Black urine, raccoon eyes, altitude sickness… There are many symptoms suffered by the protagonists of The Snow Society and that are shown perfectly in the film. There is a clear scientific documentation work behind it; in addition to, of course, the interviews with the survivors of the accident. And, of course, the fact that some of the characters his teeth would move.
There are several reasons why teeth may move. We do not know exactly what was going through the minds of the creators of The Snow Society or if it really happened to one of its protagonists, but it can be theorized with some options.
The most likely, in fact, is a gum disease, known as periodontal disease. Although there are people who are more prone, this is generally due to poor dental hygiene, something obvious after two months abandoned in the snow. But it can also be exacerbated by stresslogical in this type of situation, and the immune system weaknesswhich would be more than likely with the poor diet and extreme conditions to which they were subjected.
Periodontal disease in The Snow Society
Carlos Paezone of the survivors of the real story behind The Snow Society has declared that Bayona’s film is more realistic than They live in many ways. Curiously, one of them is that in the Hollywood film from the 90s the protagonists, according to him, “they had white teeth”.
This is impossible in a situation like the one they were experiencing. And Bayona not only represents more realistic teeth in color. Also regarding the fact that in some cases even they will move.
When there is not good dental hygiene, periodontal disease can occur. This is a gum infection that damages the tissue around the teeth. If this becomes very serious, the bone on which the teeth rest can also be damaged, causing them to move and even come to fall
Lack of dental hygiene, poor diet and stress They are a terrible cocktail for the gums. Therefore, although it is not specified what happens to this character of The Snow Societywithout a doubt it is the most likely.

Other causes why a tooth can move
A tooth can also be moved by a trauma. It would be possible in the case of those injured, but not all the teeth would move, only one or a few. Also if there is a hole next. If they had lost teeth in the accident, it might happen, but again it wouldn’t happen to everyone.
Of course, in the case of baby teeth, they move when they are about to move. But this is not the case of the protagonists of The Snow Society. Therefore, these are much less likely hypotheses than periodontal disease.
