Malocclusion: Coldwater is like taking aspirin, will numb the pain for a short time but will not fix the problem. Please see a General Dentist in your area. He/she can evaluate your problem and either correct it or refer you to the appropriate specialist for correction. This will not self cure, and delay will only allow the problem to worsen. Please see Dentist now.
