**Problems with 🦷 Baby Teeth 🦷**
*Problems with baby teeth can lead to issues with permanent teeth. Here are some potential problems:*

**1. *Tooth Decay***
Untreated tooth decay in baby teeth can lead to pain, infection, and premature loss, which can affect the development of permanent teeth.
**2. *Gum Disease***
Gum disease in baby teeth can lead to inflammation and infection, damaging the surrounding bone and impacting permanent teeth.

Premature loss of baby teeth may cause crowding, misalignment, or other orthodontic issues with permanent teeth.
**4. *Infection***
Untreated infections can spread to surrounding tissues and affect the development of permanent teeth.
