Arrested Vs Active Carries - what’s the difference?

Not all cavities are the same

Active carries
- Soft and spreading
- Light colour (yellow/brown)

Arrested carries
- Stopped progressing
- Dark and hard

🦷 Both still need monitoring
Don’t wait until it hurts

Prevention is always better than cure.
Early childhood caries can happen when milk bottles are used during sleep. Start good oral hygiene habits early to keep your child’s teeth healthy.
