The Tooth Saga Continues!

We went to the dentist today and the tooth isn't dead! YAY! Apparently, the blood from the injury leaked into the tooth (yuck, huh?). If this were a permanent tooth, eventually a dentist would drill a hole into the back and clean out the old dried blood. Since this is a baby tooth, the dentist is hoping that it doesn't get any browner - and said there is even hope of it fading over time. (Fingers crossed).

We go back in 3 months for a check up - hopefully, the tooth will be lighter! She will get all the normal stuff done at that time (cleaning, fluoride, etc). The dentist did take a quick peel and told me all her teeth were healthy and clean! Good news, considering Grace is addicted to sugar!
