- An 8 Year Old Child Has Extensive Tooth Decay In The Second Molar But No Pain Repairing The Damage Is Expensive And W 1 (59.02 KiB) Viewed 25 times
• An 8-year-old child has extensive tooth decay in the second molar but no pain. Repairing the damage is expensive and will involve placement of a crown or cap because there will be little supportive structure left after the decay has been removed. The parents question the value of this expensive treatment because the tooth is due to fall out anyway between ages 10 and 14 years.
