dentist

Brennan did a great job at the dentist this past week. I was so proud of him, especially since our last visit was a bust (he wanted nothing to do with that place and I'll spare you the details.) Since he did such a great job, next time we are going to try an actual cleaning and some xrays. Which will be great, since he has an extra tooth and a half in the lower jaw. A tooth and a half you might be asking yourself.....They should have 20 baby teeth and he has 21 and teeth come in pairs- so you'd think it would be 22, but one tooth fused to another. So the dr said they can't count it as an extra tooth, but I needed to be able to explain this to Adam, so we call it a half. At this point nothing to worry about, there is lots of room in his mouth, but we need xrays to see what will be coming in after the baby teeth. He had his first dentist appt at 2yrs old account of the 'mutant' tooth (that's what I like to call it). But no cavities!
