Does eating nuts cause tooth to wear faster? I know they are hard,
but not "gritty", and isn't it grit that actually causes more wear
while chewing?

Seems that in Spain farmers were keen on eating nuts - and all the
time broke the shells with their teeth. Cost them a few seconds, and
their teeth...

Depends on the nuts, how clean they are, and how they are processed.
