Re:Juice may taste good, but unlike the fruit, it’s not healthy by DanBC on Sunday April 30, 2017 @07:35PM (#14234531)
Decayed teeth are painful and need treatment; that treatment carries some risk.

Tooth extraction is the leading cause of child hospitalisation in the UK.

A few of those children will have problems such as hypomineralisation, but many extractions are entirely preventable with better diet (milk or water to drink, not fruit juice or sugar sweetened tea or soda, and especially not in a bottle or sippy cup) and better oral hygiene.

And it's important to start these habits early.
