Joseph had a dentist appointment today. Other than being a little extra dirty behind the bottom front and very back teeth, his teeth were nice and clean. No cavities (thank goodness!). Dr. Brooks said he is looking good now … this is the same Dr. that filled all 8 cavities 2-3 years ago. It’s a pediatric dentist, so it’s very “fun”. 😉 Chicken Little was playing on the flat screen tvs above each chair. 🙂
Joseph does have one loose tooth — out of order too — that already has the permanent tooth coming in over it. And, because that tooth is coming in a big crooked (because the baby tooth hasn’t moved yet) Dr. Brooks has given it a 4-6 week “sentence”. Joseph is to wiggle, wiggle, wiggle that tooth for the next 4-6 weeks to see if he can wiggle it out! Otherwise, it’ll have to get pulled. Joseph knows this, but we tell him it won’t hurt or anything … Dr. Brooks will take care of it.
It’s time now, though, to have the girls’ checked out. Given Joseph had 8 cavities, I’m not playing that game again. They go for their first “checkup” June 7th. 🙂 Fun!
