Pediatric Dentist Appt & First Visit From The Tooth Fairy

Wyatt had an appointment with the pediatric dentist this week. The great news is he has all his teeth! His "lucky tooth" that is coming in his cleft is actually a tooth. They got some blurry x-rays even though the poor little guy kept gagging and threw up. He is going to need some dental work down the road for his teeth and jaw but we already knew about all that.

He had something coming through his palate and we were never really sure what it was. (Clefts can cause all kinds of weird things to happen... extra teeth, missing teeth, backwards teeth, etc. You never know what you are going to get!) The guess was a bone spur or small tooth. It didn't show up on the x-ray and the dentist was able to make it move so they decided to pull it out. A little topical and one good pull and that was that. We wondered if the Tooth Fairy would be interested. She was.
