Is it possible for a 16 month old to have a cavity in a tooth which is not fully erupted. I noticed some black dot in my baby’s pre molar today which is still erupting right now.

A. Dark spots may also be the result of permanent, extrinsic tooth stains that are caused by exposure to dark foods and drinks. If a child has severe tooth decay, the tooth may darken as well. Our kid's dentist offers restorative and preventive pediatric dentistry treatments to help your child enjoy vibrant oral health.
