No Cavities...

Briggs, Reagan and Eryn went to their new dentist today. For Eryn Jane....her first dentist appointment. Before we got there she was asking me questions about her appointment and then she said, " and mom, then will I spit?" She was awesome. She sat quite still and was very good. She loved the rotating brush the dental hygenist used to clean her teeth.

All the kids did very well, but what do you excpect when they have television screens attached to the ceiling so as they lay back they can watch cartoons. (in this case, scooby doo) I don't know about other kids, but my kids turn into zombies when the tv is on, so they pretty much did whatever the dentist told them to, without much fuss. I don't think they were at all aware of what was going on. But, hey, I'm not complaining. I think the idea is gold! The only problem we did have was that Briggs never got to eat lunch. (my fault....I thought he would have had lunch already when I picked him up from school!) He said he'd be fine, but I should've known better. After the flouride wash he got very, very queezy and ran to the bathroom. Lets just say that mom and son were both very embarrassed walking out of there. But, everyone in the office was very nice and I was very impressed with the whole experience. So, if anyone needs a referral..... We also got referred to a Orthodonist for Briggs. It seems he takes after his mother and will probably need some work done. We'll keep you posted on that as it happens. But, for now....all good, no cavities, and Briggs is feeling much better.
