Dentist Visit

Logan had her third dentist visit last week.  This was the first "real" visit she's had, though.  The other two have been "happy visists" to get her used to being in the office.  For those she sat in my lap the whole time, had the dentist look at her teeth but not poke and prod and when they brushed her teeth it was just with a toothbrush.  This visit, she sat in the big girl chair and got the works!

Brody loved playing in the train themed waiting room!  They have a big electric train that circles the ceiling and he literally could have sat and watch it for HOURS.  The kiddos played drive through with the little firetruck in the picture.  Brody ordered apples and Logan is handing them to him.

The hygienist made her feel so comfortable and talked her through the whole process before doing anything.  She gave Logan a princess sticker and happily provided one for Brody when Logan asked for a sticker for her baby brother (melt my mommy heart!).  She commented over and over on how beautiful Logan's teeth and are and how well taken care of they are.  Logan was thrilled that she had no "cavity monsters" in  her teeth!  

I didn't get any pictures of L with Dr. Buddy (what a GREAT name to have as a pediatric dentist, isn't it?!) but he is fantastic.  Talks to her about princesses while checking her teeth, encouraging her to get her teeth up to "princess sparkle" standard.  He's just a fun Dr.  

Logan did SO WELL!  The last time we went she was supposed to have her big girl visit but the big chairs just scared her too much.  They say that a small child usually requires two of those happy visits to be comfortable enough to face the big room.  She climbed right in this time, locked on her special "dentist glasses" (they give them glasses to help with the bright lights) and was sweet and answered all of their questions.  Hopefully it'll go this smooth in six months when they both have appointments!
