Dr Sunkara, your Rolling Meadows dentist feels it is essential to bring your child to the dentist for a checkup every 6 months. If your child has a cavity in a baby tooth, Dr Sunkara suggests you bring your child to 32 Dental 4U to have the cavity removed and a filling placed for these 5 reasons:
1. Prevents Infection Spread: A cavity left untreated can lead to an infection that may spread to surrounding teeth or gums. This can cause more severe dental problems and even affect the development of permanent teeth.
2. Maintains Proper Oral Function: Baby teeth are crucial for chewing, speaking, and holding space for permanent teeth. Filling cavities helps maintain these functions until the permanent teeth are ready to come in.
3. Prevents Pain and Discomfort: Cavities can cause significant pain and discomfort for your child. Filling them promptly can relieve this pain and prevent further discomfort as the cavity worsens.
4. Supports Overall Oral Health: Treating cavities early helps promote good oral health habits. It teaches your child the importance of dental care and prevents future issues with their permanent teeth.
5. Avoids Misalignment: Baby teeth act as placeholders for permanent teeth. If a cavity causes a baby tooth to be lost prematurely, it can lead to misalignment of the permanent teeth, requiring orthodontic treatment later on.
Filling cavities in baby teeth is important for your child’s overall dental health and well being. Repairing teeth damaged by cavities can also prevent more dental and other health issues in the future.
