The dentist

October 10 2012

We took the boys to the dentist.  We were a little worried about two of Luke's teeth coming in angled right at one another and really neither one making much progress.  The dentist told us to wait and see.  Just what I probably knew she would say but needed to come and hear for myself.  

Drew recently read that sometimes a child gets the mother's teeth in the father's mouth.  That the room for teeth to come in could be different and thus, crooked teeth.  Who knows, but I do know that mothers tend to worry and this visit set my mind at ease.  

He did great and let the dentist quickly look at his teeth.   15 months is a little young to take him, but our time seems to be getting away from us.  And he needed to go. 

Noah has been once before around 19 months old, but needed an annual checkup.  We are happy to report he no cavities, loved the x ray part of the visit, and has asked to go back to the dentist several times.  It could have something to do with the fact that he got 2 toys from the toy bin, and a trophy for no cavities.  Crazy boy, who likes the dentist?  HE DOES.
