Default Horizontal Toenail Ridges on a 3 yr old

My 3 yr-old has Horizontal toenail ridges for about a year-and-a-half
now.
She is on a good multivitamin with iron for about 8 months now. How
should I get these to go away? All her toenails have them and they are very obvious.
Should she see a dermatologist or an herbalist? Could this be
serious?
How can I find out what is causing this?

Thank you
Debbie
