Why do your kid have cavities at such an
early age?

Have you tried to profoundly change their
diet and make sure, that they don't have a
calcium deficiency?

Gummie vitamins? Isn't that the pest for
bad teeth anyways? And the dentist would
def not tell you that you have to check
your kids for calcium deficiancy - he
would be out of work! No doc would ever
do that!
What is eating good? Not a lot of candy
and junkfood is very positive... Instead
of giving them the gummy vitamins (i'm
absolutely sure that they consist of a
high precentage of sugar and nothing
else!) give them spinach (fresh), other
green, leafy veggies, calcium enriched
orange juice etc. To eat / drink. Try to
buy organic. It is alway better to feed
them the vitamins in their natural form,
rather than chemical form. Check
ingredients and nutrition facts of foods /
drinks you feed them. I am almost 100%
sure, that you will be able to influence
your kids teeth and well being positively
by changing their diets. As long as they
are still so little, you will have it
easier to change to a wholesome, healthy
preferably organic diet with lots of
fruits and veggies.

Yes, one gram of sugar for two vitamins
(100% rdi?) is a lot! What I could
recommend you is to really research this
issue (and get ***educated*** in terms of
nutrition, diet, nourishment, etc.), talk
to a nutritionist, diet counsel, etc.
There are ways to get them to eat
healthier. And they obviously need it,
otherwise there would not be such alarming
issues concerning their health. Every
time our body shows us signs that
something is wrong, we should take that
very seriously, especially when its our
precious children!

... Its the nutrition! I am almost 100%
sure... What else would it be? One
doesn't just have "bad teeth", no way!

Noooo! Sky! Not at all! That was not my
intention at all! That was absolutely not
what I meant to say, but nutrition must
have something to do with it, otherwise it
wouldn't be like that, would it? It's
nobody's fault at all! It's just a matter
of improving certain habits for the
better. I didn't mean to hurt you at all,
believe me! Not at all, I am just trying
to help!

And I don't think that the dentist knows
whats best for them, the dentist knows
first whats best for his wallet (we all
need to survive, right?) and second whats
best for your kids. Or he knows right
away whats best for your kids, if you pay
him enough!
And knowing whats best for kids should be
left to parents, not doctors (a la "yes,
doctor, do what ever you think is best for
my kids"). You know what I mean? Don't
get me wrong now...

Yes, I agree with you, totally... I def
hope that he is more interested in his
patients well being than his own! I
guess, as long as you trust your kid's
dentist there's nothing to say. But why
do you think their teeth are bad?
