Look Mom! No Cavities!

Little Winnie has never had her teeth looked at by a dentist. This has caused me (Rabbit-Mommy) a great deal of anxiety. You see, my mom worked for a dentist for years, and I've worked for dentists for years, and I have seen what can happen to a child's teeth when they do not see a dentist regularly. Winnie is now almost 4 years old, and try as I might, every time I took her in with me to see the dentist that Roo and I see, Winnie would steadfastly (in a rather Eeyore-ish way) refuse loudly to get in the chair, or even "ride on mommy's lap". No way! So, after the last time, my wonderful dentist suggested this pediatric dentist in town that is amazing. As it turns out, I have heard of this place because they have advertised where I work. It's called Dentistry For Kids in Wilsonville.

So, after waiting a few weeks, I finally called and made an appointment for Winnie to see Dr. James. When we came in for our appointment we were greeted by a very nice Office manager and a room resembling Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium. I kid you not. This place is the dental version of Disneyland. Check it out here: www.dentistryforkidsonline.com

Of course Winnie LOVED it. Here she is:


Tigger had a blast too and played while, every once in a while going into Winnie's room to check on her:

So there it is! My Winnie is growing up and getting braver by the minute. Next thing you know she'll be riding a scooter all by herself. Oh wait, she did that a couple of weeks ago! That's a whole different post:-)

Your friendly tutorial service here.

Highlight with your cursor the web address of the dentist office (in edit post mode) then hit that little chain link symbol just to the right of the color palette. A new window will pop-up. Put the address in there too. Now when your readers (i.e. ME) click on it, it will take me to the dentist office site so I can check it out.

I am too lazy to actually type that address in and want you to do the work for me! haa hhaaaa

Good job Winnie! Clean teeth are the best!!!

Awesome, thanks for the heads up on the links. I was wondering how to do that, and frankly, didn't have the time right then to figure it out! You're the best!

Oh MY! That dentist office is like over the top! Where was that place when I was a kid LOL.

Thanks for linking--that place is amazing :)

Yeah no kidding! Oh, and I forgot to mention that it doesn't have that dental office smell that all offices have. Fabulous!
