And a clean bill of dental health! :D Woohoo! We were suspecting that my use of a certain medication during pregnancy contributed to Hannah's dental problems--at age 3 1/2 she already has numerous fillings and a crown.

I did not use that medication during pregnancy with Micah and so I'm pleased to see that his teeth appear to be faring much better! Hannah had staining on the backs of her front teeth that my dentist and I think is intrinsic but Micah's front teeth are perfect.

Praise the Lord!

Awww that is a great report for Micah! My kiddos for unexplainable reasons some have decay and some are fine, heredity is all we could ever come up with.

Awesome! I know that is a HUGE relief.

I have one who has hereditarily bad teeth...all the rest have been fine. Same treatment all along. Heredity is the only explanation. But it's still so upsetting to hear when he needs work done.

Yeah, I feel ya, that's for sure. I have fed mine the same and brushed their teeth at about the same level, so the medication that I took for 1/2 of my pregnancy is about the only thing that I can think of that would've caused bad teeth.

How much dental work did your little guy need?
