Tooth decay is caused by plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that forms on teeth.

Which one is better stannous fluoride or sodium fluoride?
Both stannous fluoride and sodium fluoride are effective in preventing tooth decay and strengthening enamel. Stannous fluoride offers additional benefits such as reducing gum inflammation and sensitivity. The choice between the two may depend on individual preferences and specific dental needs.
Is there any way to brush your teeth without fluoride and still do the job as good?
Sorta, Flouride helps strengthen the tooth, most cities have flouride in the water supply, if you are flossing and brushing well, for two full minutes twice a day to remove the bacteria in plaque that harms the teeth effectively, your chances of tooth decay is less. If you are prone to tooth decay, I would use flouride toothpaste though, and maybe even a flouride after to give you teeth the strength they need to resist decay.

What rots teeth more diet vs regular?
Diet rots less.Here's how it works. There are two elements at work here: sugars and acids. The artificial sugar in diet soda contribute toward tooth decay, "real" sugar does. Artificial sweeteners are just the wrong "stuff" and not what cavities need to develop.However, all sodas have acids in them, which wear on the enamel of the tooth. This doesn't directly cause tooth decay, i.e. it's not tooth decay just by itself, but it lets sugars, starches, and all else that would decay your teeth to do so more easily.Neither kind of pop would do very much tooth decay if you drink them with a meal (so the soda pop's sugar gets taken off your teeth by saliva and food), drink through a straw (often achieving much less contact with your teeth!), or rinse your mouth out with water and brush your teeth soon afterwards.
