I had a check-up, then a clean & polish with the hygienist. I wanted to take Kirsty along as I want to bring her each time I go for a check-up so she gets used to the people and the type of environment (chair, noises, lights, etc). Took the bumbo for her to sit in.

The dentist was fab with her  He registered her as a patient and even let her sit in the chair, he put on his gloves and gave her a check-up as well!!!!  He asked me first if I wanted him to do a check, I was a bit “umm, she only has 2 and a bit teeth”, he said it’s fine, it’s good for them to get used to the routine. She wasn’t keen on him looking in her mouth, but she didn’t cry (as she often does with strangers).

He had me hold her and stand up, and he got a decent feel of her gums and confirmed the side tooth is deffo through on top. He said her teeth are beautiful as is she  Of course, I knew that already!! Then we went in to the hygienist, Kirsty wasn’t so sure of her though and got a wee bit upset, I think the mask & goggles scared her a little. So I ended up having Kirsty sit on my belly whilst she cleaned my teeth. Kirsty enjoyed watching and didn’t wriggle!!

I’ve no work to get done  And am back in May for my next check-up. They didn’t book one for Kirsty but I’ll prob just sneak her along with me.
