Cheerful Checkup!

Another sign of our little girl growing up as today Isabelle took her first trip to see the dentist! As expected, she was a model patient, obeying all the instructions and generally just happy to be the centre of attention. Clearly no one has told her that many people don't really enjoy a trip to the dentist. She had her teeth counted and polished by the hygienist, who did a great job of explaining to her all the instruments and apparatus she would be using. Then she had a strawberry-flavoured fluoride treatment before visiting with the dentist. She was praised for being a good brusher and was happily sent on her merry way with a sticker and a new toothbrush. She has been sharing her experience with her friends and anyone else who will listen, in fact she is already asking to go back again. She says "it's just like the doctor, but they have special stuff." Great job, little girl, let's hope all your trips to the dentist go just like this one!
