So the records of tooth decay we have during the beginnings of agriculture are not “traditional”? Curious where your line of “traditional” is. I have a hunch it lines up with your dietary preferences.

Maybe you could start this line of inquiry by comparing Price's research with these records of which you write.
A really good start is to only buy and eat things that contain one ingredient. Mostly everything else is bad for you (and your teeth).
# Yes, yes, there are exceptions, but I'd say it holds true at least 95% of the time.
EDIT/UPDATE: I was actually being serious. Fruit, vegetables, grains, meat. Cook and eat those things, and you'll do fine. Of course you can combine them, but do so at home so you control what's actually in there.

Worth noting that any modern fruit you'll find in a shop has been bred for generations to contain far far far more sugar than they would have had prior to industrialisation.
