This is anecdotal, but sometimes stories can help a mom feel more
comfortable with a decision.

Our first five and last two have never had cavities. Our sixth child has had
probably 16 or more. They were all breastfed through toddlerhood, co-slept,
nursed at night and have eaten just like the rest of the family - usually
pretty healthy. His teeth are brushed more than the others, in fact. The
only difference is that he had more bad ear infections and more antibiotics
than the rest of the children.

I am soooo thankful he was number six. By that time the dentist knew it was
just him, it didn't have anything to do with what I was doing.
