Ella's 2nd dentist visit

Definitely night and day from her last visit 6 months ago. I spent most of the morning getting Ella excited to see her dentist and letting her know that she was going to count and brush her teeth. Though most kids start going back to see the dentist without their parent's at 2 1/2 years old, Ella was not quite ready yet. I went back with her and she was a GREAT patient. I could not have been more proud of her. She sat in the big girl and let them clean her teeth, floss them, count them and put a flouride seal on them. She started getting antsy towards the end, but did cry. If you recall, her last visit to the dentist required me pinning her down and her crying the entire time. She is cavity free and the dentist said that she is doing a great job brushing (with our help of course).
