Sweet Tooth = Rotten Tooth

Ivan loves sweet stuffs. Some of his favourites are Kinder Joy, Chuppa Chup, Gummies, Chocolates in general and .. etc. *sigh* Thanks to his mummy (yah, me...). I have this hobby of buying him some sweet rewards (and bribes ... hhahaha!) and didn't really enforce brushing teeth till recently.

We noticed a blackened tooth and brought him to see a dentist. Hmm .. this is his first time seeing a dentist and didn't really know what to expect. I reckoned that by doing scaling first can help to prepare him mentally but Jef didn't agree with the idea. So, the little boy went ahead first. My oh my ... he started off ok (with me holding his hand) and then after filing up the first tooth (oh, did I say that there are 6 teeth with cavities?), he raised the flag. He is calling it off ...

Gee, the Dr is right. We cannot possibly force him to have all 6 teeth done up and as such, we would need to go back for a couple more rounds. Hmm .. meanwhile, no chocolates and sweet stuffs. That reminds me .. he slept without brushing ! :P ooppss .. !
