Tooth Problems continued

I took Kayl to the dentist yesterday and they took an x-ray and refered me to a pediatric dentist. I then took him straight to that dentist. He took a good look at his teeth and then told me that Kayl has to have surgery on his mouth. Their goal in doing this is that they can fix his entire mouth in one sweep. They have to pull four of his teeth and make him a retainer with four little fake teeth on them so he still has teeth. They also are going to fix the rest of his teeth with crowns and stuff like that. Since he is two the dentist was nervous that his molars hadn't started to come in but to his and my surprise they are almost broken thru. His surgery is schedualed for next Thursday. That's right, the day after he turns two. It's days like this that I wish I had more money. I'm nervous because he has never been under general anesthisa before. I'll keep ya'll updated.
