bought this online!
but unfortunately, I've made the wrong decision!
they come in a single pack and value pack.
the 'thrifty' me chose the value pack.
i thought i would diligently wipe his teeth every night before he goes to bed.
but did i ask KJ if he wants to do it?
I've neglected his feelings!
awwww bad mommy
I've only used a few pieces of the wipe
without me telling, u could have guessed why, could u?
he think it wasn't fun at all having me raped his mouth
-_______-
haha
he'd cry out loud! very sympathetically.
he's a child who hardly cries, so whenever he cries,
it'll be arrows shooting right through our heart.
hb would nail him to the bed while i'd quickly mop around the teeth
so the wipes become a white elephant after that. (i bought it Sept 2011)
i shall try to sell it off.
no point keeping since i won't be able to bake a baby in time :p
i would want to buy again though for my next baby.
my memory has failed me on how i came about to know about this wipe but after knowing about it, i was keen to try because kJ's teeth was yellow at the upper crown - near the gums.
brought him to the dentist when he was about 1 year old.
many people commented that i do now have to worry because they will have new sets of teeth later on.
how wrong they were!!
if u read more,
u need to keep them (the baby teeth) sparkling clean despite them dropping off to make way for permanent teeth.
there is more info to this so please goggle them.
in continuation of my story,
the dentist saw him and said he couldn't do much.
considering his age and the condition (there was a very tiny weeny whole in between his teeth),
he told me to practice good oral hygiene and to maintain the size of the hole.
not sure if the yellowish stain is caries or something else.
forgot to confirm with the dentist.
he gave a 6/12 appointment.
feb this year was the second appointment.
we saw Dr. Yani, a specialist pead's dentist i was told.
omg!
i don't know how to describe how much i love her!
she was excellent in dealing with kj that day!
she could talk non-stop,
not to me but to kj :p
by doing so, she got his attention and managed to make him open his mouth and display his teeth,
even if it was for a wee seconds.
the hole gets bigger, bad news :(
kj allowed her to brush his teeth both top and bottom using their electronic brush.
then she applied a gooey paste of fluoride, yellow in color.
can't drink water for 30 mins after that.
I'm so proud of u little boy!
the other time he cried so loud when we try to yank open his mouth!
lols
so the dr only managed / dared to apply the fluoride paste.
well, dr yani told us to go back every 3-4 months to get kj accustomed to them,
so that by age 4 or so, they can do the necessary if needed.
it is not worth while to anesthetize him now in order to carry out dental procedure.
above age 2,
toddlers can use fluoridated tooth paste!
he is now still using non-flouridated expensive toothpaste. i'll share more about that next time.
off i go to do some homework - to find out which toothpaste is good for him :p
