Dentist

Today I took the girls for their first visit to the dentist. I had debated for a while if I should bring them to a Czech dentist or pay the money and bring them to an ex-pat dentist. I eventually decided to pay the money (40Euro each and that is only for an exam, no cleaning) and bring them to an expat dentist. Yes, I could have brought them to a Czech dentist but I wanted their first visit to the dentist to be easy. I didn't want to have to explain what I wanted in broken Czech and I didn't want to ease the fears of going to the dentist on top of explaining to the kids what the dentist was doing. In any event, I'm happy with my decision since the visit went great. Both kids were happy and did not show an ounce of fear. The dentist was really nice and was great with the kids. I wish I had brought my camera since the girls looked really cute laying int he dentist chair. The dentist gave them glasses to wear while they were in the chair so that the light wasn't too bright in their eyes which made them look even cuter. The dentist said that their teeth look great too so all in all a very successful trip. Now I have to go on Tuesday...hopefully it will be as easy.
