Dental Problems

It has been a whirlwind with my teeth lately! It has been so stressful for me lately trying to get the house packed and ready to move, trying to sell the house, trying to get the kids in school, schedule Amari's appts, figure out how all our finances are going to work; plan last minute trips, etc. All of this stress has made me crack my tooth from grinding at night.  So in June I had to extract one of my teeth because I cracked it and it got a cavity below the gum line.  Now I have to get a root canal on my other molar and a crown. Not only has this added to the stress as far as all the time it has taken and the money that's been spent, but it worries me about the future health of my teeth.  I officially have to sleep with a night guard every night.  UGH! I am seriously a brave person but when it comes to dental work, I sweat bullets! I can't handle dental pain the slightest bit.  I am grateful for really good dentists that helped ease my fears a little by the good work they did on my tooth.  

This was me going in for my permanent crown; the dental assistant was outstanding.  She allowed the boys to help her with her work! So awesome! We will miss this dentist! 

Weekly update

Beckahm's first dentist appt.  Everything looked great! He had a few brown spots from juice (we were told to cut back to 6oz a day), but the dentist cleaned them so they looked brand new.  The dentist also showed me his four molars which are poking through (one almost all the way through).  He was a bit nervous to see the dentist in the beginning and cried through the first cleaning but once we put the floride on he was fine.  He was excited to get stickers, a new toothbrush, floss, and toothpaste.

So proud of this little guy; he is so smart!! He is so good at finishing most of every sentence in the books we read him at night.  Some times reading the same book over and over can be monotonous but man is repetition worth it!!
