Toothless Tuesday

 Poor Reed.

He was 7 years old before he had his first baby tooth fall out.  At 13 he still had 5 baby teeth.  

So in two different appointments he had 5 teeth pulled.  He had 3 pulled the week before the freeze shut down.


Look at the roots on that middle tooth.  The dentist said that one would have never come out. 


Then he got the other 2 pulled this week.
The root broke off on one, and they said it will eventually come up to the surface and Reed will be able to pull it out.  
The dental assistant told me "I've been doing this for 16 years and I've never seen roots like this on a kid."


Reed now has all his baby teeth out, and out of 20 teeth he had to have 8 of them pulled along the way!
