Hayden and the Dentist

Hayden got to visit the dentist for the first time this week. A few weeks ago he fell and hit his lip and split it open and also damaged his tooth. It took us awhile to realize that his tooth was not pearly white but a bit more brownish white. So after realizing that it wasnt chocolate on his tooth I called and made an appointment to get it looked at to make sure that there wasnt damage that needed to be worried about. I wasnt sure what behavior to expect so I had Grama watch the girls. Hayden did wonderful. He didnt let the assistant lady look in his mouth, but once the dentist (who was a guy) asked he opened right up. It did take two little play monsters and a lot of coxing to get him to let them to take a picture of his teeth. Any time the camera came close he would cover his face. We found out that there was no damage to his tooth just that when he hit his mouth blood drained into it turning it colors. It may go back to being white or it may just stay brownish white only time would tell.
If you look at the tooth on the right you will notice a slight change in color from the others

Oh our little dead tooth! :) Glad to hear that it was just blood draining. Wish I could have been there to see him at the dentist. :) Sounds entertaining!

Poor little guy. I bet he just soaked up the attention at the dentist. ;) Glad everything turned out okay.
