Jameson had a trip to the dentist today. We go to Children's Dental Specialist. I cannot say enough about them! Jameson has been going since he was 18 months old and they have been great with him! I was a little concerned because it started off with a tantrum. Even though I had prepped him all morning about the impending trip, he had a tantrum of epic proportions when it was time to turn his movie off. But, he eventually settled down and off we went. Jameson had fun with the toys in the waiting room. He found a truck that he liked so much that he wanted to bring it back with him. But, I convinced him to leave it in the waiting room pretty easily and he happily trotted to the back room.
We entered the back room which is basically just an open exam room with about 4 chairs. There was a little guy on one of the chairs screaming as the dentist cleaned his teeth and his Mom held his legs. Jameson just kind of looked over at him and hopped up on the exam chair. He picked out his new toothbrush, put on the headphones, laid down and enjoyed the episode of Dinosaur Train. I sat up a little straighter when another Mom walked in the room with her two young kids and asked her kids if they were going to be good like "this little boy." :-)
Jameson had X-rays of his teeth for the first time. He did really well until the last one and then he started crying. Poor guy jumped down from the chair and wanted to go back out to the waiting room to play with the truck! But, I talked him into getting back in the exam chair to watch some more Dinosaur train. The dentist said his teeth look great! Jameson did such a great job that he got to pick a prize! It was really funny because this time was the first time he had definite opinions about which one he wanted! He picked a little toy car.
