Jake at the Dentist

Jake had his first cavity filled. He had two small ones on two of his bottom teeth. He was nervous to go and kept saying that it was not a check up. The cavities were on top of the tooth so they tried to get it without numbing him. He would not breathe in the gas. It was funny trying to get him to breathe. He kept the thing on his nose but he would breathe through his nose. We finally gave up. When the dentist started drilling he got wiggly. We ended up just numbing the nerves so that he would relax. And he did. Then it was easy after that. I would hold his hands with one hand and hold the ipod with the other so that he could see a movie and concentrate on that. Luckily, our dentist is my uncle so our experience wasn’t as traumatic as some that I have heard about.
