Are Your Food Choices As Healthy As You Think in San Jose CA?

Dr. Yao — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 17:49:59 +0000

The average American diet is loaded with sugar and a disturbing amount of it is of the processed variety. This does not bode well for our overall health, but of particular concern is the effect large amounts of sugar have on teeth causing tooth decay. Our goal at Yao Orthodontics Braces for Pretty Faces is to create beautiful healthy smiles that last a lifetime. It would be a shame if all that time devoted to straightening teeth goes to waste because of a sweet tooth that destroys strong healthy teeth.
