Why does ice at 0 degree Celsius appear colder to the mouth than water at the same temperature?
**_The difference in the temperature of the mouth and the cold water at 0C. When we have ice cream in our mouth, the ice cream absorbs a lot of heat as your mouth has a higher temperature equivalent to a high amount of heat but when you keep the same in water at 0C which does not have much temperature = does not have much heat ,the ice cream is not able to absorb much and appear colder to the mouth than water at 0℃. Hope this will help you. Hope you got correct answer._**

Is a temperature measured through the mouth of a dog inaccurate?
It is not the best method of measuring body temperature. Dogs don't sweat to reduce their body heat, but they evaporate water they breath out through their mouth to reduce temperature (panting) This means that the mouth temperature is constantly changing depending on whether the dog is panting. It is more accurate to take temperature from inside the anus.
Can you sleep with dentures?
It is much healthier for your gums to sleep without dentures. It will irritate the gums in your sleep which will result in sores on the gums. The gums need time to rest and to allow normal stimulation to maintain healthy gums. Also the dentures will collect plenty of germs in your mouth during the day, so it is good and recommended to soak them in warm water or a denture cleaner at night. Make sure to keep a routine cleaning of your dentures to insure healthy gums.
How To Properly Care For Dentures?
Cleaning dentures properly is important. These items are not as durable as they look and should be treated with care. This is especially important for caregivers who clean their patient's dentures and those who have just recently had dentures made for themselves. Failing to care for dentures properly can be very costly. The first step in proper denture care is to remember to brush them every day. While the risk of getting cavities and feeling pain is gone, it is still possible to get a bacterial infection in the mouth without proper hygiene. If denture adhesive is also used, be sure to remove the residue or soak the dentures overnight with a dissolving tablet. There are special brushes for dentures; one side is designed to clean the inside crevice and the other side is designed to brush teeth as a regular toothbrush would. When cleaning or brushing dentures, it is crucial to always use cool or cold water. Holding them under cold water may be uncomfortable for some, but the water should never be more than lukewarm. If hot water is used on dentures, the material that adheres to the gum may melt slightly. This will result in an improper fit and possibly pain, as well. From time to time, it is important to check the teeth on the dentures. Putting very light pressure on each tooth, try to wiggle it, but do not apply force. If a tooth is slightly loose, it will wiggle a little. This is a sign that the dentures need to be taken in to a dentist to be fixed. It is much easier to fix them when they're loose, rather than waiting for the teeth to fall out completely. Remember to treat the gums well. This is an important part of proper denture care. If gums become inflamed, the dentures will not fit properly and will hurt. After brushing the dentures at night, massage the gums lightly with a finger or swab dipped in mouth wash. Rinse the mouth well with antiseptic mouthwash after removing the denture and again before putting them in. This will ensure that harmful bacteria are kept to a minimum.

Do police officers have to ask if you have dentures if pulled over for a DUI?
Police officers investigating drunk driving cases don't have to ask you if you have dentures, but the question is usually asked before a suspect takes a breath test. Alcohol can sequester underneath a denture and affect the results of the test. The remedy is to have the suspect remove the denture, rinse their mouth and the denture with water, and replace it.
How much baking soda do you need to soak dentures in?
About a tablespoon per half a cup of water. Baking soda works well for stains and odor which all dentures, retainers, mouth guards or expanders will have from wearing. Be sure to brush any mouth piece/denture first with a toothbrush so the baking soda can do a better job. If one tablespoon isn't strong enough increase the baking soda to two tablespoons. It's best to let them soak overnight.
