Hi, My daughter is 16 months old. We brush her teeths daily with finger brush. But her teeth are pale yellow in color and frontal tooth is already affected by cavities/carious. She is fed by mother's milk still and no bottled milk. And not much chocolates/chips. Any suggestions.

Visit a pediatric dentist soon. Caries has started. It can spread to permanent teeth also.
