Bryson had his first teeth cleaning today, and did an excellent job. When we were waiting in the waiting area he stopped playing with the toys and said "see doctor now, Mom" I told him that he had to wait till they called his name. He was very anxious to get back to see the doctor. He sat down in the chair without any problems.
He let the hygienist count his teeth, brush them and floss them. He didn't want the "spit sucker" the first time, but after she polished his teeth he let me do the "spit sucker" on him.
He did an excellent job sitting still and not crying. After he finished he got a balloon, toothbrush, tooth paste & floss. He was so excited, and is still carrying his balloon around everywhere. I was able to convince him to put his toothbrush and stuff in the bathroom. We both had successful visits with no cavities. Bryson even did pretty well sitting and watching while I got my teeth cleaned, he even held my hand for a little bit. He was very curious as they cleaned my teeth, maybe he will take after his Grandpa and Daddy.

That is so awesome!!! We have tried twice with Kaitlyn and she won't even get in the chair. Isaac has gone once and he let the doctor count his teeth but would not let them clean them, hopefully next time!
Bryson did GREAT!! You don't see that very often in the dental office. He has been taught well by his mommy and daddy. So much talk of teeth and no worries!! The prizes always are fun too. Glad there was no cavities for him.
Taylor went today too--she loves it! Kennedy is next. She took great notes. This new dentist had no goody bags, free toothbrushes or anything...I hate switching insurances :( Taylor was disappointed.
