I run a list for that deals with dental health in breastfeeding children.
Its at
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/veryyoungkidsteeth/
We address these kinds of questions all the time. I would encourage you or
the mom to join and ask the question there.  We have very well-informed moms
and a few health professionals, and a wealth of links and research.
There are many other ways that this family can be pro-active against
increaseing the cavities, other that night weaning.

> Nobody is recommending this child completely wean - it is realized that
breastmilk is probably saving this child's life due to all of the
allergies - but the night nursing is being recommended to stop.
