Hello, thank you for consulting with us. As you have mentioned that your child is having cavities in deciduous teeth (milk teeth ) and you don't want her permanent tooth to get cavities than first thing you should do is get the cavities removed and get the tooth restored as the infection can spread from deciduous tooth to permanent tooth.
After that you should ask her to brush her teeth twice daily, and also prefer not to eat too much of snacks between the meals, if she feels like then she can take just after the meals. It will help her to maintain her ph of oral cavity.
