Dental Care for baby, My daughter is seven and has a bad tooth

Saturday, Jul. 10th 2010 3:37 PM

I just found out that my daughter has a bad tooth.  The dentist told me that my daughter has a large size cavity on her back molar.   The dentist told me not only should he do the filling but because it is rather big he should crown the tooth.

I do not have a problem with doing the filling but a crown on a baby tooth?  I am not sure that is really nessary.  My dental insurance will cover 80 % of the filling but only 50% for the crown.  Should I pay to have it crowned or just get the filling?
