Amelia went to the dentist today for the first time. She was very excited about sitting in the dentist chair until the hygienist sat down next to her! Actually she did real well. She didn't actually get her teeth cleaned with the tools but she let the hygienist brush and floss her teeth.
When the dentist came in thought it was a whole other story. She was having no part of some guy looking at her teeth. We had Jack go first thinking that would help but it didn't. We ended up doing the dental exam on my and the dentist's knees. I think she was only slightly traumatized by it. It helped that she got a toothbrush, tooth paste and a new toy. I believe she will do better next time.
