Second opinion: This HealthTap platform is not set up for second opinions. If you wish to obtain a second opinion from a dentist on HealthTap, you need to use an inbox consult or HealthTap prime. Even better find a second local dentist who can examine your child and give you a comprehensive second opinion. Try to get the second opinion from a dentist who specializes in children.

OK: See another pediatric dentist in Bellwood. One cannot tell if your child needs this care without an examination.

Don't wait: Cannot give you an opinion without examining your child & x-rays. Important that all children see Dentist, preferably a Pediatric Dental Specialist (Pedodontist) for initial exam @ Age 1, and every 6 months after that. If you are unsure of Rx Plan, seek 2nd opinion w a Pedodontist ASAP. Please do not put off treatment. By the way, 1st Orthodontic examination Age 7. Best of luck.
