Dr. Bearson

A couple of months ago, I picked up a Berenstain Bears movie for the kids to watch.  The first show on the DVD is all about the dentist.  Nick and I have also been going to the dentist recently for check-ups and a little bit of work and the kids wanted to go to the dentist very badly.  Even though our dentist's name is Dr. Baugh, the kids are convinced that they went to see Dr. Bearson (just like the Berenstain bear cubs did in the movie). 

Nick took Mabel and Sam this morning and I stayed home with Max.  They played in the treehouse until they called them back.


Mabel was very good while they cleaned her teeth.  She got to watch Dora on a TV in the ceiling.



Just like most things, Sam was terrified.  They didn't even charge our insurance for a cleaning since Sam didn't give them much of a chance to get close.


Mabel did very well even while the dentist checked her teeth.  She has 20 teeth and no cavities.  Sam also got in the zero cavity club, but Dr. Baugh didn't get much of a chance to check his teeth.




The kids came home super excited and had all kinds of goodies.  Mabel got a Zero Cavity Certificate, a pink balloon, a Dora toothbrush, Spongebob toothpaste, floss, and a small flag toy.  Sam got a Zero Cavity Certificate, a blue balloon, a duck toothbrush, Spongebob toothpaste, floss picks, and a red bouncy ball.  I guess I should take a few lessons from the kids because I sure don't like going to the dentist nearly as much as they did.

I haven't been to the dentist in years. I really don't enjoy the experience. Its not too bad if a cute little hygenist cleans my teeth, but i hate the rest.

Tell Sam that I feel the same way about the Dentist

Congratulations on your accomplishment Mabel and Sam! Mabel, your teeth look so pretty and white. What a big girl you are now! Sam, next time you'll be able to not be afraid, huh?

Unlike scaredy cat Grandpa, Grams goes to the dentist all the time and I'm not scared. I go to the Dr. too and Grandpa told me 10 years ago he'd go if I did. Well, I'm still waiting to see that day. Even Heidi goes to the Dr.

Love, Grandma Salina

Good job mom, I don't want to take Gavin to the dentist I think he would scream the whole time. Maybe I need to get the movie.
