All of Lydia's teeth have come in perfectly and she has never complained about them so I just never thought about taking her to the
denist. I was looking around for a local dentist because I was tired of driving to
Morgantown. It dawned on me that I should take Lydia in as well. After trying to get
ahold of a couple places, I tried Dr. Hannah on the recommendation of Junior League mom. I call to made sure they took my insurance and they said they had a 1:00 cancellation if we wanted to come in today since they were booked pretty tight until school started. So off we went...
Lydia does not like noise. She hate the sweeper, the hair dryer, even my spin brush. So I was a little worried about the polisher. As expected she freaked out when she heard that sound in the other room (although, I think they were actually drilling). She was covering her ears and refusing to sit in the chair. The
hygienist was so good with her. Promised her that this time she could just use a pink and purple toothbrush with butterflies on it.
She did perfect from that time on. Did exactly as she was asked to and got a perfect report!

Jonathan loves the dentist! I'm glad Lydia liked it too!
Yea Lydia! Braylon loves the dentist too! She looks like you in that last picture Paula.
That's great! I think it's important that we take our kids to child-friendly dentists and have them remember their pleasant experiences so that they won't develop fear in the future.
Before my son went for his first dental visit, I made an effort to look for a Bartlett dentist who is good with kids. Now, my son absolutely loves going to the dentist. In Bartlett, TN, majority of the oral care practitioners are trained to deal with kids.
