Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / April 2007Will baby tooth infection effect permanent tooth
My child, 6 yrs, had a bad tooth infection that caused swollen face. Our dentist did a root canal and crown. Now it seems fine. Will the infection likely cause any damage to the permanent tooth that are developing below, such as tooth defect or decay? Thank you. it depends.

There is a chance of that happening, but there is no way of telling right now. Since the milk tooth was promptly dealt with, complications are less likely to arise. Regards, George We had the infection healed after 2 weeks it happened, is it still in time? I am really worry about the tooth. As I read some web page, saying baby tooth infection can effect the development of permanent tooth bud. For the good of the child stop obsessing over things you cannot control or change. If it has effected the developing tooth, you cannot change that now. If it did not effect the new tooth (much more likely), no big deal. Why not forget about it and wait a few years for the new tooth to come up and see what's there ? ? Signature/ Amatus / > We had the infection healed after 2 weeks it happened, is it still in > time?

Maybe I think too much. I will keep my fingers crossed. |
