Its nursing bottle caries which occur due to feeding when she sleep. Kindly stop that habit and maintain the mouth hygiene especially before she goes to bed avoid feeding sweetener foods n visit dentist for some preventive procedure for further progression.

Kindly consult a dentist in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations to decide upon treatment. You may consult me in person too. Dental tips: - visit a dentist every six months. Avoid giving her milk during the night. Parents must brush her teeth twice daily, morning & night, up & down short vertical strokes, with ultra-soft bristles, indicator kids brush.

Hi. The condition you are referring to is understood by me as - nursing bottle caries. It occurs because of constant bottle feeding and not cleaning the teeth after the feed. This causes the teeth to undergo decay very fast. Clean the teeth of your child atleast with a wet cotton after every bottle feed. If possible, try to avoid bottle feed atleast reduce the number of times feeding with the bottle. It can definitely be treated. Visit your nearest dentist and get it done immediately to avoid complications of pain and infection.
