Lauren had a dentist appointment today and the Doctor found a CAVITY.
I was crushed. Even though Lauren brushes her own teeth, at age seven her health and well being are still my responsibility and I feel I failed her. Lauren, however, had no idea anything was out of the ordinary. The Dr. talked to me privately and suggested I say nothing to her. "This will make the filling of the cavity much less stressful." (Do you agree with the Doc?)
I was sent home with the paperwork for our next appointment in a couple of weeks.
White Filling, Sealants for her healthy 6-year-old molars (standard procedure,) and Nitrous Oxide.
S'cuse me? NITROUS OXIDE?!?!
I've never had the "laughing gas" and I'm crushed my baby is going to get it.
Hopefully, I can keep myself together enough to comfort her during her next appointment
.
I'm getting myself upset again so now on the the Good News...
"Great News!" actually
