Teeth what a problem


Cenneidigh had seven teeth scheduled to be pulled yesterday. One fell out last week so we were excited that at least that was one less then planned. When the dentist started he called and discussed it with the orthodontist again to be sure about the teeth. He ended up taking 8 instead of the original 6. Her teeth are bad, they are everywhere in her mouth and there is no room for the other teeth so they are up in her gums and pushing hard to get out. Now I hope there is room for the other teeth, but the dentist said that maybe another one or two will have to come out. She may be loud, but she actually has a very small mouth. The orthodontist will now put in spacers to be sure to hold the space for the permanent teeth that are still waiting to come in.

Cenny is laying on the couch with gauze in her mouth and she looks miserable. Soft cold food is all she can have the rest of the day. Ice Cream is waiting for when she is ready. Tylenol will be served in two hours.
