Show me those pearly whites!


Alexandra had her third dentist appointment today. The first two appointments really do not classify as real "office visits" although the insurance company was charged. Alexandra was always willing to sit in the big chair, but when it came time for the hygienist to look at her teeth, it was a whole different issue. She was terrified of the "vacuum" and hated the "hose" and "blower" even more. She did like the "paint brush" which was just a fluoride treatment. However, this visit was a whole new day for us. We went first thing in the morning, it was a family event! Alexandra was first, she climbed right up into the chair. Off to a good start. She let Jamie (the hygientist) floss her teeth, clean her teeth with the electronic gadget, use the "hose" and even the "vaccum". Next was the scary scrapper gadget to get a tarter spot off in the front of her teeth - I was in total shock. She was doing great. Next was the "paint brush" and then we were done. She was so proud of herself. She raided the treasure chest on the way out. Great Job Alexandra!
