I hate diet culture; it is racist, fatmisic, misogynistic and ableist

this is because cavities are caused by kissing as humans aren’t born with the bacteria that causes them and it only spreads from kissing and sharing food but much less commonly that way

I find kisses repulsive so I haven’t been kissed ever

[PT: I haven’t brushed my teeth in 17 years and the dentist haven’t said a single bad thing about my teeth and they are still perfectly white! /End PT.]

You're pretty close!

Cavities form when acids in your mouth erode your enamel. [Source link]

Yes, this is due to the bacteria— but you can get cavities without having kissed anyone or shared food/drink.

"Chances of getting cavities are higher if you:

Drink or eat things with acid or sugar, especially between meals.

Take medicine or have problems that lessen how well your saliva protects your teeth.

Wear braces or other oral appliances.

Can see your tooth roots.

Struggle to brush because of vision, cognitive, or physical problems." — from the CDC [link]
