buck tooth vaneers!

So I love how I lost track of where I was at.
 But Im thinking we were at corbins dental work.
So that’s where were gonna pick up where we left off.
So corbin had his  3rd dental procedure done a few weeks after he had his last seizures.
 Needless to say, he looks just plain silly.
All of the necessary antibiotics, medicines, PTN’S  lipids, type of formula he was on, the reflux medicine, iron and fluoride drops, all have basically ruined his teeth, which we were told that all that medicine would affect his permanent teeth as well as the baby teeth.
 His permanent ones will come in some shade of brown, but not sure how bad or even if they will be brown at all.
either way if they need it, they will be fixed.
his first dental surgery, he was too young to be put to sleep in the office so we had to drive all the way to Smyrna, to the Smyrna surgical center to have him put to sleep, so that they could fix his teeth. 
I think it was a total of four cavities, a baby root canal, or a pulpotamy as they like to call it, on one of his front incisors. Also, they put two silver crowns on two of the teeth which they did the pulpotomies on those to teeth as well.
Then they put bonding on his two front teeth and the one between the front tooth and the left k9.
One front tooth grew in normal, the other grew in with a chip in it, and brown at that.
Then the one beside the k9 just basically broke down to the gum line.
So that was his first dental procedure. 
I really didn’t mean to go that deep into his first one.
But it was a big deal to us because it was under general anesthesia.
The second one I didn’t get to go because I had strep. Lucky me! 
the one he just had about a couple of weeks ago , allen and I got ready and headed up there early, so we could get there in time for him to drink the goofy juice,  and wait on daddy to get back.
He had to go and give all his information  to the bonnarroo people and get his bracelet.
when he finally made it back, I was past exerted, because corbin did the complete opposite of what he did last time drinking that goofy juice. 
This time he fought the medicine. 
He was yelling, screaming, singing, crawling around like a baby all over the dentist office.
HE WAS A MESS!
When it was time, they came and got us and we went into the room with him and watched dr. curry work on his little bitty tiny teeth.
after they did the other 3 pulpotamies on his front four teeth,he had 3 porcalin crowns put on .
They mentioned just pulling his teeth and let him just run around all snaggle tooth, But dr. curry decided that he would rather see corbin with teeth than to see him with out any.
Even if they are baby teeth, the only problem we have is the crowns are just way too big for his little bitty tiny mouth, and they are much bigger than the rest of his teeth.
Also a totally different color than the  others too.
My poor feller has basically got buck tooth vaneers! Haha!!!!
No joke!
  he even talks differently now.
I have even seen him bite his lip on accident just trying to talk.
 So when he goes back for a check up, were gonna see if they cant just shave them down some or just take them out.
But for now were gonna do our best getting used to them.
I admit, he does look cute with big buck teeth lol
