My son had cavities at 3, likely resulting from a lack of minerals and breastfeeding until 3.
UK NHS diagnosis was to pull 4 front top teeth out.
I asked a relative (a doctor working in a public hospital but not a dentist) who advised to absolutely don't do that without even seeing him in person (COVID lockdown BS).
A local private dentist agreed and wanted 5k to fix his teeth (remove cavities, put fillings under general anesthetics).
In the end we went to Russia and got it done for 1k.
That's public healthcare for you!
His teeth have been fine for years, not long until he loses them naturally.
