[quote=sdduuuude]Along those lines – I have to ask, seriously. Why fix a cavity in a baby tooth ?
[/quote]I think it depends on the tooth. My daughter’s cavity was in her molar and those teeth don’t come out until kids are about 10 – and some kids don’t lose them until they are 12. Even though it was a very small cavity, she is only 4 and it could become a big problem by the time she is 10. If it had been one of the front teeth that come out at 6ish, the dentist would not have bothered to fix it.

[/quote]We were told, when we asked this question of the dentist, that the issue is infection. As the cavity gets worse, it can get infected, and have implications with the heart.
(Trust me – we asked a LOT of questions before agreeing to extracting 2 baby molars.)
