Dental Assistants?!

Today Britain and Kalixta had their first ever dentist appointment. Ammon went too for his normal check up. They all received cute letters from the dentist, telling them what was going to happen. They were excited to go and ride in the fancy chair that goes up and down.

We get there and it is a fun place so everyone is happy. As the dental hygienist, Eric, started cleaning Ammon’s teeth, Britain had twenty questions so he let her help. She held the chocolate flavored toothpaste as he cleaned Ammon’s teeth. She held the floss and shook the fluoride can and finally she got to press the button that moves the chair. She was so excited he let her help with Kalixta’s teeth too. He even gave her a glove and a mask so she looked like him. It was the greatest thing ever! When it was her turn Ammon got to be the assistant complete with glove and mask. And Kalixta? She is content to read her books and sneak her cheerios!

The kids had a blast at the dentist and that was even before the big goodie bag they got. I love finding treasures like this that make being a Mom easier. Oh, and super good report- NO CAVITIES!!!
