twin tooth

Now that Nathan is three it was his turn to take to the Dentist's chair. He's been to Dr. Bradsher's office more times that I can recall; he's sat in the chair and tried it out but this was his turn. He was ready. Ready mostly for a new tooth brush and a ring! He did a superb job in the chair. He even tried to answer questions with all that stuff stuck in his mouth!

I had already spoken to our dentist about this weird thing that I noticed in Nathan's mouth. This time however I understood better what it really is. He has a "twin tooth". Instead of 2 front teeth Nathan has 3. He is one of 0.5% to 2.5% of Caucasian children to have this double tooth.

If you look close, you can see on his right side the twin tooth. Pretty cool anomaly.
