Saved My Life…. (teeth)?

October 18th, 2008

Dave: you really helped to save my life in a very major way. i have no idea what i would do without you. there is no information like yours to be had anywhere. you are - a genius of a young man.

i bet your teeth are superb.

my teeth are very good - but no one ever instructed me in any way on gum care.

when i fell into depression - i let the flossing go by the wayside. this has had bad consequences on my lower teeth.

nontheless they are getting better with some of your tricks. i just tried the Listerine cut way down. i cannot wait to try the Hydro Floss.

the scope of your knowledge is so impressive. i can’t thank you enough.

My very best,

Thank you very much. It is notes like this one that help me to keep going!

Gum Disease Information Praise

October 16th, 2008

This was an unsolicited email that I received. I really think virtually everyone could benefit from my book on gum disease.

Hi David,

I read your literature, took your advice and had the BEST dental checkup today in years! There was some pain during the cleaning but nothing like it had been. I could tolerate the whole process much better.

The dental hygienist was very impressed with my home care. My gums weren’t inflamed like they had been. Usually when the hygienist checked the pocket depths, it felt like she was shoving straight pins into my gums. There were just a few areas where I still got that sensation.

I can’t say that my gums are growing back but at least they appear to be maintaining. I have always been vigilant about my home care and had used proxabrushes for years with poor results.

My new routine includes the Hydro Floss, Ora MD and Dr Katz Thera Breath mouth rinse. The Hydro Floss is a joy to use compared to the proxabrushes. I think the Ora MD really helps to reduce the sensitivity and pain when an area flares up. Dr Katz Thera Breath is very mild and nonirritating. The dental hygienist told me that there is no proof that oral irrigators work but that she has seen good results in some of her patients. I am personally convinced that they work. I don’t need anymore proof than what I have personally experienced. I really am grateful for your information. I was initially skeptical but am a true believer now. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Sharlene

Xylitol - The Sweet Truth

October 14th, 2008

Xylitol is an excellent 5 carbon sugar. The bacteria in your mouth cannot feed on it.

Therefore, it does not contribute to the development of cavities or gum disease.

It also creates a protective effect over time with continued use.

Diabetics need not fear xylitol, it will not interfere with your insulin levels. It uses an alternate metabolic pathway to provide energy to your body.

But beware, not all xylitol products are considered equal. NO!
Some manufacturers put a tiny and virtually useless amount of xylitol in their products in order to claim the good publicity that xylitol is enjoying.

See which Xylitol Products I find to be worthwhile.

1. In the United States

2. In Europe

3. In Canada

Caution: Animals, especially dogs, should not be given xylitol. While it is perfectly safe for human consumption, some animals cannot tolerate it.

Galley Copies All Out There

August 28th, 2008

There has been a delay since my last update due to the need to move this site to a new server.

The galley copies are out there. And I have been receiving good feedback.

A VP for a company is talking about possibly bundling the book with their own products. They also may sell the book stand alone if I understand correctly.

Others have told me the book is very good. That is very encouraging.

Enjoy the book. If you think it is good, tell others. This is information that I believe most people need to know.

Print Version Update

July 26th, 2008

Yesterday, I received a notice that I would soon have a prepublished version of the book in my hands. This will be what is called a galley copy. It has the word ‘galley’ written on the cover and watermarked on each page.

The plan currently is to send the galley copies out for endorsement purposes. We are estimating about 4 to 5 weeks for this process to be completed.

After that the full production version will be created and put into distribution. I’ve heard varying estimates as to how long that may take. I’ve heard 6 weeks and I’ve also heard 2 weeks.

So the print version of this book is probably 8 weeks away.  (The digital version is available now.)

That means the process of getting the book into publication is well over 1 year between writing, planning, rewriting and overcoming obstacles and road blocks on the path to getting this book available to the public on sites like Amazon and Barnes & Nobles, along with this one.

Stay tuned.  You can
