Oral Surgery

Unlike Atreyu and Cambria, Cosette seems to have gotten bad tooth genes. Last year at her checkup they told me that she had cavities in all eight of her back molars. I was shocked! Within two different visits, they were able to get crowns on four of the eight teeth but when we went back for appointment three, she was done and would not cooperate any longer. I then had to find a dentist in our insurance network that could do the oral surgery. Cosette had her appointment last week at Daddy's work and she did amazing! We had to wake up early in the morning and drive to Modesto. She didn't seem nervous at all, and Daddy was able to take her back for the procedure. 
Most kids wake up a bit grouchy after anesthesia, but Cosette was so sweet. She woke up and then went back to sleep for the majority of the time they had to monitor her and when they did finally wake her up, she happily ate her popsicle. I'm so glad that we finally have those cavities taken care of. Now, to even better oral hygiene and fingers crossed that she doesn't get any more for a long time.
