Why are teeth weak?
Teeth aren't weak. They are made of a crystalised mineral matrix that is harder and denser than bone. They frequently last for hundreds of years after a persons death. The underlying gums may become infected as may the jaw bones, but the teeth themselves are very strong. Years of neglect, however, can weaken the enamel of teeth and can cause cracks to occur that allow them to become broken and chipped. Of course severe trauma can break teeth, such as falling onto concrete or getting a hockey puck in the teeth.

Is cinnamon gum good for your teeth?
It's good for your teeth in the same sense that all sugar free gums are: they boost saliva flow, which in turn cleans your teeth. Cinnamon has been known to strengthen your gums (the ones in your mouth, not your wrapper), but I doubt that most cinnamon gum uses a lot of authentic cinnamon, think along the lines of artificial cinnamon replacement. If you want the beneficial effects of cinnamon, I suggest brushing your teeth with it once a week. It's very good for you if your gums are weak or diseased.
What causes teeth to decay?
Bacteria left on teeth and gums are the enemy of healthy teeth. When the bacteria break down sugars and starches on your teeth, they leave behind acid as a natural byproduct. The acid reacts with the calcium compounds in tooth enamel, making it weak and thin and expanding microscopic pits and cracks. The weakened teeth are more easily chipped and broken. Left unstopped, the pits the bacteria form are more difficult to clean and the little guys have a protected place to produce more bacteria and more acid. When they finally drill through the enamel, you feel pain as the inner parts of the tooth are exposed. If the bacteria make their way to the primary nerve root for the tooth, a nasty infection results and either a root canal will be done or the tooth will be lost. Teeth can also decay from the bottom up, as food particles and bacteria get lodged in the gums. Under the gumline the teeth are more easily damaged and bacterial growth is very hard to stop once it gets advanced. As the roots get damaged, the gums begin to recede, exposing even more surface to damage.
