I can't answer that question, but I would add the observation that the teeth of fossilised skulls/
jaws show amazingly intact teeth.  Considering the amount of grit these people would have
chewed in their normal diet (100? 1000? times more than us today?), this continually amazes me.

Alex Shvartsman is a dentist who occasionaly helps Paleofood out on dental matters.  Alex, are
you around?
