I was with you until this point. The stomach is highly acidic. The natural next step food takes in our bodies is into an environment that would destroy our teeth. It does not necessarily follow that food which damages our teeth is bad for the rest of us. If anything, your potato/rice examples would suggest that the opposite is true.
I agree tooth decay is largely a result of our diet, but that doesn't mean we have to change our diet to reverse/prevent tooth decay. I have a garbage diet and still manage to keep my teeth okay. I'm not in a rush to overhaul how I interact with food.
