Apparently, once you turn two years old you are eligible for a teeth cleaning. I missed the two year-old boat, but made it in time for when Lily turned three! She had her very first dental appointment. While I was silently, internally freaking out about her being in the chair, Lily was a champ and took the whole thing with pride. The dental assistant just told her that she was polishing her princess teeth and making them sparkle. That did the trick because Lily sat as still as could be for her whole appointment. She was absolutely perfect and I couldn't have had a more "proud" Mommy moment.
Cleaning
Flossing and Flouride
Scraping
When all was said and done, Lily got a prize for being such a great sport. She was super happy and couldn't wait to come back to get her "princess teeth" all sparkly clean!
Now, only if I could learn from Lily's example and not freak out in the dentist's chair!
