Poor Landon started to complain about a tooth and everytime I asked him about it he would say it was all better. Well about a month after first hearing about it, it got a lot worse. It was waking him up at night and he cried a lot. They couldn't get him into the dentist for a couple days so the poor boy lived on tylenol and ibuprofen. Landon had to have a root canal so we were referred to a pediatric dentist to see how bad it was. The dentist took one look at the xrays and said he just had to pull it. It wasn't worth trying to save. So he has a spacer in between a couple molars in the back to keep the space there so when he grows up his older tooth can grow in. Poor guy didn't know how he felt about being all numb. He kept rubbing his face and nose and biting his poor tongue. We kept him on medicine for a couple days and he had to be on amoxicillin for 10 days, but he is doing so much better and trying to stay away from the sweets.
