Today was a tough night for me. Not because I lost a tooth or that I have that feeling of my little girl getting bigger. Nope, it's because I can't stand "tooth" issues.
I'm fine, and almost enjoy going to the dentist just like my very own cosmetic dentist. Just don't like the pulling of teeth, you know that's probably why they came up with the phrase "like pulling teeth". It implies an unpleasantness right?
Not sure what it is, but the idea of yanking a piece of bone out of your flesh while ripping strands of flesh and nerve, just isn't my favorite thing. It doesn't matter if it's my tooth, your tooth and especially my kid's tooth. Those who had to have their teeth pulled out by an emergency dentist may still have a full smile by getting dental implants. You may also consider having dentures or invisalign treatments to achieve that perfect smile. You may find out more about dentures here.
My girl didn't want to get her tooth pulled tonight, but her replacement tooth is already in and getting kind of pushed out of the way so it needed to come out. I was happy to hang-out in the living room and let my wife take care of it. Luckily she's good at that stuff.
Not so quick. Abby wanted daddy in the room to help her get through it. I was able to distract myself by looking away and focusing on the television. I know I'm a weenie. I'll agree with that 100% when it comes to these tooth issues.
Sadly, she's got two more that are loose now.
