Hey guys. Today I would like to talk about toothache in the cold, that’s right!
It is very common in this cold season, we receive calls from clients asking: Marco Polo, my tooth is hurting too much when I go to brush my teeth in the morning or when I drink colder water, is it decayed? What is happening?
Well, obviously, there are several factors that lead to pain, but let’s start by talking about pain specifically. We, health professionals, do not specifically treat pain, because pain is our body’s defense mechanism. I have to go to the cause of the pain. And, specifically in the cold, the tendency is for us to contract and when I do this contraction movement, which is unconscious, automatically, I can also flatten my teeth exactly like here in this model.
I clench my teeth, and the back teeth or some of the front teeth, it will depend on their occlusion, they can be overloaded and when they are overloaded, due to cold stress, what happens? I have sensitivity in the gum area, precisely in that region close to the gum, at the root of the tooth, because I have the crown of the tooth and I have the root of the tooth and this root of the tooth will bring me a sensitivity, which is precisely a protection system, so it’s very common in the cold in front of cold water and especially when I sleep, I sleep cold. I tend to tense up sometimes. We can use some miorrelaxing plaques, called bite plaques, to protect our bite so that I don’t overload the tooth.
The most important thing is that you have a periodic visit to your trusted dentist, because he may be analyzing and observing what you really need to keep your oral health up to date, especially in these times of adversity. What is the cold. That comes to bring a different situation into our lives, so don’t forget, keep a regular visit to your trusted dentist and, if you have any questions, send me a direct message on my Instagram, @drmarcopolosebraI will be delighted to be helping you, helping you.
A big hug, until the next video
