Max headed back to the Dentist for his second cleaning this year. This was the first time they x-
rayed his teeth. Of course he was in awe of seeing his x-ray on the screen and getting to see all of his teeth. That is until the
hygienist showed him that there were teeth growing above his current teeth.
Hygienist - "Look Max, here are your Big Boy Teeth above your baby teeth", Max - complete look of horror and shock. ( Later to be obsessed over in
excruciating detail that he
doesn't want his big boy teeth he just wants to keep his little boy teeth.)
Max was distracted by moving into the actual teeth cleaning room so it didn't thwart our task at hand. Next, teeth counting.
Hygienist - "Max I need to count your teeth", Max - mouth clamped shut, head bobbing while his tongue counted his own teeth, "I have twenty". She then said she needed to check and make sure and he obliged. He wasn't too pleased with the actual cleaning process that followed but did take breaks to make sure the Dinosaur Pete's teeth were good and clean as well. The Dentist then came in and took a look while talking with Max about the hot air
balloons and clouds on the light covers in the ceiling. He then took Max on a tour of the office and showed him where he would be next time. Of course, Max found the stuffed animal with teeth in the room and needed to know his name. So next time Max will brushing
MoJo the Monkey's teeth. Dental Update: No cavities, everything looks great.
