Iceman Had Bad Teeth

The summary contains almost the entire FA. But there is this...

In the late Stone Age, humans were increasingly incorporating coarsely ground grain into their diets. The uptick in starches, the researchers suggest, could explain the increasing frequency of cavities in teeth from the time?a problem that's been with us ever since.

In other words, it was no longer the "Paleo diet" and a shift away from it is what brought about bad oral health.
