Really? I've heard people say the opposite and pictures of skulls in medieval mausoleums seem to have better teeth than a lot of modern people, especially because they ate a lot less sugar.

Might be a mixture of factors. More wear and tear, but fewer cavities and like issues? Just a guess, I know very little about pre-modern teeth.

Yeah same, idk what I'm talking about, but your idea would make sense.
