I took Joseph to the dentist today for his semi-yearly cleaning… ok… not quite this time around… nearly 10 months in between. Oops!
Luckily, he had no cavities! Woohoo! His teeth were dirty in thee way-back and right behind his front teeth. They did bite-wing x-rays and a full face panel (his first one!)
I got to see all his permanent teeth and baby teeth together via x-ray. He has 2 wisdom teeth… on the bottom. None on top (yet). I only had 1 and Dr. Brooks said there were some genetics to it, so he might end up with only those 2.
I did ask when he has to ‘age out’ of this dentist and Dr. Brooks said most do around 14… when high-5s and Monster’s Inc. movies are no longer “cool”. We certainly won’t be going away from them though… 2 more coming through and according to Dr. Brooks, he should see them for the first time, by age 2.
We’re taking no chances this time around… at age 2 it will be. 🙂
