DS2 has got really awful holes in his teeth. I've taken him to the dentist 3 times now as they've got steadily worse. I first noticed when he was about 18m old, when there was just 1 tiny hole. Within a week there were 3. Now his back top two teeth are more hole than tooth, the next ones along are going the same way, and I can see small holes forming on lots of his other teeth.
The dentist has said each time that this is unfortunate, but that there isn't anything that can be done at this age (he was 2 last week). I haven't seen the dentist for about 4 or 5 months now, but am wondering if I should go again. It just seems so awful to be doing nothing.
No idea about the cause. DH and I have good teeth, as does DS1. DS2 had very severe reflux (vomiting 20+ times per day until over 12m old), and also had strong antibiotics after birth (Gp B Strep issues). He's also an avid breastfeeder, and didn't take any solids until over 1 year old (due to the reflux), and still feeds a lot now. We do brush his teeth with regular kids toothpaste twice a day, but not after every milk feed. I don't know if this would help, or if the damage has already been done?
Would be interested to hear from anybody else with a similar problem.
