John finally got to the dentist for the first time. We found out that OHSU has a dentist for developmentally disabled kids so of course we signed him up.
We had to buckle him down tightly and 3 of us held him down why they tried to take a look. He wasn't very happy about it and let them know it. She was able to do a little cleaning (maybe 1 minutes worth), then they painted some flouride on. We tried really hard to get an x-ray, but were unsuccessful - he was just moving too much. As far as they could tell, everything looked OK. They said we'll do more at our next appt. in 6 months. I hate to tell them that it won't be any easier in 6 months! If anything, he'll just be that much stronger.
