Piper's First Dentist Visit

Well, actually it was her first preventative visit. I rushed her in a little over a year ago after she fell off an ottoman and chipped one tooth and another was loose.
The visit didn't start well. She sat on my lap, but kept saying "I want to go home". We took a little break and then she decided she wanted to sit in Isaac's lap. Here she is showing the hygienist how she brushes her teeth.




Dr. Whitney is showing Piper the special mirror.




An it went downhill from there. She did NOT want to open her mouth. I ended up trying to tip her back, so her head would rest in the dentist's lap. After several blood-curdling screams, we stopped. She got a toothbrush, but I wouldn't let her pick out a prize. Screaming continued. Then I took her outside, where the screaming continued, but this time it was because I wouldn't pick her up.


The fit ended forty minutes later. Oh, my strong-willed daughter, I will always win. I'm hoping the next visit isn't as eventful!
