Today was a big day for Emily. This was the first time that she has ever been to a dentist. She does not have all of her teeth yet and so there is very little that they can do anyway. I just felt that it would be best if we started good oral health early! This particular dental office is one that specializes in children and so it was perfect for her. They had a playground inside the office and she got a lot of little "gifts". I kind of looked like the dorky mother taking pictures of her kid's first dental visit but I didn't care. I wanted to have pictures for RT to see since he has to work during things like this. (He was with her the other day for the first time in her life to get a shot. He got to see how heartbreaking it is.) Anyway here is how today went...
This is Em playing while she waited to be called back
Here she is getting her teeth brushed. They don't do a full cleaning on kids that are this young. They also don't do x-rays this young either. So basically they just brushed her teeth and had a look at them.
This is when the actual dentist came and checked her out.
After everything was done with, Emily received a goody bag with Princess stickers and a new toothbrush. She was very excited to get her bag.
She did so well today and I was so proud of her. She was not scared at all and was such a good girl the whole visit.

She looks so happy in that last pic! I am glad the dentist was a success... maybe you'll get lucky and it will always be this easy! We have got to get together soon and catch up!
