Maddi had her first dentist visit on 9/12/14. I had been
preparing her for the visit for a while… letting her know that the dentist will
count her teeth, check for any wiggly teeth (which she is obsessed with the
idea that her teeth are wiggly—someone from school must have had a wiggly
tooth), and see how sparkly her teeth are! I told her they will wear gloves so
they don’t get her spit all over their hands, she gets to be SUPER special
while she is in their AWESOME chair, and gets STICKERS when she is done. So, in
other words… I made the dentist sound like Disney World in her eyes ;) LOL
After hearing all of this great news about the dentist, she
wanted to dress up. *She is such a girlie girl* She originally wanted me to
curl her hair even… not happening for just the dentist, just so you know! LOL
When we got their, Mommy’s turn was first. Daddy and Maddi
played in the waiting room together. I came out and showed her my NEW SPARKLY
PURPLE TOOTHBRUSH and NEW TOOTHPASTE, and she was quite impressed! Daddy’s turn was next, and she got to “hold
his hand, because Daddy forgets to sit still like a big boy.” So she pulled her
chair over next to him and inspected the WHOLE process. Held his hand, watched
Mickey Mouse House club, and even got to brush the dragon’s teeth!?
Daddy was done, and now… it was Maddi’s turn! She could
barely stand the excitement at this point. Her feet were dancing, smiling like
a goofball waiting for them to let her into the chair!? The dental hygienist,
was SUPER fun and SUPER sweet with Maddi. Taking time to show her that her mask
was not scary, showed her all her tools, gave her some COOL sunglasses so the
light would not be in her eyes, and even let her take the chair for a ride.
Maddi giggled through the WHOLE cleaning and thought it was so awesome that the
dentist counted TWENTY teeth in her mouth!? Maddi didn’t have any cavities and
earned an AWESOME princess sticker. She proudly wore it all day, and even
wanted it one her pjs that night. She is anxiously waiting for her next dentist
appointment, and mentions it every time she brushes her teeth. LOL
