He did it!


Well, Nate did it!
He got his first "mini-filling" at the dentist yesterday. He was such a good patient. If you look at the picture, it's on your left (his right)...on the top, second to the back. LOL!
The dentist said that it was so tiny, more of a soft spot that hadn't turned into a full fledged cavity, but was on it's way.
She said that it was more the "anatomy" of the tooth, the reason he even got it in the first place because that tooth had such a deep "crevice"...that it would be nearly impossible to get a toothbrush in there to keep food out. She said it wasn't due to him having poor brushing habits. That made us both feel good.
He didn't even need it numbed! He did awesome! Took about five minutes and he was done!
We went to check out...he got a toy from the treasure box AND the receptionist gave him AND Evan a certificate for a free kids meal at Red Robin! How cool was that!
Nate came home and said, "I LOVE THE DENTIST!" LOL! He said that last time we went for cleanings in the fall too. Most people can't say that. I'm glad he's off to a good start!
