Jaws: The Story of a Hidden Epidemic by Sandra Kahn and Paul R. Erhlich
People's jaws are not healthy these days. Food is soft, so we don't have to chew as much. Babies are weaned too early to soft food. People breathe with their mouth instead of their nose. This jaw health causes problems sleeping and breathing as well as other health issues. The authors propose the solution that involves their brand of orthodontic surgery to fix it. they also propose that we do simple things like chew more and breathe through our noses instead of mouths. There seems to be some reasonable items in here along with other bits that appear fairly self-serving.
