Ehrm Yes, Indeed. Quite.
Now for teeth health health I of course would recommend a diet rich in calcium as well as eggshell powder. Although eating eggshells off of hard boiled eggs is not palatable so OP won't be able to complete that up for long if his palate is anything like mine. He should save his eggshells and grind them up in a processor, mixing a 1/8 tsp into his milk or coffee or smoothies or pancakes or even juice.
An important factor to remember is that dental hygiene is largely regulated by thyroid, Weston A Price was able to maintain impressive teeth and gums while never brushing. I feel similarly, I only brush and rinse with baking soda, floss every few days, and use an alcohol mouthwash when I am about to shmooze around, and my teeth are excellent.
Milk and cheese have more Calcium than Phosphorus. But yogurt doesn't. Greek yogurt (according to cron-o-meter) has more Phosphorus than Calcium.
Milk has more calcium than phosphate (even if it was high phosphate). I doubt it's the sole cause of the issue - do you eat any low calcium, high phosphate foods?
Fructose helps to control phosphorous intake too.
So meat is better than dairy as a protein source because it has less phospate? I find this hard to believe. Ray said it's the calcium to phospate ratio that matters. Meat has a ratio of 8:1 to 6:1 or something, while milk and cheese have 1:1.
Couldn't you just buy calcium carbonate powder and use that instead of egg or oyster shells? Seems pretty cheap

I agree. I tracked my peat inspired diet for two weeks and I was still less calcium. I'm started adding half a teaspoon calcium carbonate to my delicious milkshakes to combat.It seems next to impossible without supplements to both:
1) Get RDA calcium
2) Have high calcium/phosphorus ratio
Do your teeth get dirty at all, or do you think that is regulated by thyroid too? K2 keeps my teeth smooth as long as I'm not consuming starch or sugar... which does not happen often these days. No amount of rinsing and xylitol after meals has been able to change this.
Recently I had been concerned by transparent teeth enamel and muscle twitching, along with occassional shortness of breath and insomnia. I thought I had magnesium deficiency, so I started supplementing with magnesium glycinate. No effect. Then I rationalized that perhaps I was deficient in D and K2. No effect.
Every symptom just seemed to worsen and worsen no matter what I did. A couple of weeks ago I noticed a new white spot of early decay in my front tooth. It had appeared despite the daily brushing and the "nutritious diet" I had engineered for myself. This was when I realized that I MUST be doing something wrong.
After logging a couple of days nutritional intake, I noticed that my calcium/phosphorus ratio was basically less than 1:1. I started looking up symptoms of hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia, and of course, everything matched. It was time to begin supplementation with egg shell calcium. All symptoms were gone in MERE DAYS. My teeth look strong again, I have no shortness of breath and no more twitching muscles. The early tooth decay disappeared too.
I had thought my calcium intake was adequate from all the cheese and milk I've been consuming. It WOULD have been without the massive amount of phosphate that came with it. It seems that controlling your phosphate intake is absolutely crucial. Peat was right again.
I believe your exhortation...Salt, people. Salt.
I believe your exhortation...
But do you know by what mechanism salt helps this?
