Tooth decay on two front baby teeth

Thursday, Jun. 10th 2010 11:04 AM

My six year old daughter has a cavity between her two front up teeth.   Since the cavity is between the teeth both teeth have some decay so that a filling is required for both.  This will be her first filling since she never had cavity before.  The dentist said the cavities are small right now.  So I wonder if I should wait and see if they get any bigger before making her have dental work on teeth that will fall out when she is a little older.

My daughter is not so good at the dental office and I would like for her to be older before having to have much more then the cleanings.  Is it okay to wait it out for a while and see what happens or just do the filling now why she is still so young.
