[quote=Anonymous]We had exactly the same situation at the same age. Our dentist told us that if it was one of the baby teeth that would fall out in the next couple of years, he wouldn't recommend filling it. Because it was going to be so many years before it came out, though, his recommendation was to fix it. He said there was a chance it would be just fine if left alone, there was no way to say for sure, but that if it got worse it could end with a root canal, which would be more traumatizing for him than having a cavity filled. We erred on the side of a filling, and DS was totally fine.[/quote]
