Who says that good nutrition means eating animal fats? Weston A. Price She advocates butter on bread "so thick you can see teeth marks in it," plenty of meat and unpasteurized, or raw, milk.
Those are foods recommended by Price, a Cleveland dentist who traveled the world studying primitive diets.

Dental care elusive Dental therapists working in Alaska have been successful bringing down the rate of tooth decay in the area, but the American Dental Association nearly shut down the program because, the organization claims, only licensed dentists should perform "irreversible procedures" such as filling cavities and pulling teeth.

The organization did not return requests for comment to this story, but the efforts of its Washington branch led the University of Washington to withdraw its support from the Alaskan consortium and kill a planned dental therapist tract at its dental school.
