Today Maia had her first Dental check up! She did really well with it, except she didn't like to be on the chair when it was being moved up or down. Other then that she was a champ!
Here she is getting the tooth paste wiped off of her teeth.
We had this done at the dental school so there were a few different people walking around but Maia liked to look at the animal cards they had stuck to the ceiling and the fishes on the wall.
Any time the student would touch Maia's teeth she would start to giggle, which of course made everyone giggle a little. The dentist kept telling Maia that she must have ticklish teeth.
As of right now, Maia has all of her teeth in and they look healthy. She has a little bit of a cross bite but they think that might change as she gets older. The dentist said to see her again in 6 months. :)
She really did well on her first dental visit. I guess she had to adjust to the chair a little bit, but otherwise, the dental procedure appears to have gone smoothly. It's even amusing that she had a ticklish teeth. Continue helping her embrace dental treatments, since that cross bite is something that you guys will have to watch out for. Good day!

I like the idea of having animal cards on the ceiling and fish on the wall for children. It keeps them distracted while the dentist is working on their teeth. I hope your little one was able to adjust to the chair after a while. There are times when I feel like I am going to slide right off the chair when it starts leaning back.
