A visit to the dentist

I decided to take Jacob in to a local pediatric dentist for a complimentary "Happy Visit." He now has 10 teeth and 2 more molars on the way.

Jacob did really great at the dentists office. The dentist examined and cleaned his teeth, did a fluoride treatment and recommended that we start saving for braces. :( Jacob's baby teeth are pretty crowded on the bottom but look beautiful on the top. Unfortunately, beautiful now means trouble later. His top teeth are really snugly fit. No gappy smiles for my boy. :)

So, for now, we just keep on brushing and start flossing. Have you ever tried to floss a 1 yr old's teeth?

We left the office with a "goodie" bag filled with a Tigger toothbrush, dental floss, Baby Bling Vanilla Ice Cream flavored toothpaste and a superhero flosser. They even gave Jacob a coin to use in the prize machine. We picked out a little "egg" with some dino sticker in it. Not to bad for free!
