Dethero Enterprises writes, publishes and markets patient education materials and markets products
that enhance methods of eating. Our customers include hospitals, universities, clinics, physicians
and individuals.
Our products are helpful to patients of oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthognathic surgery or
any other jaw surgery. Our handbooks and eating accessories are welcomed by those who cannot chew,
whose mouths are wired shut, and who require a liquid diet or soft food diet. The non-chew recipes
are readily prepared from standard food items found in most grocery stores and supermarkets.
Recipes in our handbooks include selections from all basic food groups and are suitable for preparation
in a blender or food processor. Both Dinner Through A Straw and
Let's Do Lunch (and other meals) have been used with patients having
corrections of malocclusions, those requiring jaw realignment, those with scleroderma, cancer, TMJ
(Temporomandibular Joint Disorder), AIDS, and any condition that makes chewing impossible or difficult.
Testimonials from physicians, registered dietitians, and registered nurses acknowledge that these
recipes are high in carbohydrates which expedite healing. Patients find the recipes to be tasty
and filling. They can enjoy most of their favorite dishes while on the food program.
Our Products Include:
Dinner Through a Straw
