Early Childhood Caries (ECC) is one of the most common yet overlooked dental diseases in children worldwide. It often appears as dark, decayed spots on the upper front teeth, while the lower front teeth remain unaffected. This distinct pattern isn’t random — it reveals how prolonged bottle-feeding, nighttime milk, and sugary liquids silently damage a child’s smile before school age.

Unlike typical cavities that start in hidden grooves, ECC attacks smooth tooth surfaces — a sign of how aggressive this disease is. The combination of frequent sugar exposure, poor cleaning, and bacterial activity (mainly Streptococcus mutans) fuels rapid destruction. Once enamel breaks down, pain, infection, and difficulty eating follow — often before the child learns to brush.

The good news: ECC is entirely preventable. Avoid letting a child sleep with a milk bottle, clean gums after feeding, and introduce cup drinking by the first birthday. Regular dental visits from age one can detect early white-spot lesions and stop the disease before irreversible damage. Protecting baby teeth means protecting the foundation for lifelong oral health.
