There are various things that cause dry and cracked teeth. Not only hot weather and cold temperature conditions, dry and chapped lips can also occur due to certain medical symptoms. In general, the cause of chapped lips is due to weather conditions and insufficient moisture levels on the skin of the lips. When lips are dry, the skin of the lips will easily peel and become injured.
Exposure to sunlight, lack of humidity, dehydration, consuming spicy food, the habit of licking your lips, breathing through your mouth, consuming certain medications, fasting, can also cause your lips to become drier. Impact
