Dentist Appointment

Well Ryan had his first dentist appointment. I was so nervous about this. I kept envisioning a child needing restraints. When I called the pediatric dentist to make his appointment they advised me that yes they've dealt with difficult 3 year olds before. I'd prepped Ryan for a while by discussing what dentists do and how they are so much fun! When he was picked up at daycare he was very quiet and said he did not want to go. Oh boy!

We walked into the office and there were toys everywhere. Ry loved it! He settled right in and was very content. The dentist came out and said hello while we were waiting. When we got back there they talked to him for a while and let him pick out a special toothbrush and toothpaste. He got to sit in the "spaceship" and blast into the air! They counted his teeth. Then they cleaned his teeth.

We didn't do much more because of his age and she said his teeth looked great! He'll go back in 6 months and get more done then.

We were so proud of him that when we stopped at the store to get a few items, he got a sugar filled cookie from the bakery. If only the dentist could've seen that!
