Just to give everyone an update....
I took Tyler to his new dentist and everything was great. She was so nice and caring. She looked at all the x-rays, cleaned his teeth (the other place did not do that) and gave him a fluoride treatment. She told us that he has 2 early cavities and that with good brushing at home and fluoride treatments every 6 month they should be OK with out filling them. As for all his other teeth they just need to be cleaned. I am so happy that we went to see another dentist.

When DS first got his teeth, the lower front teeth had brownish stain to them and I was sooo worried they were rotting. I was relieved to find out that his teeth were heavily stained -- probably from adeks 'cuz he hasn't had this issue since he's gotten regular cleanings -- every 3 months and he's no longer on those vitamin drops.

Also, early on I used baby toothpaste, instead of kids toothpaste. I later discovered that the baby toothpaste was pretty much worthless and that the other stuff did a much better job at cleaning.

My son needed alot of dental work and was put under. Alot of his problem was drinking some much pediasure orally and not rinsing after every drink. They now tell us to do that. So is your child is on one of those drinks keep that in mind. My son did ok, except the part where I told them specifically that I needed to be there when he woke up or he would have a fit and not be able to breath and that is exactly what happened so they needed to give him a special breathing treatment of racepinephrine and that helped.
