On Monday, Henry had his first visit to the dentist. It was quite a treat, as we visited a pediatric dentist who played Toy Story in the waiting room (that also featured a huge wooden playhouse). The exam was very pleasant and the dentist put Henry right at ease. She showed Henry all of her tools and how she would use them. Then Henry got to pick out the sunglasses he wanted to wear and jumped up on the big pink exam table. The dentist said Henry's teeth look good. He has all twenty and only a few chips (which she said is normal because little kids, especially boys like Henry, are prone to falling flat on their faces).
Henry got a big goody bag full of toothbrushes and floss (floss a three-year-old's teeth? Seriously?) and then the dentist even gave me a goody bag too! I love my new tooth brush.
We asked the dentist about my teeth too. She said that while growing molars first certainly isn't the norm, there isn't any harm in it either.
Before we left, Henry picked out a puppy sticker and a new toothbrush. He can't wait to go back!
