Orthodontist

In July Brennan's adult tooth next to the front Chiclets came in before the baby tooth fell out. So, we wiggled like mad to get that baby out of there. a month later Brennan asked if the adult would grow down to be in the right place. We were at church and happened to see Dr. Latham. Go ask him I said to Brennan and he did. next thing we know is Brennan has had ex rays and off we are going to see Dr Latham's replacement Dr Marcy.

On Monday David ,Brennan and I are at the office and they have taken pictures and done and examination. They would like to do molds. not today said Brennan. Try said mom. Okay said Brennan.

He manages to try the bottom mold without the goop in it. then he does the wax bite. then he starts to cry when they try the top mold without the goop. I need to go to the washroom he said. That's the last we'll see of him I think. I can hear him sobbing in the bathroom I check the door LOCKED. I convince him to let me in. He is wedged between the wall and the toilet clinging on to the plant there. When i demand he come out he squats down and hides in this spot.

We have a cuddle and he comes out to the lobby. He gets a toy for trying and we make another appointment.

Wednesday. Success. only cried with the top mold. but did not "choke" he earned 15 hockey cards that the receptionist went out and bought just for him. Fingers crossed there will be enough room for his teeth to come in, but if not he will have a positive experience with these caring people.
