We met a whole bunch of lovely Brits on a Princess cruise a couple of years ago. Most of their teeth looked fine to me, but there was the occasional disaster among them.

The horrible condition of teeth in earlier centuries and for most of the 20th century was due to deficient diets meaning sub clinical scurvy and poorly mineralized teeth with poor diets creating rotten teeth. It's not really sugar which is the problem. Chewing gum with sugar in it is fine = it cleans teeth and the dissolved sugar is soon swallowed.

The animal world isn't full of rotten teeth by the time an animal reaches adulthood. It's not a matter of professional dental repairs, it's a matter of eating right.
