This is scientificaly FALSE!

Modern diets have changed the predominance of cariogenic bacteria, leading to increaseed risk of developing decay. These bacteria are passed from parents to child soon after birth. All they need is a suitable refined carbohydrate diet to activate them.
Periodontal disease is not affected to the same extent by diet, and people living primitive lifestyles develop gum disease.

I am somehow starting to believe teeths were made to fall,it is impossible even with modern ora higiene to protect thm from caries without being atooth maniac.

The problem is modern diet, which provides the conditions for decay-causing bacteria to grow, and protective ones to disappear. Decay wasn’t a significant problem 10.000 years ago, despite no toothbrushes, fluoride paste, or dental floss. Consume the kind of diet they did and you would have no problems.

What diet do you recommend,since i truly don’t posses further knowledge on the specific diets from 8000 b.c.?
My goal is to have healthy teeth at least until 50 year of age i don’t think that is too much to ask for anyone and iv allready lost 2 teeth crowns.

Since the development of agriculture from around 8000 years ago, diet has changed dramatically from a low carbohydrate diet to one rich in refined and concentrated carbohydrates. Drinks have changed from water to acidic fizzy drinks, fruit juices, squashes and alcohols.
The best way to think about it, when you buy food, is ‘could a hunter/gatherer have eaten or drunk this?’ If he couldn’t then avoid it as far as possible. There is one exception, avoid frequent honey intake – they had it rarely.

okay if you would be kind enough to answer my personal question. when i was little i had perfect teeth i brushed on and off nothing horrible but when i got my permanent teeth (11 or 12) i stopped brushing for maybe a year and by that time my teeth horribly decayed holes every were i now have porciline teeth but i keep asking my dentist why but he just suggested things that would cost me money and never an answer so my question is what could cause this in such a short amount of time? i am 16

Decay begins when certain bacteria break down the enamel coating of the tooth by producing acid (from sugars in the diet). Once inside they more easily destroy the softer dentine. Some people are unfortunate and the fissures (the valleys on the biting surface of back teeth) are so deep that they go straight into dentine, so the bacteria don’t have to break through the outer coating. In these situations I’ve seen the top of teeth destroyed within months. Breaking through enamel can take years.

Unfortunately bacteria has the potential to cause oral disease. Flossing, brushing and rinsing being the most important to prevent gingivitis, periodontitis and dental decay. Bacteria is always present in the mouth, it is making sure it doesn’t overtake and cause disease is what makes the difference.

Help! The problem is on the bottom of each tooth inside my mouth have a dark yellow-brownish line and its hard to remove it only shows I am changing my diet to non sugary food until i get the money to afford dentist, I am 19 yr old. I am sure the dentist will be able to whitening my teeth and remove all bottom lines right? What can I do to remove them or keep my teeth clean, I use Crest whitening non alcohol mouth wash and Pronamel toothpaste.Im keeping it safe now is it good?

We have found that baking soda works extremely well to get rid of bacteria. We have absolutely no dental problems. See our video on making toothpaste at home. The recipe is super easy, cheap and effective.
