This book takes a proactive approach to dentistry, delving into a wide range of topics to uncover how to support a truly healthy mouth. Teeth are often seen as a symbol of health, attractiveness, success, and even happiness. However, our approach to dental care has been fearful, expensive, and disconnected from other aspects of our body. We have long known that oral health is closely linked to our overall well-being. But what if we were to challenge the status quo? What if we viewed dental health as the cornerstone of our physical health?

Dr. Steven Lin, an experienced dentist and the world's leading dental nutritionist, has pioneered a new scientific perspective to reshape our understanding of dental disease. Through ancestral medicine, epigenetics, and an examination of the oral and gut microbiome, Dr. Lin has developed food-based principles for a holistic health approach that starts from the top down. By merging dental and nutritional science, Dr. Lin provides a comprehensive dietary program that prevents painful cavities and dental treatments, empowering individuals to raise children with naturally straight teeth. His 40-day meal plan includes the Dental Diet food pyramid, mouth exercises, recipes, and cooking techniques to facilitate easy and successful implementation of these practices in daily life.

Since our mouth serves as the gateway to our entire body, maintaining a balanced oral microbiome is crucial for fostering and sustaining a healthy and vibrant self. The tools to enhance overall wellness levels and reverse disease lie closer than we imagine—in our markets, pantries, and, most frequently, in our mouths.
