Yep -- we went to the dentist. I took all four children. Yes, all four children. They like going to the dentist, they fight over who gets to go back first. They love Dr. Sabrina.
Alek, Sarah, and Rachel had great check-ups. No cavities. Alek did get several sealents, he has had a lot of teeth coming in and with the deep grooves we just aren't taking any chances on his molars.
Ella will be going back next week and getting two fillings on her two front teeth. There is a bit of decay there. She did great with the counting and the little scraping, but the moment the hygenist turned on the "Tickle Brush" Ella calming started climbing off the chair and politely told Jenny -- "I don't want that". There was nothing we could do then. She wanted nothing to do with that tickle brush, nothing at all. This however was a big improvement over 6 months ago when I had to chase her down as she ran out of the building.
Next week she is getting Demerol and Phenergan on an empty stomach and little sleep -- she won't have a chance.
Tomorrow we will do regular school. I need the rest. |
