Playing dentist worked perfectly for my just turned 3 yo. He has been to the dentist previously where they just count his teeth, but they cleaned his teeth at the last appointment. We practiced with the mirror from his doctor kit and I also used a toothbrush and made a buzzing sound. I even had him close his mouth for the “suction”. He loveddddd it and was so awesome at the appointment. I think preparing kids makes such a big difference!! Hope it goes smoothly for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866837 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 20:23:12 +0000 jhd 2866837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@misolee: glad you found it! My 4yo has been talking about the “bumpy” toothpaste ever since haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866836 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 20:22:30 +0000 jhd 2866836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@muffinsmuffins: this is also a great idea! We have played doctor before but I never thought about playing dentist. Totally going to try this before our next appointments! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866834 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 20:07:59 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2866834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you’re sure the 6 year old will be good can he go first and the three year old watch? My daughter freaks at things sometimes but if my son goes first and is calm, she is too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866820 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 19:35:25 +0000 muffinsmuffins 2866820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The episodes worked well but also pretending to be a dentist. We happen to have a vet kit so we got him to practice on us opening our mouth and putting the mirror in and vice versa. He loved that and did amazing cooperating at the dentist for his first cleaning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866815 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 19:22:41 +0000 misolee 2866815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbells @jhd</p> <p>Found it on the app on our Apple TV! Currently watching 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866804 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 18:51:08 +0000 jhd 2866804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Daniel Tiger episode is new and we just watched it on the PBS kids app the other day so it should still be there. My LO also likes the Peppa episode. We also have it as a book. There’s a Curious George book and Mercer Mayer Little Critter book too if you could find Kindle versions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866797 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 18:17:55 +0000 SweetCaroline 2866797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mr. Rogers goes to the dentist in one episode. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866790 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 17:31:23 +0000 erinbaderin 2866790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There’s an episode of Peppa where they go to the dentist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866785 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 17:04:11 +0000 Mrsbells 2866785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@misolee: Is he into daniel tiger? There is an episode where he goes to the dentist. Probably available on YouTube </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-resource-to-show-for-going-to-dentist#post-2866784 Tue, 15 Jan 2019 17:01:54 +0000 misolee 2866784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dentist appt tomorrow for my six year old and almost 3. Six year old does great. Always have, even at age two. 3 year old does not. Last time they did like a get to know dentist visit where they just count your teeth and he refused to open mouth. He winced and pulled back when they opened his mouth, etc. He is super stubborn and strong willed. Oh and we just got back last week from doctors visit (fever for 5 days) and they tested him for flu and strep which he freaked out on. Sigh. </p> <p>Anyways. Is there a kids show I can show him? Thought we had a dentist book but can’t find it </p>
