The real Dentist

Happy gas and the diagram of what they have to do to her


She looks so small on the chair
She got to watch finding Nemo during the procedure


She had to keep this in her mouth due to the numbness so she won't chew her cheek.

Asia was only 3 1/2 pounds at birth. Teeth are like trees, you can tell what happens in utero by the teeth. Asia's birth mom must have suffered from starvation during her 2 trimester. The 2nd visit to Dr. Lisa, there was a resident there and Dr Lisa got out a text book and was showing us what happened in Utero to the formation of the teeth. Anyhow, yesterday the brave Asia had 5 fillings, 1 root canal and a crown(which we call a princess tooth) These were all back teeth. Her 2nd round will be in August which the front ones will be addressed (5 more fillings). Dr Lisa said she was the bravest little patient she has ever seen. Basically, Asia's teeth have partially developed tooth enamel. Her adult teeth should be fine.
