Yes it is right. Because it is so early nt front teeth eruption time is 6 to 7 years of old. So RCT and crown or composite build up is the last option.

We need to see the extent of damage. It is extremely difficult to perform root canals in such young children without nitrous oxide sedation Try and consult a good paediatric dentist for proper management.

Yes. Doing root canal and maintaining the tooth is the right option. Permanent tooth will erupt at age of 7 yrs. So need to treat this deciduous (milk teeth) so as to avoid infection of permanent tooth and maintain space for erupting tooth. You may also require to put a cap on top of it.

Yes it is ... as natural teeth act as space maintainer's for your permanent teeth ..when the tooth resorbs... the permanent tooth would erupt straight and not malaligned. .. in later years ... secondly ... milk tooth if removed before time ... the tooth would erupt .. not straight ...the alignment would be hampered..

Yes, it is right for your baby because she is too young to remove her primary teeth. If you will remove it she may not develop her jaws properly. Regards.

Since your baby is 3 years old the broken teeth will be a milk teeth and permanent teeth are yet to come. It takes about 3-4 years. If the broken teeth is mobile it could be removed and further treatment can be provided. Since the doctor are advised for root canal treatment you can take it up.
