His Two Front Teeth

Wesley went to see the dentist for the first time on Friday. He was very cooperative and seemed to like everything except for the tartar scraping that the dentist did on his bottom front teeth. He wore sunglasses because the chair faces the window and all the morning sunshine. The dentist gave him these cool sunglasses to wear during the exam and cleaning. I probably would have forgotten that I had my camera but Lydia got it out of my purse.

The dentist x-rayed his front teeth because she thought they were damaged secondary to falling and hitting his mouth. Two years ago, he went very quickly from not walking to walking to running. He did fall and bust his lips several times that summer. He fell in May and chipped a little piece off of his left front tooth. Thankfully the x-ray showed that his permenant teeth are fine. The left front baby tooth is loose but she said it looked good; however, the right one is damaged. She said to call her if he falls again and hurts his mouth.
The dentist (above) was awesome so let me know if you are looking for a pediatric dentist.

Great job Wesley! I think I am more apprehensive about the dentist then he is!

Renee--please let me know who that pediatric dentist is...we have one that we like, but it's good to have a backup in hand. :-)

Sara Grace has a damaged front tooth too from all her early falls as well. Guess I need to book a trip to the dentist for her soon! Wesley looks adorable in his shades!
