Hello,

Read your query ,as you have habit of chewing tobacco this habit of chewing gutka is not good for your health and it causes many lesion in oral cavity firstly I will advise you to quit your chewing gutka habit completely as due to this chewing habit you may have attrition , recession , or pocket formation in oral cavity which causes senstivity .
For this now you should consult dentist and go for for oral examination and oral prophylaxis to have good oral hygiene and as oral prophylaxis reduces bad breath also.
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day , do chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily, properly brush your teeth twice daily.

Hope this will help you.
