This is a quotation from Oliver Goldsmith born 1730 died 1774 who suggests that moderation is best in all things. Too much wealth makes one loose human qualities, too much food and liquor is the road to ruin. Morals and ethics decline and in the process, life is ruined. It is argued that there is something profoundly wrong with the way in which we live today. So this quotation applies as much today as it did during the 1700's

Can tooth decay be genetic?

While it is not true that if your parents have a lot of decay, you will also have a lot of decay, it is true that there is a genetic predisposition to tooth decay. This simply means that you may have to work harder to maintain good oral hygiene to prevent tooth decay. Tooth decay is primarily a function of poor oral hygiene. Keep you mouth adequately clean, see your dentist and hygienist frequently, follow their advice, and you will likely experience less tooth decay.
