.

It is possible that you have cold-sensitive teeth. Some people's teeth are sensitive to cold, others to heat and even sugar. When you run and you are breathing heavily, air is forced across your teeth, drying them and making the air around them colder.
If you want to try to avoid this, wear a mouthpiece across your teeth and then see if they still hurt.

Do you stay hydrated during your exercise? The extra potassium that builds up in your muscles could cause muscle tightening, even in as strange a place as your gums.

Try stretching your jaw before and after your run.

Also, make sure the fluids you drink aren't too cold, as it could just be a topical thing.

All good answers. Read them and consider which one seems most likely to you. It is common for runners to clench their teeth and your dentist can make you a "night guard" to wear when you are running - even if you don't run at night. :-) Pain from cold air is not so likely when it's 80-90 degrees outside, even with hard breathing.

You must be clenching you teeth. I did that, until I noticed I was doing it.

It's very possible that you grind your teeth when you run. I grind my teeth all the time. I find that if I put just the tip and edges of my tongue between my teeth, it keeps me from grinding. If you grind with your tongue between your teeth, then you'll bite yourself. You don't have to stick your tongue out. Just put enough of it through there to separate your teeth.
