Visiting the dentist

Our family dentist is fantastic. She really focuses on making having a check up to be a fun experience for the children. All 3 children go in together and she encourages them to have a ride in the fun chair, brush the teeth of a toy crocodile, and learn a bit about dental hygiene.

She has totally won over my usually shy eldest child, and convinced both boys to climb up into her chair. The baby of course wanted to brush his own teeth with a giant toy toothbrush but that's all good. And the dentist is so thoughtful that she took a picture of my kids being cute and emailed it to me! I'm pretty sure visiting the dentist wasn't half so much fun when I was a child!!
