Pulling Teeth

Riley has been going to the orthodontist since 2nd grade. The ortho has taken x-rays and looked at his teeth, talked about his bite etc. This last time, he gave us the task of making an appointment for Riley to have 4 baby teeth pulled. We did that yesterday. Riley has never had anything done to his teeth, except the twice a year cleanings. He's not a tooth wiggler. He firmly believes in letting the teeth fall out of his head, naturally.

Don't let his current, toothless (relieved) smiling face fool you. Let's just say Riley did not generate good publicity for the dentist yesterday.
