Download or read book More Chocolate No Cavities written by Roger W. Lucas and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 60% of children have a cavity by the age of 5, according to a survey by the AAPD. Doctors' kids, dentists' kids, nutritionists' kids, and children from all backgrounds get surprised by a cavity diagnosis every day across the country. It is often too late because well-meaning parents think it won't happen to them. Cavities don't care that much about effort. The dentist blames it on weak enamel or genetics, which means nothing changes. It doesn't have to be this way anymore. This guide is the first of its kind on instructing parents in exactly what to do if you don't want your child to get "surprise" cavities. (The ones not caused by excessive sugar.) Not only do I explain what to do, but I also go over the common pitfalls of well-meaning parents.
