Makenna went to the dentist for the first time today. (She's had a lot of firsts lately) I figured it was time to get her checked out now that she is three. Little did I know that she should have gone by one year old. Personally, I think that is a little young unless you can tell that there are problems but that is just me;) Anyway, we were trying to hype it up and saying she GETS to go to the dentist! It was a good first experience though. They had tons of toys and things in the waiting room so she ran back and forth trying everything until they called us back. We told her before we got there that she would have to open her mouth wide but when the dentist asked her to open up, she had her teeth clenched. It took awhile but she finally opened up wide. He said that she has great teeth, no cavities and everything is lined up perfectly. Yay!! And of course she got to pick out a toy in the toy box! She doesn't have to be back for a year when she gets x-rays and a cleaning. Phew! I'm so glad that went well. You just never know with a three year old;)

Aw! Thats good that she did so well! I've been dreading the trip, which is why I have probably been postponing it! I don't really see teh point since they lose all these teeth anyways?! Oh well...guess thats why I'm not a dentist!
Good girl! I am glad her first experience was a good one. Maybe she won't be afraid from now on. I'm proud of you Kenna Boo.
