The Dental Diet: Link Between Teeth, Real Food, and Natural Health

Praise for The Dental Diet
“Dental health is almost a forgotten topic when we think about our overall
health, but what if the health of our teeth and gums could alert us to
problems like diabetes and Alzheimer’s? Dr. Lin makes a powerful case for
not only paying more attention to our dental health, but he makes the case
that what is healthy for the mouth, is healthy for our whole being.”
— Robb Wolf, New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-
selling author of The Paleo Solution and Wired to Eat
“The future of medicine is interconnected in every way. The oral-systemic
link is an obvious example of this greater trend, and I am thrilled to see
dentists like Dr. Steven Lin leading the way in showing why we must work
together to change the trajectory of healthcare worldwide.”
— James Maskell, founder of Evolution of Medicine and author of
The Evolution of Medicine
“The Dental Diet is an incredible resource. Grounded in new
understandings of the critical importance of the oral microbiome to overall
health, Dr. Lin leads the way with a unique action-based food plan that is a
must-read for anyone wanting to enhance oral health and well-being.”
— Mark Burhenne, DDS, author of The 8-Hour Sleep Paradox
“Dr. Lin is a complete breath of fresh air in the Lifestyle Medicine
community. I’ve personally learned an enormous amount from his work,
and I’m thrilled to see that he is creating a book to make this more available
to the public. The dental-body connection is fascinating and completes a
missing link for many people worldwide. The Dental Diet is a must for
every patient and medical practitioner to read and understand for better
overall health.”
— Rupy Aujla, M.D., author of The Doctor’s Kitchen

“As an orthodontist that tries to help kids grow up with straight teeth, I
know we have to go back to the basics: breathing, posture, sleep, and
nutrition. From the moment of the first suckle, what we eat and how we eat
it is critical to the final outcome of the face, airway, jaws, and teeth. Dr.
Lin’s prescription is just what the doctor should be ordering.”
— Barry Raphael, DMD, founder of The Raphael Center for
Integrative Orthodontics
“Crooked teeth are a sign of a deeper underlying problem. Dr. Lin’s book
provides a much needed look into the profound impact diet has on dental
health. It also provides key strategies for parents to ensure their children
have a diet that will support optimal dental and whole body health.”
— Dr. Michael Ruscio, researcher, health enthusiast, and host of
Dr. Ruscio Radio
“Dr. Lin’s revolutionary leadership in nutrition and dentistry connected so
many dots during our interview, we are thrilled his important better health
recommendations are now widely accessible in The Dental Diet!”
— Ashley Koff, R.D., and Robyn O’Brien, co-hosts of Take Out
with Ashley & Robyn
“Dr. Lin’s work is timely and addresses an important, upcoming field which
few have ventured into thus far. Nutritional epigenetics captures the age-old
saying of ‘you are what you eat,’ but he backs up this concept with up-to-
date scientific evidence. I strongly recommend this book to students,
doctors, dentists, and researchers in nutrition, dietetics, and obesity, as well
as other healthcare professionals.”
— Professor Dave Singh, DDSC, Ph.D., DMD, president of
Vivos BioTechnologies, Inc.
“As an orthodontist, long ago, I saw the limitations of simply straightening
teeth to improve a patient’s smile. Over the last few decades, I have
witnessed a paradigm shift in the focus of the dental industry through both
speaking internationally and training thousands of dentists in the

importance of functional airway dentistry. I believe the next step is for the
profession to further integrate preventative steps, which is being led by Dr.
Lin’s nutrition program to address the malocclusion epidemic.”
— Dr. Derek Mahony, specialist orthodontist at Full Face
Orthodontics
