I may add that one thing they didn't have back then was sugar.  Hence, no matter how little
you may have brushed your teeth, it all likely hood, you wouldn't have gotten many cavities,
if any.  I have a friend that almost never brushed his teeth and didn't go to the dentist in
about 10 years.  He was also on a NO SUGAR diet for that entire time.  He just reacently had
his teeth cleaned.  (It took him three visits, and laughing gas.)  However, he had after all
that abuse to his teeth, ONE cavity.  Says something for a no sugar diet....


Always in service,
