Cousin Bernie would be horrified

We have had dentist appointments before, but the x-rays this time showed 8-10 cavities in Deven's 4 year old mouth. Cousin Bernie is a Dentist in Pennsylvania...I'm debating whether to send her this or not...

The Dentist suspected juice & bad foods at first, except that we don't have ANY juice at home. He may drink juice at birthday parties, bit that's it. Together we then determined the likely causes - inadequate flossing & genetics (not from the Sherwood-Orthner side!)

Poor little guy had 3 cavities filled on Saturday; with another 5 to be done next week. And yes, we are brushing & flossing 2x/ day from now on. He (& Rohan) don't mind doing it, thank goodness.
