How to reduce teething pains and does teething also effects fever or not? How to controlthem - #26280

hello ranvit, When babies have dental issues like white spots, black lines, or decay on teeth, it can be concerning for parents especially since they may not be eating sweets or brushing independently yet. In infants and toddlers, early childhood caries (ECC) can happen even with breast milk, bottle feeding, or juice especially if the baby falls asleep with milk or doesn't have the mouth cleaned afterward. The sugar in milk (even breast milk) stays on the teeth and feeds bacteria, leading to decay. Some common reasons for baby dental issues ,, Feeding at night without cleaning the mouth Giving sweetened liquids (juice, honey, sugar water) Not cleaning gums or teeth after feeding Genetics (weak enamel or thin outer layer of baby teeth) Delayed start of oral hygiene habits Even if a child has not eaten sugary foods, the natural sugar in milk and poor cleaning can still cause decay. What parents can do at home, Wipe baby’s gums with a clean, soft cloth after each feed Once teeth erupt, use a soft baby toothbrush and water twice a day Avoid bottle-feeding at night or letting milk sit in the mouth while sleeping Limit sweet snacks or juices (even fruit juices) Visit a pediatric dentist by age 1, or at first sign of tooth decay There is no need to panic baby teeth can be protected with early action. Most dental experts agree that good habits and regular dental care can prevent major problems. If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, Regards, Dr. Karthika

It’s better to consult Pediatrician
