Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 4

Abstract

Abstract: It has become increasingly evident that dietary counseling is the most neglected of all preventive measures suggested by the researchers in terms of daily diet on the level of health as well as the susceptibility to a wide variety of diseases including that of the oral cavity. The dental practitioner is faced with a wide variety of diseases including that of the oralcavity. At times the clinician must teach the patient about diet, health and cause and prevention of disease. Successful diet counseling depends on the ability of the clinician to make the patient see the problem clearly and thereby work upon its solution. Objective of this paper is to review the evidence for an association between nutrition, diet and dental diseases and to present dietary recommendations for their prevention.
