Pearly Whites

Lucia's first trip to the dentist was on December 4, 2009. Technically, we were a little late, as the American Academy of Pediatric Dentristry suggests that children should have their first visit by their first birthday. It didn't go as well as I'd have hoped. She didn't cry at all, so I guess it could have been worse, but she certainly didn't open her mouth very much, so the dentist didn't get that great of a look. Oh well, no cavities were detected and it seems we're still waiting on two molars on the top: 18 teeth in all.

Lucia in the waiting room, feeling a bit nervous.


Feeling a bit MORE nervous in the dentist's chair.


Getting brushed with flouride.


And experiencing the spit sucker.


This is the widest she opened her mouth the whole time.


No tears though, so she got to pick out a toy from the treasure chest after it was all over!


Oh, and Milo still has yet to cut a tooth, so we're right on track with him!!!
