After hearing stories of Nadine's friends having worms in their teeth, Mummy thought Nadine better go get her teeth checked, before it's too late. And Nadine has 1 front incisor that looks a shade darker than the rest of her teeth. So Mummy was actually quite nervous for Nadine.
For 2 days, Mummy kept prepping Nadine for the visit. Nadine did not like the idea at all. Kept saying she did not want to go. That it's painful. How did she know it's painful? From "Finding Nemo" - Daddy and Bibi think.
Anyway, she seemed more ok with the idea today.
Lunch before the dental appointment, with her bear menu for kids.
We brought her to Straits Dental Group, recommended by Aunty Lydia. The clinic had a tv/play corner for kids that Nadine really liked. From the look of it, they probably have a good number of children clients! They even had a tv screen on top of the dentist chair, and were playing Madagascar 2 during our turn! Very well-equipped to distract children!
We saw Dr Jeremy Cheah, a young handsome dentist, who made a lot of effort to try and connect with Nadine. He suggested that he checked Mummy's teeth first, so that Nadine could see what really took place on that dentist chair. And he cleverly tricked Nadine into opening her mouth for him to check halfway through treating Mummy. That was really good, because Nadine wouldn't go onto the chair after Mummy. Thankfully, her teeth were in good shape!
Relief!
