Akesha's First Dental Appointment

Oh boy what a busy day! We got up super early this morning for Akesha's first dental appointment. After the dental appointment, I did a few errands and rake the leaves in our side yard. When we were at the dentist office Akesha was doing pretty good.

These are two different sizes of disposable fluoride trays to apply a fluoride treatment. The fluoride trays are inserted into Akesha's mouth. The fluoride should remain in the mouth for at least 60 seconds. A saliva ejector helps to suck up the excess fluoride foam.


A common question new parents have is "When should my child first see a dentist?" Not as early as they should, according to one study. A child's first visit to the dentist typically happens at about age 3 -- two years later than is recommended, reports the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. Experts say that getting an early start on dental care can be the most effective way to make sure a child's teeth have a healthy start.

It's good that you started early on Akesha's dental care. That will go a long way to maintaining good healthy teeth for her. BTW, I already voted for you on the World Blogging Entertainment Blog of Fame. I hope you make it dahil frustrated kami nung umatras si Akesha sa Smile Contest. Sana ituloy mo ito hanggang sa manalo ka. Maaasahan mo ang aming suporta. Merry Christmas to you all. Thanks for the post. God bless you all always.

Is there anything that Akesha does that she doesn't look cute at? She looks so well-behaved, but so adorable, too. Love the video.

Merry Christmas to the Dias family!:)
