Cold weather can impact your teeth and braces more than you think! ❄️
Here’s what happens and how to care for your orthodontic treatment:
👉 Teeth expand and contract with cold, causing extra sensitivity or discomfort.
👉 Cold temps may make you clench or grind teeth, leading to enamel wear and jaw pain.
👉 Less sunlight lowers vitamin D, which can increase tooth sensitivity.
👉 Braces react to cold, making teeth more sensitive.
👉 Jaw muscles might get sore from clenching.
👉 Dry air can cause mouth sores that irritate braces.
Stay warm, drink warm (not hot) beverages, and keep your braces clean for a smooth orthodontic journey! Follow us for more orthodontic tips! 😊✨
