The kids had cleanings at the dentist yesterday. I of course got in trouble for not taking care of Paizley's front teeth issue that we talked about last time. When she was a baby she had to be on tons of strong antibiotics for the ear infections we could never get cleared up and it started rotting her front two teeth. The dentist wants to cap them, but she is so small he wants to knock her out to do it. I don't have a problem with them doing it, it's just we have to pay for the anesthesia up front and then get reimbursed from the insurance ourselves and it's going to be like $400. I just haven't had that lying around in my back pocket lately. Now he's threatening me with a root canal if we don't get it done soon. Fine, whatever I'll figure it out and get it done. It would probably be a good idea to do it when we actually have insurance to reimburse us.
Xander only has the two small cavities that didn't get fixed in the fiasco last time (they sedated him, he freaked out and tried to punch the dentist. I had to hold him down while they pulled two teeth...good times) and one new one. We are opting for the laughing gas this time so hopefully it will go much better.
