Seems like after reading that article, the answer to my question is just “yes”
Genetic makeup has a factor and sugar has a factor, probably more so.
It makes me wonder after reading this why people aren’t encouraged to increase the alkalinity of their mouth? It seems relatively straightforward.
I knew acids were bad for the teeth, but I never realized more basic environments are actually restorative.
My other thought is I wonder how much well drinking environments differ? My dad once tested our water as a kid, and it was very mineral dense (also evident by our dishwasher). So I have to wonder how much that comes into play.
