I write about diet and lifestyle changes that impact our overall health, which includes the health of the mouth. When discussing dental decay, I think it is important to understand the real cause of dental decay. There were societies in history, and there are societies in remote areas of the world today, who hardly ever suffered from dental disease. As a matter of fact, these societies rarely suffered from chronic diseases, which are prevalent in modern societies today.
