I understood you perfectly, my comment was for those who might read this, trying to help them find some courage... but you are correct many people have some strong negative feelings about dentistry that are not helped by most of the popular media. I just saw a commercial referring to a 'root canal' as something horrific, and I'm thinking thats crazy because most of my patients fall asleep because they are so boring.

While candy bars and sugary drinks are well-known cavity culprits, many people have been surprised to learn their nutritious, delicious snack bars can be just as bad for their teeth.

Forget about the evidence, I would think common sense should dictate the use of custom mouthguards. I sent letters, recommending custom mouthguards, to the athletic departments of 6 high schools in the area. I did not get one response. It amazes me that stock boil and bite mouthguards are being sold to begin with. How can anyone fall under the illusion that they work?

People are going to eat what they want anywhay, so it is up to us as practitioners to get them to eat the right things. We have to come up with a bar that provides energy, but is relavly non-cariogenic and successfully market it.
