All The Threats About Dental Needles And FOR WHAT?!!!
So, for EONS I have been threatening my kids with needles. Specifically, dental needles. Muwahahaaaaa!!! (Oh whatever. I know I am a bad mom. That has been established already, K?)
ANYWAY…. I have been fighting with Tiny Ninja and Young Jedi about brushing their teeth for AGES. They barely brush. In fact, I am not certain that they do anything other than swish toothpaste around their mouths and spit.
Lots of SPIT. They are good at that part. Cause everybody knows that SPITTING is by far the best part of brushing one’s teeth. I mean, duh!
So, it has actually been quite some time since they visited the dentist. I was certain they were in for some serious drilling. In fact, I kind of hoped they would get some drilling action. I mean, they NEVER listen to me about the brushing thing! It would SERVE. THEM. RIGHT.
In my continued quest to constantly multi-task, I triple booked our appointments yesterday so that I could wipe out the two boys and myself all at once. (Go mom!) In any event, we all got complete work-ups at the same time.
So it was with much anticipation that I awaited the results of Ninja and Jedi’s x-rays. And you know what they had? NOTHING. No mouth action AT ALL. How is this possible!!? Do they have MAGIC SPIT?
The suckiest part of the whole ordeal was that I ENDED UP WITH A MOUTH FULL OF NEEDLES FOR CRAP’S SAKE. What is up with that? I had a permanent crown put on for the bargain price of $6 million dollars. JEEZ!
<—–I swear that I saw the little buggers’ smirk. Remind me to ground them later.
Oh, and my favorite quote of the excursion? “Mom, I would rather go to the dentist any day then spend time at school!” Perfect ending to a perfect day.
Just gotta love little boys.

OMG, I am still laughing over this one. Your boys are so funny!
I have dentist phobia (it started with a really bad visit to the dentist when I was a child, I ended up throwing up on my dentist during a cavity filling). Sad thing is, I always brushed and took care of my teeth, I just have bad genetics.
To this day, I’d prefer to go to the OBGYN over the dentist (no joke, it’s that bad). I don’t sleep for days before my appointment and almost have a nervous breakdown in the waiting room and during the exam.
I pray my son takes after my husband with his teeth!

Oh No, how did that happen? you must feed them really healthy food
Sorry you didn’t have such a good visit-And you gotta love their attitude, they are some cool dudes!
Oh Jessica! WHAT!!?? OBGYN? Wow, girl. I’d rather have 1,000 needles than that. hehehe
Boys! My brother was terrible a brushing his teeth, I wasn’t. Guess who ended up with fillings etc?

Oh my crap.
I do the dentist needle threat ALL THE TIME. However, some weird little boy from their school told them, “Um, yeah, but the dentist gives you this gas that makes you laugh and it’s a blast!”
So now they’re begging me to take them!
And they still don’t brush. UGH!
