Just wondering if anyone can help. DD1 (6) was on immunosuppressants for 18 months for severe eczema and while she was on them, she needed 3 fillings in baby teeth. She's been off them for a few months now but was at the dentist today and she has a cavity now in a molar, so a second tooth and a much bigger deal (and pain) to get a filling.
I'm convinced that there must be a link between the medication and the fillings but neither the dentist nor the registrar dermatologist that I asked knew of any link. She doesn't have a sugary diet and we're strict on teeth brushing (I still brush them a lot of the time!).
She only has juice once a week, on a Sunday at my mum's and she drinks it with a meal. She rarely has sweets and never lollies. Smoothies are a rare treat, not a regular occurrence. The only regular sugary thing is Petit Filous - she would have one a day but she doesn't drink milk so I don't want to drop yoghurts altogether.
Anyway, was wondering if anyone had heard of a link.
TIA
