Hot Soup in Winter: Dentist Warns Against Temperature Variation Damaging Teeth

• Dentist Santosh Bisht explains that tooth decay starts with sensitivity to hot/cold or sweets, not suddenly.
• Consuming very hot and very cold items together (temperature variation) weakens tooth enamel, leading to decay.
• Changing dietary habits, like drinking cold soft drinks with hot momos, contribute to dental damage.
• Maintain dental health by brushing twice daily, cleaning the tongue, and rinsing after eating sweets.
• Avoid excessive sweet, sticky, junk foods, cold drinks, and packaged juices to prevent tooth decay.

Why It Matters: Temperature variations from hot and cold foods can damage teeth; proper hygiene and diet are crucial.
