Dentist

The kid's had their first trip to the dentist on Tuesday. I admit that I kept forgetting to make an appointment and I know that Will was probably a little old to be having a first dentist appointment but...the dentist said he has beautiful teeth and that they look great. Will did great. He had his teeth cleaned and had a few x-rays taken of his teeth as well. They also put some fluoride on his teeth. He was very cooperative with it all and sat there with his mouth hanging open half the time waiting for them to look in (lol.) I have tried to be really diligent about helping both the boys brush their teeth and the dentist said he could tell that I help because they are in such good shape. Apparently kids don't have the dexterity to brush their teeth by themselves until they can write in cursive. Harrison's appt wasn't nearly as long, only took 5 minutes. Josh went with him and he said that he nearly bit the little mirror they use to look in the mouth in half. They just made sure he didn't have cavities and counted his teeth and put a little fluoride on them. Overall, it was a great trip to the dentist.
