FAQS
Why treat cavities in baby teeth if they'll fall out anyway?
Baby teeth play an important role in speech, chewing, and holding space for permanent teeth. Untreated decay can also lead to pain or infection, so treatment is important even for baby teeth.
Will my child need numbing for a filling?
Yes, we numb the area to keep your child comfortable, just as we would for an adult. We also offer sedation options for children who need extra support.
How can I tell if my child has a cavity?
Signs include visible dark spots, sensitivity to hot or cold, or complaints of tooth pain. Regular checkups help catch cavities early, often before symptoms appear.
What happens if a baby tooth's decay isn't treated?
Untreated decay can lead to pain, infection, and even affect the development of the permanent tooth underneath, which is why early treatment is so important.
