no cavities!

(Not that we thought he had any to begin with.)
Henry just had a very successful and positive first visit to the dentist. We thought it would be a good idea to take him in now, when he didn't need any dental work. I took some shots with my iPhone so they are a little fuzzy.
He sat in the chair, sucked water out of a cup with the suction tool, felt the piece that cleans teeth tickle his fingers, and he let the dentist count his teeth, all 16 of them. His favorite part of the visit was having water squirted into his mouth.






After the appointment, we came home and had lunch. While I was lifting Henry out of his high chair he said "brush" so we got out his new toothbrush. The dentist gave us a sand timer to watch to make sure he brushes long enough. Once it ran out, we were done.
