Time for the Orthodontist


Well...it's that time. Time to get braces for Tanner. Poor kid inherited his mother's teeth!!! We spoke with the orthodonist and the first step is going to be having a couple of teeth pulled. Then spacers and then an expander placed on the roof of his mouth.

Tanner is excited...all he can think about is what color bands he's going to have put on. His favorites at the moment are: black/green (school colors), purple/gold (his football team colors) or red/black (middle school colors). I'm going for the black & green, but he's leaning towards the purple. Not sure why that's so exciting for him...but whatever floats your boat!

Here he is getting some x-rays done...

And here he is with Dr. Payne (I know, funny name for an orthodonist) But, he is the best in town...and right down the street from school! We love him already!

Thanks so much for leaving a comment on my recipe blog! I had to come check out your blogs of course. Man, it looks like you have a very fun Bunco group! I've always talked about getting one started but never seem to get around to it.
I was smiling at how many blogs are on your list of ones you look at that are also on mine. Looks like we have similar tastes!!
I'm glad to see this orthodontist recommendation too! My kids' dentist has already said they'll need some work when they are older, so it is great to know there is a good one close. We must live very close to each other, since Bridgetower is close to us as well. We live over in Lochsa Falls.
Nice to "meet" you! :)
