Anything be done about tooth decay due to prolonged breastfeeding?

Q. My 3 year old son has decay which our dentist has said is due to prolonged night time breastfeeding. His front top teeth look terrible and the dentist has said our only options are extraction or leaving the teath to go black!. We feel that there must be an alternative that will not leave him facing horrible comments from other children. We do not have a great deal of money but would like to find out all our options. Thank you.,
A. Unfortunately your dentist has given you your only options – thankfully these are only the baby teeth.
