She was cool as a cucumber throughout her check up. I think she actually enjoyed it. Her teeth were all there and she has no cavities to report. Surprisingly, neither do I. Unlike Lola however, I did not get my picture taken and added to the "No Cavities!!" wall.
Afterward she received a little baggy with a toothbrush, Sponge Bob toothpaste ("The same as Elisabeth!"), children's mouthwash, dental floss, and stickers. I was given a baggy too, but no stickers for me.
In the car on the way back Lola admired every item in her baggy. At some point she asked me: "Mom, how do I put the string back?" I looked in the rear view mirror and there was Lola, completely covered in dental floss. I am going to have to show her the ropes tonight.

The girls all got a kick out of this story. They can just picture Lola in a nest of dental floss. Mike thinks the hygienist looks like Aunt Amy.
Sounds like the first time my boys got dental floss, too! Glad she was a champ in the chair!
Terrific! That's what I would do with the floss too if I could get away with it! Congratulations on the no cavities - for both of you. My dentist wanted to put a sealant on my son's teeth last visit (he's 7). I decided to wait on that but I have to go back next month to repair three fillings - gulp.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww. That is such a cute story! Dental floss is my sons favorite part of the process that is for sure : )
