Unhappy Dental Caries in the Breastfeeding Toddler

Hi Mamas,
My daughter has the classic sign of dental caries--her four upper teeth have a brownish line across them. I'm really concerned.

We still nurse quite a bit, especially to sleep at night. I brush her teeth twice a day and after doing some reading at La Leche League International's website I decided to call our dentist.

He agreed to see her (the receptionist was surprised as she's only 21 months old--his youngest patient ever.) We're headed there next Friday.

Have any of you ever gone through this? What was your experience like?

She eats a relatively healthy diet--no juice or soft drinks. Whole milk occassionally, breastmilk, and water.

Thanks for any and all help. I'm so worried.
