Open up and say Ahhhh!

Or WAHHHHH in our case at monthly acclimation dental visits for Sam. We go to Pediatric Dental Center of Mansfield and LOVE them! The problem is when you have a child who HATES going to doctor apps and cannot sit still for long! He gags when brushing his teeth and we worry that he may have cavities from years of acids reflux + all the vomiting and formula he still drinks! Well this visit went better but we still have a long way to go. He did well for the hygienist and after mommy pretended to demonstrate everything first; brush teeth, count teeth and look at teeth with their 'mirror tool'. He finally let the hygienist do the same. Dr. Bob came in and had Sam look in his mouth too. Lol! See pics below. Sam wasn't happy to do the same requests again for Dr. Bob and let out some BIG screams! Sigh! he said he has NO major decay on his teeth, just some staining. (One day he'll get a good cleaning). We were finally done and Sam got a new train which I had promised him (was leftover from Hannukah as he got too many). We'll be back on 2/7.
