Initial Warning Signs Of Cavities In Toddlers
Stains On The Teeth These stains first appear as a white spot on the teeth, which if left unattended to, could cause severe ruin to your child’s teeth as the white spot changes color over time to form dark hideous spots. Also, stains formed by tooth cavities can vary in colors from black stains to white color stains.
Pit Or Hole In The Teeth Sometimes, when your child’s teeth are not properly cleaned, it is likely that white spots will form on his or her teeth. These spots may be a sign that a tooth cavity is about to set in. If the spot on the teeth is left untreated, it will worsen, and this will lead to the formation of holes or pits in the tooth.
Sensitivity To Cold And Hot Food And Drinks When children begin to express feelings of pain after consuming hot or cold food or drink, they may be suffering from tooth cavities. This sensitivity on the tooth is caused by the prolonged weakening of the tooth enamel.
Toothache
This is the topmost symptom of a dental cavity. If your toddler is experiencing a chronic toothache that has lingered for days, it is very likely tooth cavity has caused the pain. Any pain in the teeth should not be ignored because it is the leading concern behind all symptoms of dental cavity.
Conclusion Teaching your children proper oral care may prevent certain teeth problems that could affect their health and smile. Also, taking them on routine dental checkups is very important and will help them overcome lifelong oral problems.
