Baby Akif

My first visit to the DENTIST

Today is my first visit to the dentist. Ibu has been preparing and telling me over the past few months that she will be bringing me to a doctor who is going to check and brush my teeth. She got me to practice opening my mouth when instructed and also practice on the correct ways to brush my teeth.

Hence, I was mentally prepared for THIS visit. While waiting for my turn, I get to play with toys. I love to play in the playhouse. It was fun to pretend play with Ayah.



Not long after, the dentist calls for me. His name is Dr Rashid. He was so warm and pleasant. He sure makes me feel at ease. He started to discussed about my daily diet and brushing habits. He shows me the proper way to care and brush my teeth. I got to brush a big teeth model too. After the entire intro, I was put on the dentist’s chair with Ayah. Dr Rashid started counting my teeth and I have 20 teeth in all: ) As I was kinda nervous, Dr Rahsid got me to be involved and allows me to hold on to a small mirror to check on my own teeth. Ibu finds that cute and funny hhheeee



After all the checks, he concluded that my teeth are free from any tooth cavities or any oral health diseases. He said that the spacing between my teeth are also well spaced out. Oh boy, Ibu was so happy to hear that. Unlike my normal visit to clinics where I’m always offered a sweet, today I was given a toy and a toothbrush as a reward for being a good patient. Cool…



Can you see my shiny white pearlies?
