Asher’s tooth

Asher is seven and has been very slow losing his baby teeth. A few months ago both his front teeth began to get wobbly. Asher, being the incredibly patient soul he is, has waited for his teeth to fall out on their own, with no encouragement.

Recently though, his teeth began to get crooked, from his permanent teeth pushing down on his baby teeth. Every time he smiled I was reminded that those baby teeth needed to come out.

We did everything we could to show him how to work on them, but nothing seemed to work. Occasionally I would try to pull on it, but it wouldn’t budge. Finally he got serious and let daddy have a shot. Be warned, it might make those with weaker constitutions cringe…

    Yeah Asher!!
    He is so brave – Noah would have been on the floor screaming. His teeth would move when he would breath, but he wouldn’t let us pull them.
    I just love watching the video clips – to see the kids, and hearing them. Thanks!
    Love to all,
    Denise

    My son is 7 too! He is slowly losing his teeth- although it seems to be a winning battle at the dentists office 🙂 have hope they will fall out one way or another.
