The Dentist

Now that Kae is a big boy he gets to go the dentist. His first visit went really well. He wasn't scared but mostly very curious about what was happening. The best part was that he kept touching everything in his mouth with his tongue, especially the dental hygienist's hands. She said that was normal for kids his age.


They tried to do x-rays but Kae didn't like it at all so they didn't happen. (To be honest, I don't like the x-rays much either. That thing they stick in your mouth for you to bite on is really uncomfortable.)

He did get a cleaning. They used their bubblegum toothpaste which Kae thought tasted, "yucky". They even flossed his teeth which Kae took really well but he thought it was weird, probably because we've never flossed his teeth before.


Kae was so brave that he got a sticker. He picked out a Mr. Potato Head sticker and then insisted we take a picture of the sticker.
