Trip to the Dentist..

About 2 weeks ago Keltcee started complaining of a toothache. So I called the dentist which was on a Saturday and he called me in some antibiotics and made an appointment for Monday. I took her in and they said it was just a tooth coming in and that it would just run the course. So we went home and she never got better. She kept complaining of her chin hurting so this morning when she woke up her chin was swollen and her right jaw. I called the dentist and they got her in today and she is going to have to have root canal done on her front tooth. You see about 2 years ago my "tomboy" daughter was playing football at school and got her tooth chipped by a young man attempting to catch the ball. Well the tooth that got chipped is fine it is the one next to it that is dying hence the swollen jaw. I feel so bad for her.. When your kids complain of a toothache make sure the dentisit gets the right tooth...
The dentist is so nice. He is not charging me for the appointment or the 3 xrays they took today. What a relief.. since he didn't catch it in the first place...

So glad Keltcee is getting the help she needs, finally!! Also glad that you have a really good dentist to not charge you. It sure adds up at the dentist office!
I love your family picture, your kids are growing up so fast!

I hope she gets feeling better soon. I just had to go through that as well. I don't know why root canals get such a bad rap....my tooth felt much better afterward. Glad to see you post again!
