The Fée des Dents Arrives Unexpectedly

Dental woes....it isn't enough that I usually break teeth

at night, while Dear is away, but now dental trouble starts for the boys. Really, it started last year when Will broke Tristen's newly acquired adult front tooth off in a freak golfing accident! Yes, six months later he had to have a root canal and cap -not good. Today, Jacob (yes the want to be dentist) had a small cavity, in a baby tooth, thank goodness. He gets all frozen the dentist takes position - stops and says I think this will be an extraction this tooth is loose - so, the filling that wasn't!

Jacob was a little upset because the dentist put a special mirror in place, so he could watch the procedure! He wanted the filling so he could watch!!! Disappointment over not getting a filling. But he did get new x rays for his wall and a pack of gum - the smile returned ! As you can see from the picture that baby tooth was huge!

Well, we miss you, Dear. You would have laughed if you could have seen the look of utter disappointment on Jake's face when Dr. R said No filling! The pack of gum managed to divert his attention - He was asking if he could watch someone else get a filling then! I hope he stays focused! Enjoy your day all and may no dental woes be in your future.

Oh, yes ,Will survived after striking his brother with the golf club -many nasty looks were given by his older brother as we raced to the after hours dentist. Tristen survived the root canal - with the help of laughing gas. All was well. And Jacob, well, the Fée des Dents is coming - What could be better!
