I live in northern Minnesota so am exposed to cold weather quite a bit. When I have been outside, without my mouth covered, my teeth and sometimes my gums ache. It isnt the same teeth all the time nor the same spot on the gums. It is random but very painful and sensitive. I have seen my dentist who says my teeth are very healthy and has no explanation for what I am feeling. It has become quite debilitating. I had polio as a child and wonder if there is some connection. I also have a slight, undiagnosed, case of renauds ( spelling?) in a couple of my toes, just in the winter, and wonder if there could be a connection to that?
Hello, thank you for consulting with Chat Doctor. Actually freezing does not cause pain in gums, but it definitely causes pain in the teeth. In your case it can be possible that your teeth might be slightly attracted, and now they are sensitive to cold. Better that once you should start with a desensitizing toothpaste. Hope it will help you.
