Dental Drama

Caity had her first dentist appointment this morning. It went about as well as I'd expected it would - hesitation, followed by crying, followed by screaming. To give her credit, though, she did better than many kids (or so sayeth the dentist), and didn't bite or kick anyone. She cheered right up when offered a selection from the "prize drawer" and was all smiles from there on out. I have to mention that while we were leaving, another unfortunate soul was screaming his lungs out in a back room... and this was AFTER he'd been sedated. They might want to consider investing in some better sound-proofing technology; it's probably not a good idea for kids in the waiting room to hear what's in store for them.
