$150 tooth

Zack mentioned to me he felt a tooth growing in and when I took a look in his mouth his bottom front tooth had completely grown in without him losing the baby tooth in front of it. So after two weeks of trying to pull the darn thing out, we resorted to taking him to the dentist for the dreaded tooth extraction.




A little nitrous gas and some lidocaine later (and a quick $150), we had a tooth! He was a little woozy afterward, but said he wants to the dentist to pull all of his teeth because it didn't hurt at all. Nice try buddy, we're saving our money for braces now because you've got some pretty crooked teeth! Needless to say, the toothfairy wasn't too generous with Zack that night, but he was all smiles anyway!

I LOVE nitrous... it's the only good thing about going to the dentist.
Good job Zack - way to be brave!
