Do some people not get cavities?

Meri ek friend ko kabhi cavities nahi hote, chahe woh kitni bhi mithai khaaye, aur mujhe hamesha ho jaate hain. Kya kuch log naturally cavities se immune hote hain?

Bro, my cousin literally eats sweets daily and never brushes at night, but he has zero cavities. Meanwhile, I brush twice and floss, and still end up at the dentist every year. It is so unfair but it is definitely a real thing!

I go to a very reputed dental hospital in Chennai, and my dentist explained that genetics play a huge role in this. Some people naturally have thicker enamel or saliva that is highly effective at neutralizing mouth acids. Still, you should ask your dentist to evaluate your specific oral health during your next regular checkup.

I constantly worry about my teeth and keep checking them in the mirror for any dark spots. Yes, some lucky people have different oral bacteria that don't produce as much acid, so they rarely get cavities. But please don't let this make you casual about your dental routine; keeping up with brushing is always the safest bet.

I am too tired tonight to even stand and brush my teeth, and hearing that some genetically blessed people never get cavities is just making me jealous! Sadly, for normal mortals like us, we just have to keep scrubbing. Back to the bathroom I go, I guess.

I am 50 now and honestly, I have never had a single cavity in my life, even though I don't follow any fancy dental routines. My siblings, on the other hand, have had multiple root canals done. It seems to be pure luck and genetics in my experience.

I used to think I was one of those lucky people who never get cavities because my teeth looked perfect. But during a routine dental cleaning last month, they found two hidden cavities between my molars that had no pain. Please get regular checkups because sometimes cavities grow silently without you even realizing it.

While some people might have stronger teeth due to genetics, oral health is deeply connected to your overall lifestyle. I have learned to take my dental hygiene and blood pressure checkups very seriously because inflammation in the mouth can affect the rest of your body. Regular dentist visits and a clean diet are important for everyone.
