Why can't I eat cold foods?

Many people call us during this time of year to ask why they cannot drink or eat anything particularly cold or sweet. It is important to know that this can be due to several factors. Your teeth become sensitive to cold and heat when the soft part inside the tooth called the “dentin” is exposed. This can happen if you have gum disease, as this can lead to gum recession, or if the enamel wears away. This dental discomfort when eating cold foods can also be due to other factors such as a cavity, a cracked or chipped tooth, or a worn filling.

Avoid the unbearable pain that wisdom teeth can cause.

There is a simple and easy solution to avoid pain that is not caused by wisdom teeth. Go to the dentist and get a diagnosis, because in many cases there is no other option but to extract them. Wisdom teeth often suffer from cavities due to the difficulty of access for brushing, as they are located in the back area, and because of the bad position they usually have in the mouth, which prevents the tooth from correctly contacting its antagonist or opposite tooth.
