Q: I have a six and a half years old daughter. Two of her teeth have got broken because of tooth decay. Will the new teeth come in their place? If yes, will they also be decayed?

A:It is difficult to tell this. If these teeth are the front ones, then no need to worry but if these are the teeth at the back, we need to retain the space for eruption of permanent teeth in that place. Finally you need to show her to a pediatric dentist.
