It’s natural and sugar free, so you
might think ice is harmless. But munching on hard, frozen cubes can chip or
even crack your teeth. And if your mindless chomping irritates the soft tissue
inside a tooth, regular toothaches may follow. Hot foods and cold foods may
trigger quick, sharp jabs of pain or a lingering toothache. Next time you get
the urge for ice, chew some sugarless gum instead.
At Infinite Smiles, in St. Louis MO, we provide a full range of dental care services and dental treatments. Our dentists offer children's, cosmetic, family, general, implant, orthodontic, preventive, restorative and sedation dentistry services.
