SAN JOSE, CA, June 22, 2012 (Press-News.org) Summer time opens up doors so that people become more active while the weather is so warm. To help patients maintain their healthy, sparkling smile this summer, Dr. Wesley Yemoto, San Jose cosmetic dentist, offers helpful dental tips in addition to the availability of educational videos, articles and an informative blog.
This summer, Dr. Yemoto, dentist in San Jose, CA, urges his patients to protect their mouths not only when participating in sports and other recreational activities, but while enjoying picnics and other get-togethers. Family parties, weddings, and picnics allow for people to get out and enjoy the weather, but Dr. Yemoto informs his patients that many of the drinks included could pose a risk for the health of their teeth and gums.
Dr. Yemoto, dentist in San Jose, informs patients that the sugary drinks they drink, such as energy drinks, sports drinks, sodas, coffee, Frappuccinos and various fruit drinks, can do more harm to a person's teeth than they realize. Soda not only contains empty calories, but it also contains sugars that can harm enamel, which is the protective shell around teeth. Over time, exposing dental enamel to carbonated and sugary beverages, and non-carbonated canned ice tea or fruit juice, weakens and permanently destroys enamel, according to the Academy of General Dentistry.
"I understand that many of us enjoy a coffee in the morning, a Frappuccino, or even the energy boost offered by an energy or sports drink, but these drinks can cause more harm than they do good. This summer instead of grabbing for a sugary, carbonated drink I want my patients to reach for more refreshing and healthy alternatives, such as water," said Dr. Wesley Yemoto, San Jose dentist.
Plaque thrives on the starches and sugars found in a great deal of foods, which, when combined together, create an acid that attacks the enamel on a person's teeth. When this happens, a person will develop tooth decay. According to the American Dental Association (ADA), acid that is created attacks a person's teeth for 20 minutes or more. Dr. Wesley Yemoto, San Jose, CA dentist, wants to further prevent his patients from the harmful effects of tooth decay, and even gum disease.
By offering helpful dental tips while in the office, in addition to the array of educational resources available via his practice's website, Dr. Yemoto hopes to help his patients maintain a healthy, glowing smile this summer, and all year long. Patients can visit the practice's website at http://www.almadenvalleycosmeticdentistry.com, for instant access to more information on various dental topics including nutrition, the benefits of oral health care, Invisalign and dental implants in San Jose, among others.

Dad's brains mean more to his son's success than his money: Study
2012-06-22
Sons of fathers with high incomes tend to end up with higher than average incomes themselves, but new research shows that it's not just dad's money that helps a son on his way.
According to a study recently published in the Journal of Political Economy, human capital endowments passed from father to son—perhaps in the form of smarts, advice, work ethic, or some other intangible—could be more important to a son's success than the size of dad's paycheck.
"We know there's a correlation between fathers' income and sons'." said David Sims, an economics professor at Brigham ...
From the mouths of monkeys: Swab technique spots tuberculosis in non-human primates
2012-06-22
Tuberculosis can be a serious threat to monkeys and apes. A new technique for detecting the tuberculosis-causing bacteria could help in protecting the health of primate populations.
The method can spot TB even among infected primates that show no outward sign of disease, but are still capable of spreading infection to others of their kind.
Existing tests for TB in primates are difficult to apply and give unreliable results, often failing to detect infections.
With the new approach, researchers obtained the first published evidence of TB pathogens in the mouths of ...

Preventing or better managing diabetes may prevent cognitive decline, according to UCSF study
2012-06-22
Preventing diabetes or delaying its onset has been thought to stave off cognitive decline -- a connection strongly supported by the results of a 9-year study led by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and the San Francisco VA Medical Center.
Earlier studies have looked at cognitive decline in people who already had diabetes. The new study is the first to demonstrate that the greater risk of cognitive decline is also present among people who develop diabetes later in life. It is also the first study to link the risk of cognitive decline to ...
