A lack of enamel on the teeth. Many people are unable to develop tooth enamel, like myself.

Well, I can answer that one as it just happened to me this summer. I had tooth decay and was brushing and flosses daily but my right side of my bottom teeth were bothering me. I went to the dentist and he checked it out and said that my silver filling was cracked and it needed to be pulled out and their wasnt anything he could do to fix it unless I had 1,000.00 dollars as they dont get paid by Medicad or Medicare so I had to have it pulled out by a dentist down in the citys so check with your dentist ok.

There could be a number of reasons - you may not have enough calcium or your body is not using the calcium properly - I had to have all my teeth out after my pregnancy as they went all brittle and just broke really easily but this was because I was really sick the entire pregnancy throwing up anywhere from 10 - 50 times per day the whole way through I guess the stomach acids rotted my teeth

Some people are just more susceptible to tooth decay than others even if you have good hygiene habits you can still get decay, but it just imagine how bad it would be if you didn't have good hygiene habits. You could talk to you dentist about possible using a fluoride rinse that could help.

may be the caries (decay) index is high, may be u take snacks between meals, may be you don't brush in a rite technique.. or may be that god loves dentists and want them to find work no matter how people will brush and floss

Diet. Sugar.
And, are you brushing and flossing 100% effectively? I mean no insult by that, beacuse I do not know you, but most people were never taught the correct techniques.

Nothing is full proof. Also some people are just more sepseptable to decay more then others. Some of it can be due to family genes.

If you have diabeties that might be the source of the problem. You might have dry mouth. Talk to your dentist.

I would suggest lack of calcium in the diet.

weak enamel which makes it easy for bacteria to dissolve
