You will notice discoloration on the baby's teeth, also increased sensitivity to the temperature or food or drink will be a tell-tell sign of a cavity coming along as well.

Areas of demineralisation appear as white chalky areas. Most commonly found around the gumline. In baby teeth they can quickly cavitate so meticulous cleaning and a dab of fluorodated toothpaste on the area at night before bed - no rinsing.

If your baby has a cavity you will be able to see dark coloring or dark spots on the teeth. You should not have to worry about this as long as you are at least wiping off your baby's teeth with a wash cloth. After the tooth has gotten a cavity it will turn brown because it has died.
