to be fair, everyone's teeth are different - some people just get blessed with healthy teeth, and if you don't eat messy, you might be good with a sip of water in between morning / evening tooth brushing. After all, cave men also didn't get caries in their 20-something years of life at least.

While it's true that some people inherit the genes for harder enamel, which goes a long way toward determining how scrupulous a person has to be about their dental hygiene, it wasn't until very recently that we had diets filled with refined sugar.

Hey, there's no sugar in MY diet. Only high fructose corn syrup.

In everything.

This is why instead of brushing and flossing I just gnaw on roadkill.
