Thank you Chelsea Green and NetGalley.

I found this book on mouth hygiene and health particularly interesting. We often engage in ways to become healthier versions of ourselves without really taking into consideration how the mouth impacts our overall health so significantly.

A Well recommended .book.

As someone who works in the medical field, this book is a great reminder that oral hygiene is more than just for chewing and swallowing. I would recommend it.

Fantastic! As a dental professional in the United States this book hit all the areas we have been trying to continue to educate patients about. The mouth is connected to the body and health starts there. Great job. I will definitely recommend this book, Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for my honest review!

I received this book as an ARC from netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I picked this book without any expectations with the only motive of gaining some knowledge and this book did not disappoint me at all. The language in which everything is explained is simple and interesting so even the normal person who is not a dentist can also understand it.

There are so many facts which I discovered after reading this book. It was quite informative and shared many tips.

It enlightened me about the nutritional value of the food we eat. It influenced me into believing that oral health is in fact related to the general health of an individual. Being a dentist myself, I could understand what the author tried to explain.

There were some concepts about the root canal therapy towards which I felt a kind of disagreement. I also felt that this book targeted a definite kind of people of particular country maybe and that does not apply to some groups. But still, I absorbed and gained very much from this book. The topics were very well outlined and explained.

It was a great book and a great experience. I would like to recommend this book

This is a very interesting and important book. It will make complete sense to anyone who has read about gut health and has some knowledge about the microbiome. The importance of the mouth and the need to take care of the teeth and gums is so important. The author draws attention to many things that are not beneficial and guides you towards making improvements. After reading this book you will be armed to question everything about standard dentistry and make your own decisions about your dental care. Some things are easy to implement. But the most important thing is that you will begin to ask questions and not assume that standard dentistry is the best or the only way. I found the information about root canal treatments and implants really interesting and informative. The book would be useful for patients but also for dentists who are willing to embrace a more holistic and open approach.
