Do milk teeth need to be treated if they become decayed?

Like permanent teeth, milk teeth can also form cavities, be painful and, in the worst case, even an infection (abscess). Infections on milk teeth as well as their early loss can cause problems with the underlying permanent tooth bud.
In addition, some milk teeth can remain up to 12 years of age: it is therefore important to take care of milk teeth to avoid acute painful pathologies and to try to keep them until they fall naturally.
