Mom of a 1 yr 7 m old girl

Q. My daughter drinks her last milk in milk bottle at 9:30 or 10 and then sleeps after 12 am (till 12:30 or 1). Now I'm not breastfeeding since 3-4 days so when she wakes up in the middle of the night, I just put my hands on her and make her sleep. If she completely wakes up I give her water then put her back to sleep. Again she wakes up at 8 or 8:30am that time I give her milk in milk bottle then she sleeps again and wakes up at 10 approx. I'm worried what if she gets cavities? But even sleep is important. I brush her teeth after she wakes up after 10 while bathing her. I brush only once. So what should I do that her teeth doesn't get cavity later?
