Will's first visit to the dentist!




































Yes, I know.....he should have gone sooner. Sigh, but I guess my fear of the dentist makes me really hate going, even with my kids! Both boys had their well checks last week and their pediatrician mentioned that it was time for Will to see the dentist. Mike had to have a small cavity filled on Saturday morning and while we were there we made Will his appt. So at 7:30am today, we were there! Will was pretty excited and a tad nervous but I assured him that the dentist is a friend. :)

He did so well!! He listened, he answered the hygienist's questions and seemed to really enjoy the whole visit! He had his teeth counted, had x-rays, his teeth were cleaned, had a fluoride treatment and then it was time for the dentist to take a look. She said his teeth were "very pretty" and that it looks like he does a great job brushing. The only concern is that Will has an under bite and it's causing some rubbing and scratching of the enamel on his top front teeth. At this point there is nothing to do because soon his permanent teeth will come in. So...we will cross that bridge when it comes.
