Answers:

Munching ice should not harm your health. It will indeed harm your teeth to the extent it will cause sensitive teeth and gum, and cracked molars.

You probably will not feel the negative effects now, but when you get sensitive teeth and gum, you will feel sharp pain when you take cold or hot food and drinks.

A cracked molar will cause you pain until you extract it. My husband experienced it, although he didn't munch on ice. As a young man, he liked to use his teeth to crack any hard shells to get to the food. So....

If you like ice, just let it melt in your mouth. That's what I do in hot sunny Singapore, and that's what my two sons do too.
