Taylor wasn't too thrilled about the prospect of going because he knew in advance that he was going to get a cavity filled. He's kind of a pansy when it comes to sitting in the dental chair. So he cried and hem-hawed for a while but with some bribery (Lego Indiana Jones WII game), Dr. J got the job done. Dave took a pano of Taylor's teeth. We could see all his new teeth coming in and it looks as though Taylor has inherited the Jackson horse teeth. They are huge!
So as I mentioned, Taylor has issues with the dentist. Dave taught him to raise his hand any time he is feeling pain. It's funny because Dave would just put his hand in Taylor's mouth, not touching anything, and up would come Taylor's hand. Awwww- he's a good kid.
Sad Face...
The girls came out unscathed. Polished and Shiny. No cavities. None for me either. Yesssssss... At one point Taylor had on gloves and a mask, helping suction my mouth. Has a 5-year-old ever been in your mouth with a suction tool? I didn't think so. There is a reason for that...
Sara did a great job.
How could I pass up getting this face on film? Ya think she's a little skeptical about what is going to happen?
Fortunately, daddy knows how to make a kid right at home in the dental chair. Here he is tickling her fingers with the polisher.
Once she got comfy, she cooperated like a champ!
We like to start em' young. Prevention is the key, ya know?
These will be priceless photos one day! It's not every day that Dave is boss-hogged by the mother of his patients, with camera in hand- "Can you move your hand away", "Wait. Stay like that for just a sec", "Move the light", "I can't see his face, can you move your hand again?" Hehehe. He loves it!
Okay, from the looks of this picure maybe he doesn't love it... but he loves me, so by default, he loves it.
See ya in 6 months, Dr. J!

I think you need to blow up the picture of Dave with his encouraging Sara by his big open mouth, and hang it in the office. That should put patients at ease.
