Paige's Smile

Please excuse the post it's I put them their to cover private information.

Paige had her first Orthodontist appointment yesterday. I don't know who was more nervous her or me? But not to worry her mouth is perfectly fine for her age. So that gap between her front teeth is not a problem because she will need it as her baby teeth fall out and her permanent teeth take their place. The only minor concern was that little baby tooth that is loose and is sitting behind a permanent one. I told him not to worry because if Paige does not wiggle it out by April 19th then her dentist will get it out at her next appointment. I know it is super loose but being behind that tooth it does not get much action. I talked to the dentist last month when Megan was getting her teeth cleaned and he said he could take care of it. Paige will keep going back to the orthodontist every 6 months for check ups to make sure her teeth are coming in fine and the cool thing is it does not cost us anything unless/until she needs to have something done (then it's the big bucks). But for now we can be happy and enjoy her smile...spaces and all.

P.S. On the way out of the office Paige said "that was fun, easier than the dentist".
