What should I do if my child gets a cavity?

If your child has a cavity, it is important to take them to the dentist as soon as possible. The dentist will remove the tooth and fill the cavity with a material called composite resin. This material is made up of tiny particles that are bonded together and can be shaped like a tooth. It is then polished to make sure it looks natural. After the filling is complete, the dentist will check for any other cavities in the teeth and advise you on how to care for your child's teeth in the future.
