Peder went to the dentist again today. This time it was to put sealants on his six year molars. He goes to a pediatric dentist and it sure makes a difference when they do procedures. One of the assistants spent several minutes showinPeder what they were going to do on his teeth before even starting. She used his thumb as a pretend tooth and used terms like: shampoo the tooth, painting the tooth, vacuum cleaner, special flashlight. They have their own terminology for kids. Peder did not like the cotton in his mouth and the "shampoo" tasted bad. He only cried a few times. I was glad when it was over! It takes a specil kind of person to work at a pediatric dentist! I couldn't do it!
