Cinco De Mayo

Maddie spent her Cinco De Mayo in the dentist chair. We thought she was getting 3 teeth pulled, but they only pulled 1 and crowned the other. She will go back in early June to have 2 on the bottom pulled and then it's on to the orthodontist for her spacer. She was talking today about how she wouldn't be able to eat ice cream with her braces. I explained to her that yes she would. She then said she wouldn't be able to eat Laffy Taffy and I told her that was correct so she better enjoy it while she could ;).
Now I'm getting ready to make Chinese for dinner tonight. That's what she wanted.

3 less teeth

Well Maddie had 3 teeth pulled in the upper right today. They pulled one that was abscessed, one that had a cavity but due to over crowding they went ahead and pulled it and the 3rd one was one of the ones the orthodontist wants pulled. They still want 4 more teeth pulled, a crown put on one and if that can't be saved then they will pull it, a couple of fillings and I think that's it. He wants us to talk to the orthodontist before we pull anything else to find out what he wants to do about spacers or go ahead and start treatment. Again we are going to make an orthodontist very happy :). I tried to get a picture, but this was the best I could get. You can kind of see where the teeth are missing in the back.
