April 9, 2010 - Darren had been worried about one of Rylee's teeth for awhile, and when she visited the dentist office in March, they found a cavity. It was her dad's worst nightmare!!! He was a little worried about fixing it and drilling his own baby girl, but it went great. She was SOOOOO brave!!! How do you drill into this cute girl? Trust me....Her dad had a hard time! She wasn't even nervous. I was so proud of her!
Darren thought he could just zip into the cavity without numbing Ry or anything, but once he got in there, the cavity was bigger than he thought, so he ended up having to give her a shot and it was a pretty big job. I was worried about how Ry would do , but she was so great. She didn't cry at all except when the little tool they use to keep her mouth open slipped a little and pinched her lip. We were so proud of her!
Afterwards, Rylee got a cool prize - One of Darren's gloves blown up like a balloon with her name on it! She was perfectly happy with that! I love that she had to show me her cavity in every picture, too.
Rylee showing me her "gold tooth". Her filling isn't gold, or even silver. It is white. However, Darren has a gold crown and the kids love to look at it. So, she liked telling me she had a gold tooth like Daddy. And Daddy liked watching me freak that he would put gold in her mouth! It looks great! Hopefully, there will be no more cavities for Ry!!! I think we will be cutting down on the fruit snacks around here....
