Kaitlyn has developed some anxieties when it comes to dental work. When we realized she was going to have to have two of her bottom baby teeth pulled well before they were ready, we began discussing options. Our regular dentist did not want to pull them with her limited options for dealing with Kaitlyn’s anxiety. Instead we were sent to an oral surgeon. That dentist gave us all kinds of options and we decided to have Kaitlyn put all the way to sleep. It was definitely the right decision. Kaitlyn and I went early this morning and the teeth were out and we were on our way home about 40 minutes later. Kaitlyn was a little woozy in the car, but by the time we got home she was back to her normal self. I kept her home from school the entire day but she never once complained about her mouth or teeth.
