- serverholic 4y agoWhy does it have to be a trade off?
- elteto 4y agoBecause we have yet to discover the advanced dentist chairs used by indigenous people of the past.

Here is one random citation I found searching for indigenous teeth: https://drscottgraves.com/the-secrets-to-healthy-teeth-from-indigenous-cultures/ https://drscottgraves.com/the-secrets-to-healthy-teeth-from-...
- Tycho 4y agoI heard that animals usually have teeth in excellent condition, and the suggested explanation was that eating soft, processed, cooked foods is not what our teeth evolved to do, and so ours fall into disrepair.

If I brush my teeth and then eat only meat for a whole week, my teeth are still incredibly smooth - giving the feeling of having clean teeth. On the other hand, if I eat a piece of chocolate or just one toffifee, in a couple of hours my teeth get very fuzzy - the tongue no longer glides across them smoothly.
