Beckem came home from Daycare about three weeks ago with his front tooth chipped. He told us he was chewing on rocks and it broke his tooth. I thought it would be fine and for a few weeks he just had a chipped tooth. Last weekend he was waking up about every one to two hours just screaming that his tooth hurt. I took him in Monday morning to the dentist and he has a big abscess above the tooth along with the chip in the tooth. We decided the best option for the situation would be to pull his tooth out. Poor Beckem was NOT happy. He hasn't had much luck at the dentist this year : ( I feel so bad for him!!
Lesson learned: we don't chew on rocks. The dentist told Beckem, the rocks will always win and your teeth will always lose. ha ha ha We found that out the hard way.
The toothfairy made her visit to him. Beckem was pretty excited because he got TWO packs of gum and a dollar.
Tooth or no tooth, this little man is so stinking cute!!
