Everybody loves the Dentist!

So what better to do over spring break than a visit to the Dentist? I decided to take everyone at once, I knew it would be a long afternoon but thought it better than 2 or 3 trips. So we loaded up and off we went with the promise of ice cream for anyone that walked out with no cavities. (knowing we had missed our last 6 month checkup I assumed that wouldn't happen!)

Colby was first and after a few tears, and threats and promises he got his teeth checked and....

NO CAVITIES!



Next Tucker climbed right up and cooperated completely.......
NO CAVITIES!
*The tech even gave him 2 tokens because "he was the best 4 year old I've ever done"

So far so good.......

Devon and Brennon go next and low and behold.......

NO CAVITIES!

That just leaves Briggs..... Yeah right? you didn't really think we wouldn't have any did you?

Briggs had 3! well that's not so bad right?

could have been worse right?

*That's when the dentist said Mrs. Kimber could I speak to you a moment?

Lets start with Devon, his wisdom teeth are coming in and will need to be taken out this summer so I am going to set up his appt. with the oral surgeon.

Brennon has a permanent eye tooth that is fully formed but has not dropped down he need to see and orthodontist A.S.A.P he will HAVE to get braces. This is very critical he needs to get in right away!

And let's not forget Briggs, his entire jaw is out of alignment, he too will need to see an orthodontist soon while he is still young and can regrow bone (as they will probably need to break his jaw to fix it!)

Why oh why couldn't they just have had a bunch of cavities?

Ohhh, you had to know it wasn't going to be good when they called you Mrs. Kimber!! They wanted you to feel REALLY grown up for all that bad news....

Yes the dentist is way cheaper than the orthodontist. Forget college fund, how about braces fund?

Wow, BIG bummer. I'm sure when you have your daughter, her teeth will be perfect! ;)
