The girls and I have never had a cavity, so Madison is the first to have to get a filling. Our girl’s dentist office is like disneyland, not sure if I shared this before or not, it’s a drive, about an hour into Virginia, but worth it. It’s amazing, I would love to go there, unfortunately, they don’t take adults.
The new technology they have, is astounding! They use laser and water now instead of drilling into the tooth. Then they did the same color enamel to fill in the tooth, the whole process took only about 20 minutes, all while you are in a comfy chair watching a movie that you picked out! The dentists and assistants are so sweet to the kids too, they make it sounds like no big deal that their going to “tickle” your tooth when they’re scraping it!!! The kids have no idea though, and totally love it. Alex heard that Madison got strawberry flavored nitrous oxide, and couldn’t believe they had a new flavor since she had to have it… weird I know, my kids look forward to going!
This office beats the one here in our little town in West Virginia, the dentist wanted to extract four teeth out of Alex’s mouth a few years ago when she was probably 7, WITHOUT any pain medicine of any sort. Nice, gotta love red neck country!
