Not too long ago I posted that Caden had not lost a tooth yet. Caden discovered last week that he had a loose tooth. It was barely loose, but he was excited to have a wiggly tooth. A few days later we noticed a grown up tooth coming in--behind a tooth that wasn't wiggly at all! We made a quick call to the dentitst and were advised to come in and get things checked out. Caden's grown up teeth are so much bigger than the baby teeth that the dentist was concerned about space. And since the grown up teeth were already coming in, Dr. B. said it would be a good idea to pull a few teeth. Four to be exact. The front four on the bottom.
Caden has a little bit of anxiety. So, we decided sedation was the best course of action. They gave him some "sleepy juice"... which contained Versed. A drug of wonders :) They gave Cade the medicine and then sent us to the "Quiet" room filled with stuffed animals to relax while the meds kicked in. Caden loved it in there. They came 10 minutes later--took Caden back and 15 minutes later caden came out in a wheel chair--a little loopy and missing four teeth!
Caden was pretty out of it for a while. He could hardly walk--and kept yelling at me to tell him what was wrong with his eyes because he was seeing double. A little funny, but....
Caden was excited for the first visit from the Tooth Fairy. We managed to get a picture of the Tooth Fairy visiting Caden's room!
If you look closely, you can see the fairy dust on the dollar bills.
Caden will be disappointed to realize that he won't be eating any corn on the cob any time soon, but is pretty impressed with his gaping smile!
