Should deciduous teeth be treated?
Under each deciduous tooth is the germ of a permanent tooth. If a deciduous tooth is not treated, the spread of infection can lead to damage to the nucleus of a permanent tooth, preventing its development and germination.

Pit and Fissure Sealants:
Fissure sealants can be applied to the teeth. Fissure sealants are special materials used by dentists to seal off pits and fissures from the oral environment. Sealing the tooth surface protects fissures from bacteria and fermentable foods like sugar and starches to prevent decay from starting deep within the fissures. Any tooth with pits and fissures can be treated, provided the surface to be filled is sound and has not been previously filled. The most commonly treated teeth are the molars and premolars.Sealants are most effective when applied after the eruption of the tooth. Early application ensures pits and fissures are sealed before the decay process begins.
