day 53/365 day at the dentist

Cassidy had a dental appointment this morning. And in her relatively short life (relative to mine, for example), no dental appointment is complete without the ever-trustworthy sidekick, Bear-Bear. He's attended every single dental appointment. He even had his x-rays taken! (I was probably charged something for that...) And surprise, Bear-Bear has no cavities.

Today, we learned that Cassidy has four wiggly teeth - her bottom two front teeth and her top two front teeth. Interestingly, the top two are NOT wiggly because of the permanent teeth pushing down on them, yet. Rather, they are wiggly because of some kind of "trauma" to the teeth. Huh? Really? I had no idea she had had trauma to her teeth at some point in her relatively short life. The dentist said it was unrelated her to recent chin fall issue; it was something that had to have happened a while ago. Really?

In other news from the dentist, mom is doing a really good job with brushing Cassidy's teeth!
