Zach's Follow-Up Dentist Appt
Hey guys, Zach had his follow up dentist appt today, for them to check the enamel and also put another coat of fluoride on his teeth. He freaked out pretty bad when we laid him down for the dentist to check his teeth (which i pretty much expected) but he had a very good report on his teeth! No cavities, and the Dentist was surprised at how well the enamel has held up over the last 3 months and didn't mention anything about getting caps like he did last time. He just mentioned the biggest problem now is the color (which we can live with) and said that when he gets older and starts going to school they can probably whiten them.
Also good news is that his canines that just came in (the top ones) are actually a little yellow at the tips, but then are WHITE at the tops!! WOO-HOO!! So he said that there might be hope that his back molars we are waiting for could come in healthy and white also!! woo-hoo!! He said those teeth form later in gestation, so its possible that is was after Zach had gotten over his really bad infections at that point, so it didn't affect them while they were forming! And because of that he said there is a better chance that his adult teeth might be fine as well!! yea!!
