First Visit to the Dentist

Finley was so excited for her first trip to the dentist.  She already loves going to the doctor, so I was not too worried about the visit with the dentist.  We went to my dentist, Dr. Angie Dinh, for her first visit. Dr. Dinh has been my dentist for nearly seven years, I just love her. Finley was all smiles while we waited to be seen.  The dental hygenist let Finley select what flavor of toothpaste she wanted (blue raspberry) and outfitted her with special sparkly glasses to wear while she got her teeth cleaned.  She said that Finley was the best three year old she had ever seen.  Finley listened well to instructions and was so calm the entire time.  Once Dr. Dinh came in for the exam, Finley was super proud of herself and her clean teeth.  Dr. Dinh said her teeth looked great and we could come back in six months for another cleaning.  We went home with a bag full of toothbrushes, stickers, floss and cards.  Finley was thrilled with her first visit to the dentist and I was relieved that it went so unbelievably well...not to mention I was happy we didn't have to spend the extra money on a pediatric dentist.  Now hopefully my trip to the dentist next week goes as well.
