A Visit to the Dentist

Carter had his first experience at the dentist yesterday. He was such a big, brave boy! He did great :) Daddy had, of course, prepared him the night before by practicing saying "ahhhhh" and then sticking his hands in his mouth and tickling his teeth. Carter thought this was hilarious! The real dentist wasn't quite so funny though. He was so serious the whole time, but he did everything they asked him to perfectly. Here are some of the memories from his first dentist visit...

The train table in the lobby was a hit.

This is Ms. Angela, she's the dentist's helper. She is a "sugar bug catcher!" Check out the TV's on the ceilings! Cartoons while you get your teeth cleaned - not a bad deal :)

Miles came along for the ride too! He was pretty impressed...

Looking at the Pirate toothbrush he will get if he listens and obeys.

He got to feel the toothbrush tickle his finger before she put it in his mouth. He did think that was funny.

Ms. Angela cleaned Carter's teeth with strawberry toothpaste.

Then she "lassoed all the sugar-bugs" in his mouth (flossed).

Dr. Moffet is the dentist. He counted his teeth and then "painted pictures" of Mickey Mouse and his friends on Carter's teeth (it was actually a clear flouride treatment:)

At the end of the visit Carter got a treat bag and balloon!

Then we went to Chick-fil-A for a celebration lunch because we got an A++ from the dentist! 
NO CAVITIES :)

We go to Madison Pediatric Dentistry and I would highly recommend it to anyone in the area!!!

Super impressed with Carter! I must admit I am a little nervous about taking Owen and haven't yet. Seeing this helps me though. The dentist we need to you use is not a pediatric dentist so I think that adds a little to my concern. Hoping Owen will do better than I expect! Will update when it happens, ha!
