Tooth doctor

The kids had their second visit to the dentist yesterday, and everything went well. We had only been one time before, but the kids instantly ran to the play area and got down to business. When it was their turn, they weren't ready to let the toys go...


Kestian was up first, and he did a great job letting the hygienist clean AND floss his teeth, except he kept getting his tongue everywhere. It was like watching a blind worm flailing about using its body to feel what was around it since it couldn't see.


Adelaide was up next. She did a good job too, although was clearly more apprehensive about the situation. You could see that she was conflicted. She would try to open her mouth, but would keep her lips covering her teeth like saran-wrap over a casserole. The hygienist was great though and was able to work with her.


Then the kids got to wait until the dentist could come in, count their teeth (20 each!), and proclaim no cavities for all!
