Similar. I don't eat low carbs, just almost no bread, and my teeth never get cavities

Yeah but that can also be because of genetics. I eat bread everyday and still never had a cavity

I note that birds, which evolved eating grains, don't have teeth

Birds originally did have teeth. Beaks are thought to have replaced teeth because they serve the same purpose but are much lighter, and more importantly because they develop faster than teeth. Birds considerably predate grasses (which are what grains are).
