Tobbie at the dentist

Well, Tobbie went to the dentist today for the third time. This was for her 3 year checkup/cleaning. She went at 1 year and 2 years and will have to go more frequently than other children because of the amount/type/length of time of antibiotics she was on when she was born. The past two years, they just wanted to check her teeth for decay and to keep an eye on palate from being intubated for so long. This year she got her first cleaning and she did such a good job. I was terrified that she wouldn't let them touch her, but she was all about it. Thank goodness for reading books about going to the dentist! She is now a member of the "No Cavity Club" and received an award from the dentist. She was especially proud of this. All afternoon she kept telling Tristan about her teeth. It was too cute. Though there were no cavities, her teeth are starting to show signs of decay. We just have to be extra deligent on brushing the proper way.

Waiting for the cleaning to begin!








Edited to add: I went to the dentist on February 4th and I have a cavity!
