Interesting Information On Tooth Decay

Brief is right about the genetics. But it's also the diet that the mother had before birth, and the child had in early childhood.

If there wasn't enough calcium and other teeth building essential minerals around when the teeth were forming, then the child is doomed to a lifetime of tooth decay. Don't blame sugar or fat, blame diet colas which rob the body of calcium.

My Dad did it his whole life, always had good teeth.

So you're saying that most the people on Earth are just props to make people believe that nature is correct?

Interesting.

Floss with a shot of everclear will fix you up.

How would that make sense.

Look at the pics I posted.

THEY ARE FRIGGING BROTHERS FOR CRYIN OUT LOUD

ONE ATE GOOD

ONE ATE POOR

GUESS THE TWO

I have wondered about this. Our ancestors didnt brush their teeth and I am sure were not dealing with cavities all the time, so maybe some chemical we are exposed to or something. Cool thread OP.

With out a doubt fluoride decays teeth.

Though It could be a mix of fluoride, genetics and poor diet.

Nutrition and Genetics

Good grief!

It's not the fn bacteria,,, it's the acids that
cause the tooth to decay.

Baking soda taken on a regular basis will neutralize the
acidity.

The intake of vitamin D strengthens the immune system
-in Northern native cultures found in fish oils
which worked in conjunction with salt and fresh water to
neutralize acids and to fight disease. (caries is also a
kind of disease). = very low caries rates.

Right?

Actually I think they found toothbrushes in Egypt made of sticks.

Most likely it was only the Pharaohs who brushed.

Then again they also found ancient dildos in Egypt. That has nothing to do with teeth, but id thought I would share.

A tooth has root like a plant has root. When the root(nerve) is weak or isn't effective in absorbing nutrient, the tooth will die.

Location too, seems England cause toof. decay. Excuse me I ment teefs decay.

it's always been about fungus.

Actually, proper nutrients in the diet will prevent tooth decay.

Read up on studies performed by Weston Price on various indigenous people diets and the nutrients in the soil where they lived.

Weston A. Price ... It's the diet silly

WHY IS THERE NO GARY BUSEY MEME YET?

How may dentists tell us to forget the damn toxic
waste they put in toothpaste (drinking water) and
instead use vitamin D and baking soda?

Northern tribes had very little dental caries. They
had no fluoride and very little sunshine- but they
DID have cod and other fish high in vitamin D.

England is a low sunlight country- supplement your
diet with vitamin D!

Consume cheddar cheese.

Ya, me too. I don't mind baking soda at all. If makes teeth feel clean without a toothpaste film and freshens the breath.

Lots of mornings, I get up and do tooth pulling with oil when I am in the shower and then I brush with baking soda.

I am almost 60, my teeth are very nice looking, clean and healthy and no cavities. I won't touch florid toothpaste.

I think there is truth to the genetics thing. I do use baking soda and even do some oil pulling while in the shower. I will not use florid. And my teeth at 60 are cavity free and very clean and nice looking.

However, MY GRANDPA HAD PERFECT TEETH AT 90 WITH NO CAVITIES. I have always felt that the natural water that we had when I grew up was a part of this and genetics. It is rare for a 90 year old to have perfect teeth and I am pretty sure that he did not brush everyday--though I don't know his dental habits---so that is a guess.

I heard a dentist say titanium in the soil where you grew up is good for healthy teeth.

Raw honey and raw butter - saw an account on here (GLP) a few months ago by a mother who treated her son's severe cavities with these and the teeth actually regenerated - cavities disappeared!

I make a jug of organic green tea with raw honey every day for me and my son to drink. Plus we keep a jar of organic virgin coconut oil in the bathroom. Swishing a spoonful in the mouth for around 15 minutes "pulls" infection from the body. Another handy tip I picked up on GLP!

Didn't people use to brush their teeth with urine before the 20th century? I wonder what that does.

Well,I must add there: coconut oil!!!!! Do a paste with those two ingredients!!!!!
IT'S AWESOME!!!!! Your mouth will be cleaner for much more time than with toothpaste! Trust me!

A very wise thought!^^
Yes, that lead us to the lack of nutrients and proper nutrition issue...

I've had multiple dentists tell me it's the bacterial flora in the mouth. Some people have too much of the bad kind of bacteria in their mouth, causing decay. I kind of believe this, as my parents were religious about my tooth brushing and flossing, and I wasn't allowed things with added sugar (like soda, candy, etc.), and they gave me calcium vitamins and milk/yogurt, but I still got cavities as a kid. I get one every now and then as an adult, as well (and I still don't drink soda, eat candy, do brush with a Sonicare and floss at least 2x a day).

My mom's dentist flosses after every single time she eats (reportedly 6x a day) because brushing doesn't get between the teeth...I might need to start doing this as all of my adult cavities are between the teeth, and mine are close together.

I'm going to try out these oral probiotics someone mentioned on a thread for halitosis the other day that supposedly should help restore proper flora in the mouth. Though some medical journal studies I read about it said they hardly make a difference, some people report positive results, so I'll still give it a go.

Probably from eating all the Spotted Dick.

Diet is a factor, but mostly it's genetics.
