Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..
As per your complain it seems that due to teeth picking habit there is gapping of teeth and also loss of tooth material which in turn cause decay and sensitive teeth..

I would suggest you to consult a Dentist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigation like x rays of teeth has to be done to check whether bteeth can be saved with simple filling or needs extensive treatment like Root Canal Treatment..

In case of superficial decay you can get filling of teeth done with tooth coloured filling material..
If the decay has reached deep to the nerves then Root Canal Treatment followed by capping of teeth has to be done..

Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards.
