My sweet Madi biffed it last night at our weekly Sunday dinner at the Allen's and lost half of her tooth. Luckily we have so many wonderful friends and we were able to get her into to a family friend, Dr. Giles, who is fabulous by the way!! Everything went well, they gave her a little laughing gas (which she was not happy with because it didn't actually make her laugh :) and bonded the piece right back on. I got a little more information than I was hoping for at this visit. He told me she's got an extra tooth right in the middle of her 2 front teeth ( hence the gap) and that it's impacted, so that needs to be taken out soon, and she also has a jaw alignment problem that is pretty severe so he's thinking an orthodontist will probably want to do 2 phases of braces on her (one now and one when she's older). Poor girl!
I am so proud of my little girl! She was so brave, she didn't even need her mommy there! ( don't worry I went back despite her wishes :) She did great and her beautiful smile is back! Love you girl!

Poor Girl! Madi We love you!!
Poor thing! it is always better to know these things sooner rather than later. Mitchell had an extra tooth between his two front teeth and had to have it removed.(They knocked him out, which was good.) It had made a serious gap by then. Madi's still looks manageable. After he got it removed, the front two teeth came in more normally. Of course they are still crooked until they get braces. ABout half of my family (nieces, nephews) have had two rounds of braces. I think they look so cute! They will be adorable on her:)
Madi, you did AWSOME! Major points for Dr.Giles. Isnt he awsome!?! I feel for you...you were there for our last major teeth-knocking-out accident and its not fun, Im just glad you got some pics. We love you Madi even if you would have ended up with a permanent snaggle-tooth!
Oh man! things to look forward too:) Hope she is ok! It was so fun seeing you the other day at the RACK!:) Heres our blog: acallfam.blogspot.com And yes you looked so awesome, let me in on the secret!:) -Emily (Everton)Call
