Evan's dental work went really well. He walked back to the surgery area without me just fine, he was holding the hand of the dentist. Poor guy did not know what he was in for at all. They gave him a little gas to relax him and then put in the IV to start the IV sedation. I believe the dentist also numbed his mouth as well. They took x-rays which is something they cannot do when he is awake. He ended up getting silver crowns on all of his back teeth and a small filling on his front tooth which was chipped and the dentist fixed the chip so he has a whole tooth now. He woke up fine from the anesthesia but he was really cranky and I think he was in some pain, the nurse gave him some stuff to help with the pain and I think it finally kicked in about 30 minutes later. The plan is for the crowns to prevent any fursther cavities.
Grandma Josie met up with us and took us to McDonald's and got Evan an ice cream and a kids meal which he only wanted the toy from. Evan was back to his old self today with the added look of silver teeth.
