    My problem is gums.. whereas I have very few cavities..only 3 in last 25years. Just had to have 1 replaced 2 months ago, where metal filling was wearing out, replaced now with plastic.

    And I've increased eating food with sugar in the past decade.

    There are times I think a person's body chemistry, more specifically in the mouth, regardless of what they eat, affects probability of cavities.

    My dentist says the electric toothbrushes help with gum health too. DH is a hard brusher, and the dentist says they help because they turn off when he hits too hard...

    And yeah - I'm still rather scared. I have to have one of my fillings replaced at my next check up in March, and I'm already having nightmares about it
