Baby Bottle Caries: What Every Parent Should Know 🍼🦷
Putting your baby to sleep with a bottle may feel comforting, but it can silently harm their tiny teeth.

These sugars feed bacteria, producing acids that attack the tooth enamel throughout the night.
This condition is known as Baby Bottle Caries or Early Childhood Caries — and it progresses very quickly.✨
