Over time, biting ice can lead to small cracks, chipped teeth, and increased sensitivity from repeated pressure.

Tooth wear can happen in different ways, and each type affects your smile differently. 🦷

Attrition comes from teeth grinding, abrasion is caused by outside forces like aggressive brushing, and erosion happens when acids wear down enamel.

Staying hydrated during Memorial Day celebrations can help protect your smile just as much as your body. 💧

Water helps rinse away food particles and keeps your mouth from drying out, while sugary drinks can increase the risk of cavities and enamel wear.

If it’s not removed, it can irritate the gums and lead to inflammation and early gum disease 🦠

Sticky sweets like chocolate chip cookies tend to cling to teeth longer, giving cavity-causing bacteria more time to feed.

Non-sticky treats clear away faster, but sugar exposure still matters—timing and cleanup make a difference. 🍪
