1st Dental Visit

Annabelle had her first dental visit on Friday. I was curious as any mother of a 2 1/2 year old would be if she would fuss and cry, but she was great! She laid on the chair, let them in her mouth without any problems, and they actually cleaned her teeth!

When the hygienist was done Annabelle asked for more! She loved when the dentist counted all of her teeth and was trying to count along with her. She was so proud to sign her name to the wall of No Cavities!

Our biggest accomplishment there was that Annabelle gave up her pacifier! The dentist was concerned that the pacifier was creating a gap between her bottom and top teeth. If we wait until she is 3 the gap may not go back to normal and eventually would lead to braces. I had the dentist tell Annie the bad news. So now if you ask her what did the dentist say, she says, "The dentist said no pacifier." They have a dog at the office who takes all the pacifiers and Annabelle gave the one she had to the dog. As we find them around the house I am collecting them so we can bring them to the dog again. This hasn't been easy but she is being such a big girl about it!

I am so Amazed she did this with a great attitude! Most kids don't like the dentist! I hope her dentist is a good as the one you went too! "Bob the Painless Dentist!" By the way, he got a good report on his Cyber Knife cancer treatment! He called us yesterday. Keep praying for him!
Tell Annie way to go!
Love ya,
Mom

She is amazing! The picture are so cute. Grandpa found one of her pacifiers in our car, under the seat. We are keeping it for a memory:)
