Hi lybrate-user if the teeth are indeed that badly damaged, there is no point in delaying treatment. Please follow your dentist's advise regarding treatment. If you have some doubts or queries, you can always discuss them with her and get clarifications; if you still are not completely satisfied, you can always seek a second opinion from another dentist. However, in any case, get the necessary treatment as early as possible.

If your son has decay in his teeth, the doctor is absolutely right. If his milk teeth are not treated properly and if he loses them, the empty space left would lead to malocclusion and other problems. If you are not convinced with the doctors opinion, you can send in his radiographs and pictures. In the future, ask your dentist about fluoride applications to prevent other teeth from decaying. Also make it a habit for him to clean his mouth after meals. Good day.
