While taking a stroll downtown. I came across this dentist place. The phrase on top is rather interesting. "口腔 kǒuqiāng" translates to stomatology, mouth, oral, and oral cavity. This is one of those times where a direct translation doesn't sound well. I'm trying to think of a context where it doesn't sound awkward as a compliment. Example: I like your smile and you have a beautiful mouth!? I also imagine if you type in the words "love mouth" in any popular search engine some kinky images will appear. Anyways I would assume the better way for this dental office to display its motto is "People love oral care".
