He must be bottle feeding and what ur looking at might me rampant caries. You might be brushing twice but pouching of food, sweets, toffees all lead to Thai. I suggest you to visit a pedodontist to take care of these teeth as well as give preventive therapy to other teeth by protecting them from further caries attack.
