A Dental caries become a problem when milk stays on the gums for a long period

buds. However, this is not the most serious consequence.
B Propping the bottle increases the likelihood of choking and aspiration if
regurgitation occurs.
C Ear infections can occur when the warm formula runs into the ear and bacterial
growth occurs. However, this is not the most serious consequence.
