Teeth

     Today was an exciting, but worrisome day for Isaac. Because of a condition called ectodermal dysplasia, Isaac and Landon were born without the ability to sweat, and instead of having two big front teeth, their canine teeth grow in their place. So, when they reach a certain age they have to go in to the dentist to have them built up and filed to look more like a normal tooth shape.
     Isaac woke up this morning and seemed worried. My mom asked him what was wrong and he replied, "Today I have to get my tooth thing done, remember?"
     She was impressed that he remembered since she herself had almost forgotten. He must have been pretty nervous about the whole thing. Here are some pictures of before and after!

                       He told the dentist he really likes the way he looks now! We all like it too.
