Keith did much better this time around with keeping his teeth in good shape.  I am glad.  I still have to tell him every day but at least he is brushing now.  The dentist was pleased also.  (oh, and I got a good report too. )

Do you all have trouble getting your children to brush thier teeth?

Well, I guess I am getting used to getting bit at his point. He will gag on a toothbrush, so I try and use a small cloth around my finger. I hear this gets better as they get older. We tried our first dentist appt. last month. He is 3 1/2. He wouldn't stop screaming so we had to just leave.  He is still at a point where you really can't explain anything with words or pictures.   Glad you had good news. Now only if I could get my older nt kids to remember on their own.
