As I see how her new teeth are coming out, it appears that we will need to save for some braces. When her two lower front teeth (central incisor) came off and the permanent teeth came out, she started pushing them out. I told her she need to to that so she won’t have an abnormal teeth growth. She is doing that for long but it seemed it won’t do any good unless the lateral incisors (beside the central incisor) will come off. Her milk teeth are too tiny and now that her new teeth are coming out, it is becoming too crowded in there. :lol: But if we will not be lucky, we already accepted that we will really need to shell out some moolah just to get her teeth fixed. That will be in 7 years or 10 maybe.

But I am still hoping for some miracle so we won’t need the magic that a Plano cosmetic dentist can do. Donald can so relate when Ella says she is shying away each time she was asked to smile. Donald has a diastema or a gap between his upper front teeth. This made him feel a little bit insecure when he was growing up so he knows how important a beautiful smile is. Ella has been praised by so many people with her beautiful teeth. Her front teeth just came off without being rotten. I just wish her new set of teeth will be as nice.

I love that song and now that is my Ella’s theme song.

I should have waited a little longer to post my entry last night because after I did, Ella announced her loose tooth is about to come off.

She showed it to me first and when I checked, it is not that loose yet. I told her to wait for another day. Duh! I always delay everything…..you know naman I get so nervous when it comes to my kids. I am a warrior kid before and did all the pulling by myself but it’s a lot different now. I can’t do it anymore. She wouldn’t take a NO or WAIT for an answer. She wanted to get it pulled that instant like there is no tomorrow so she bugged Donald. Well Donald checked it and agreed that it is not yet very loose and that she should wait until the next day. We asked her to wiggle waggle it so it will be good to go the next day. I do not know what she has eaten because she insisted that she wanted it done ASAP and not wait. I think she really took my word so seriously about making sure her baby teeth will get pulled before the permanent ones comes in so she will have a beautiful set of teeth. No need for braces. She was so excited and was beaming when Donald took her aside to be her personal dentist. In just a few minutes, the tooth came off. No tears, no sweat. I was really really really dreading the day when she needs to get her teeth pulled but I am very eased now with her reaction and attitude. I am one proud Mommy! :-)
