Anecdote time: My great grandmother lived to be 102 and never had a cavity. Kept all her teeth to the end.
One time, an orderly who thought she was just being senile tried to reach into her mouth to take out her teeth (thinking she had dentures). My great grandmother bit that person; hope they learned not all old people are senile!
I’m 40% of the way there. No cavities and rave reviews from my dentist. I brush—-best case —-once a day.
I’d not be surprised if it’s a genetic lottery of tooth enamel, tooth size (small) and mouth biome.
