dentist visit story
I just wanted to share. I took Jake to the dentist yesterday to get a filling.
He had a hole in his tooth from the way it was formed, no cavity yet, but they wanted to fill it. So anyway, this is his second filling. He did awesome!! He jumped right up on the chair and didn't cry one bit and cooperated fully! I didn't even have to sit with him! Not only that, they gave him a little hand mirror and he watched the whole thing (except the needle part - the dentist's arm got in the way - probably on purpose!). He watched the drilling, the filling, - everything! He would move that little mirror so he could get a better view. I was stunned! The receptionist said that some kids feel better if they can see what's going on. Meanwhile, my DH wouldn't even be able to handle being in the same room while it's happening to Jake. LOL! I'm so proud of him. What a trooper! Stephanie Jake and Ryan 9/3/99 |

That's great Stephanie! Jake did much better than I would have. I can't
stand having anything done to my teeth, especially a filling....yikes! He's much braver than I am. Andrea twin girls-Madison & Jordan 3/22/00 I just wanted to share.

dentist visit story
Wow, Stephanie, I am impressed! I cannot even tell you how much I dread
Bradley's first dental visit. I will be putting it off as long as possible. My next door neighbor has her son sedated because he freaks out so bad and I can see us doing that. When we try for a haircut he has a complete MELTDOWN. Anyway, good for Jake. I hope it works for us at the same age Ellen -------- Erin 6/26/95 Bradley & Alex 10/5/00 |

Speaking of haircuts... Today on Oprah they mentioned that www.supercuts.com has 50% off coupons. I thought it would be great for kid cuts. ~Kimberly Mommy to Alexis Iliana 07/17/99 and Emma Elidia & Aislyn Gabriela 10/01/02 come see us... http://www.babiesonline.com/babies/a/aislynemma/ |
