Fillings

Madeline survived her first fillings today. I was a little nervous about the whole ordeal but it was nothing to be worried about. She had a little laughing gas while she watched tv. No novacaine was necessary since the cavities were pretty small. She also had two preventative sealants put on her molars. She will get four more sealants at her next checkup. About one minute after the laughing gas started she started giggling and giggling. It was so funny Ryan and I were cracking up. Of course we had to celebrate the whole process by getting ice cream. Shhh... don't tell the dentist! We're hoping these were her only two cavities she will ever have. She brushed and flossed three times today alone! She's banned from anything sticky (like fruit snacks and gum) and hard for two weeks while the sealants harden.
