Wesley's 1st time going to the Dentist

During the jam packed "week of fun" we had scheduled Wes his first official dentist appointment and didn't want to reschedule it because we had already waited 2 1/2 months for that appointment. We had to race home from camping and had 15mins to shower everyone and get out the door in time to make it to the appointment. I didn't think it was going to be possible but some how we did it. It was a record for our family. We were able to take him to the pedo department at Orrin's school which was fun because Wes always wants to go in Daddy's school not just to pick him up or drop him off. He loved every minute of it- taking x-rays , the cookie dough toothpaste (yuck), the cool sunglasses he got to wear, and the big chair he got to ride up and down in. He did great.



Orrin also got to sit in the Dr. chair and check out the TWO CAVITIES that Wesley had and also look at the x rays with the Dr. and "talk shop". They found out that he is missing a permanent tooth (#23) as well as a primary tooth (#n).



Wesley's Dr. was Dr. Emilia Adam. I thought it was fun because he has an aunt named Emily Adams.




He can't wait until his next appointment. I hope he does just as well at his next appointment when they do his filling and sealants.

Oh no not fillings! Don't tell him about the shot! I gave my dentist such a hard time when I got fillings because I was terrified of the shot.
