Mom, DDS

Earlier this summer, Nathan celebrated a monumental occasion. After 10 months of ortho, the braces came off. I know, I know... All of you suckers out there who suffered through 4 years of wires and bands can whine all you want, but your dentist just didn't have the mad skillz that Nathan's did. (Har har har.) Wayne was on hand to capture the torture... I mean treatment, as we took all kinds of impressions for study models and retainers, etc.

It all started out fine and dandy.
...Gave him a little alginate facial as a perk.

Hayden wanted in on the action, too.
Big baby.
I look like I'm having WAAAAAY too much fun at his expense, don't I?
Capture that vestibule!
You can run...
But ya can't hide.
He certainly liked the end result.

Now what else can I do to them for practice? Anybody up for some wisdom tooth extractions?

Hey guess what??? I was born without wisdom teeth so LUCKY me!!! Also be proud of me.... my son has his 1st dentist appointment on Sept. 8th He will be 2 Sept 13th..... I bet you could write a whole blog on children's dentistry and the do's and don'ts. It kinda makes me crazy and it seems like nobody can agree on anything expect they want my money... DENTIST.... Also who goes into Pediatric Dentistry... they probably have a death wish..... You may be surprised to learn that I have written a few blogs about this myself.....

Those are great pics and what a legitimate way to torture your kids when they are bad!!

Yes, you do look like you're enjoying that quite a lot. Understandably.

Nathan's teeth look gorgeous!

So when are you going to whiten my atrociously normal-colored teeth... so I can be like everyone else?

Jason sill has quite a way to go. You know, Shana, you really shouldn't help your boys be more attractive at this stage. Keep the girls away as long as possible. Tell them he still has cooties. :)
