One man’s quest…
I am on a quest to stop the number one disease in the United States of America and the World. In the US, the number one chronic disease in children is dental disease. Shocking, isn’t it? My name is Joe Kravitz and I am a dental specialist called a prosthodontist. In Latin, it means a dentist who makes false teeth (prosthetic teeth). All of my wife’s friends and my family do not know what I do. And that’s good. For if someone knows what a prosthodontist is, they have serious issues. Even after 14 years of college, I have seen people with severe pain, bleeding, loose teeth, missing teeth, cracked teeth, swollen faces, communication issues, taste problems, and pain in their pockets too.
See, over the last 20 years I have seen suffering, pain, grief and failure. Dentistry has failed the public. Yes, we have made great advances in how to fix things, but not in prevention. We still have the same old, same old. Brush your teeth twice a day and floss. Well, it doesn’t work. Just ask yourself, your family, neighbors, and coworkers. Every patient in which I have removed all of their infected teeth, has brushed every day. In those patients: they have brushed, and lost. Lost body parts, their teeth, their smile, and their confidence. And lost money too.
I can fix people’s mouths. I can do a great job. However, we as dentists are at a great disadvantage. We cannot prevent the germs in your mouth from destroying your teeth, gums, and smile. And the dangerous germs in your mouth are contagious. They can spread to other people.
I need your help. I need your help to “Mouth Off” and tell all your friends in Facebook, etc… to support the cause - the cause to stop dental disease. We can do it. But we need to do it together. It takes an understanding of the information in my remarkable book, Dirty Mouth!!! Buy the book, implement the strategies, and spread the cause. Spread it to all of your family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors. Help them out. Help the cause. Be bold, stand up with me, and Mouth Off!!! To be continued…
