There has been some studies... you can read the article I wrote about
dental caries on the LLL website... I think it does a pretty good job of
summarizing the data we have on this issue and the reference section
points to other articles/studies on the subject.
I would assume that the likelihood of the 3 year old sharing bacteria
with the newborn is pretty good, regardless of tandem nursing, and
therefore breastfeeding/breastmilk would reduce the risk of cavities...

She is not thinking about weaning either of them but was just curious. I must admit I have never given it a thought. Any ideas? Experiences? Studies about it?
