Hearing that your child has a cavity can be stressful, but tooth decay is one of the most common childhood ailments. The key is treating it promptly before the infection spreads, causing pain or affecting the developing adult tooth underneath.
Why Fix Baby Teeth if They Fall Out Anyway?
A common misconception is that cavities in baby teeth don’t matter. In reality, baby teeth serve as crucial “space savers” for adult teeth. If a baby tooth is lost too early due to severe decay, the surrounding teeth can shift, leading to complex orthodontic problems later. Furthermore, an untreated cavity can cause severe discomfort, affecting your child’s sleep, nutrition, and school performance.
