First Dentist Appointment

The girls had their first dentist appointments this morning with Dr. Pierce.  I prepped them a little by saying we were going somewhere fun and they were going to brush their teeth really good.  I also let them watch the Bubble Guppies episode "A tooth on the loose" this morning about the Bubble Guppies going to the dentist.  We scheduled all of their appointments together and Brian came as well.  They loved the office since there was Disney artwork and movies on the TV.   

I have been dreading taking them to the dentist since they don't particularly like the doctor's office and to have someone in their mouth brought it to a new level.  I was expecting them to be terrified and have complete melt downs.  But, these girls surpassed all expectations and did AMAZING!  I'm so proud of them.  They followed the nurse in and volunteered to get in the chair.  They chatted with the nurse (which they never do).  They did X-rays with the nurse, the dentist did an exam, and then the hygienists cleaned their teeth.  They were all able to have their own chairs while they got their teeth cleaned and it was so cute.  They were rewarded with Frozen stickers, picking out their own toothbrushes, and picking a toy out of the treasure chest.  Here are some pictures of my BIG girls.

After they saw the dentist, they all got their own chairs for the hygienists to clean their teeth. 

Way to go, Girls!  We are so proud of you!
