A Trip to the Dentist

Tuesday the girls got to take a trip to the dentist. They both did really well. I was surprised at how excited Zoe was to get in the chair and get checked out.

So, once again I uploaded all the pictures in the wrong order. I'm just special that way.

Dr. Lester was awesome and the girls felt really comfortable with him and his staff.

There was a TV up on the ceiling that they could watch during their checkup. The gadget around Zoe's neck are the headphones so she could hear it. Maggie wanted to watch it too.

The hygienist let the girls be in charge of the suction tube. They loved it. I thought Zoe would freak out a bit, but she was a pro and sucked out her spit like she had done it all her life.

When they were all done we got the news that Zoe had very pretty teeth. She just needs to brush a little bit longer to help get all the plaque off. Maggie on the other had has two cavities. One in a baby tooth and the other in a permanent tooth. The baby one is pretty bad and will actually have to be capped. Sounds silly to cap a baby tooth, but it is to help protect the teeth around it from getting cavities.

They were both so good they each got a new princess toothbrush and their own floss. Maggie had such a good time she keeps asking if they get to go back. Crazy kid!!
