Answer 3

consuming lots of sugar and not practicing good dental hygiene. you can get cavities by continuing not brushing your teeth and eating wrong foods

Answer 4

Eating lots of sugar and then not brushing your teeth properly. Also not enough calcium intake can make your teeth more susceptible. Brush in the morning and evening and drink lots of milk.

Answer 5

its takes no more than a couple of weeks for a cavity to build up if you dont brush them right. and my 3 year old cousin, that hav fully grown teeth and everythin and since he drinks milk in the night and sleep with the bottle in his mouth, he ended up having 8 cavities after about one year. :]
