Dentist Disaster

Addi went to the denist last year and had two cavities. Two, let me tell you that will make you feel like a horrible parent! The dentist was quick to say that she has very deep centers in her teeth and should have some seals put over the top of them but first needed to have the two cavities filled. We did the first one in January and Addi did great!! I asked Addi if she wanted to come back for the second one before or after her birthday. She said a firm after. Okay, the Monday after her party we headed to the denist first thing in the morning for what turned out to be a disaster. Addi would not sit still in the chair, she would not keep her mouth open, she would not stop moving her head. The denist was able to numb it up and start drilling before we had to stop. It just was not going to be okay to continue. He referred us to a pediatric dentist. They saw is the next day. On the way home from the denist Addi's gum, lip and side of her mouth were still numb and she ended up chewing on all of it. It was horrible and so sad. It looks gross now but it is not infected and should go away any day now. Addi did much better at the dentist office and once the swelling goes down from chewing on her face we will be good to go on getting the tooth fixed.

I will say after all this tooth drama Addi is one of the best brushers I know!!
