Well, it's been six months since the boys went to the dentist, so it was time for them to go again.
They have a cute little play area in the waiting room, so I figured the boys would stay occupied while each took a turn going back to get their teeth cleaned and examined. Unfortunately, Ben was nervous to go back by himself, so we all got to go back together.
Despite Daniel crying the whole time and the boys not being able to leave things alone (they kept moving the light, playing with the instruments, going through the box of toothbrushes, etc), it went fairly well.
They all picked their flavor of polish after Ben and Alex got their x-rays taken. Ben picked mint and Alex and Chris both picked fruit punch. Chris was especially impressive as he sat still for his examination and cleaning and was very cooperative.
The good news is that none of them have cavities this time, so that was it for the next six months for them, unless we decide to take Ben in sooner than that to get the sealants on his permanent molars (they said we should wait a month or two for that, but can wait until his next cleaning and examination). So it will be another 6 months before I have to go wrestle them all into the dentist's office again. I'm sure it will go way too fast.

Nice feeling to have no cavities, isn't it.
