Today I am going to the dentist. My family and I will walk through the doors of the big brown building
The dentist helps keep my teeth clean and healthy
I see all the staff that work behind the front desk. I will give the staff my name to check into my appointment.
They are so nice!
I will have a seat in the waiting room and wait to listen for my name to be called. There are so many toys and books for me while I wait.
When my name is called I will walk through the door and follow my helper to the special room.
My special helper will say hi to me and ask me to sit in this comfortable chair
The comfortable chair will lean back into a bed. I have to sit in the chair so my helper can help count my teeth
My helper will put on a mask and gloves to get ready to look at my teeth
She will use cool toys to help her look in my mouth. She will use a Mr. thirsty straw, a counter, and a mirror. She also has a cool water gun for me in case I get thirsty
I sit in the chair with my hands on my belly. I will open so big and and say AHHH so my teeth can be counted. Just like our friend Chomper!
I then choose a flavor of thoothpaste from our menu. So many options. YUMMY!!
She will help me count my teeth and tickle them with my special toothbrush. It spins around and makes my teeth super shiny and clean!
After the front and back teeth are clean she will floss and go in between! This helps get rid of the sugar bugs hiding in between my teeth.
What we do next is paint fluoride on my teeth with a very soft brush. This helps my teeth become strong.
They will give me a bag with floss, toothpaste and a toothbrush in it to take home. I smile so big because my teeth are strong, healthy and clean!
Now it's time for me to pick out a special prize because I did so well at the dentist!
