"tragic" is a bit strong.  This type of study may be interesting to you but
to dental professionals it tells them nothing they don't already know.  Of
all of the health services fields, dentistry is probably the only one that
has for many decades been pushing preventive care, nutrition (the hazards
of processed foods), and has been aware that our bodies...teeth in this
case...were meant for a different diet and lifestyle.  We get more training
in nutrition than medical doctors.  We have the "cure" for dental disease
and it is organically and holistically based:  brushing, flossing, avoiding
sugar and overly processed foods.  So I don't think tragic is the proper
word.  In fact it is ludicrous.
