EWWWW!!!

Aspen went to the dentist last week, and was told that one of her molars really needed to come out. He told her if it didn't come out in 2 weeks, that she needed to come in to have it pulled. She Freaked!! This molar had an extra long root, and you could see the root as it was moving down out of place, but it just wasn't loosening up enough to just fall out. It actually came far enough down that it pushed the bottom molar underneath it so that it was twisted in under her tongue. Trust me, it's wierd looking!

Anyway, she was so scared to have it pulled, that she started working on it to try on loosen it up on its own. Well, she loosened it up enough to make it hurt real bad, and she asked Thomas to try and pull it out. He couldn't get a good enough grip on it, so he wrapped pliers with gauze....yes....pliers!!! She didn't care as long as he got that tooth out. He did get it out, and lucky for him, I wasn't home when he did it. I would never have let him do it!

She was really relieved not to have to have it pulled by the dentist. I was totally confused by that, as I would have opted for the numbing stuff! Oh well...it's out, and I don't have to pay the dentist to do it!
