Some of our patients really love eating ice. Or snacking on a cup of crushed ice. Or chomping through ice cubes at the end of a chilly beverage. We understand how this might be an enjoyable experience that’s just as refreshing in its coolness as it is refreshingly free of fat, calories, sugar, and more! However, with that said, our Virginia Beach, VA team wants you to consider that choosing to avoid eating ice is actually a very wise choice for your oral health. Think through some enlightening reasons behind this recommendation from your Virginia Beach dentist!
