Memories of dental care and fillings in childhood

Memories of dental care and fillings in childhood. In everyone’s heart, there is always an unforgettable childhood. At that time, we were innocent, cute and carefree, but we often made jokes for some reasons. After all, who didn't have one or two interesting things in their childhood? The following is a record of childhood dental visits and fillings. Notes on Dental Fillings in Childhood 1

According to the advice given by the doctor when she first visited the dentist, Xiaofei needed to have her teeth filled every other week. Of course, this was the doctor's advice to parents, and Xiaofei did not agree. Yes, Xiaofei did not agree. This is very important for whether the next visit to the dentist goes smoothly.

More important than preaching, extremely repulsive

For her second visit to the dentist, Fei’s father, I, and the teacher *** worked together to make preparations for her. The goal was to make her happy no matter what. Xiaofei went to the dentist within the specified time. Therefore, take the appropriate opportunity to remind her that she has to go to the dentist and get her teeth filled on Friday, and tell her especially about Friday and the "benefits of going to the dentist".

Faced with strong, continuous, and every possible means of persuasion, she still did not decisively agree. It wasn't until her father had a serious discussion on the way to school on Friday that she reluctantly agreed. For children, reluctant consent does not mean consent.

Why is Xiaofei unwilling to see the dentist at the time prescribed by the doctor? This requires us to feel it seriously.

When she first visited the dentist, she was still a little afraid of the unknown, and this fear has always troubled her. During this period, she asked me twice: Mom, what did the doctor aunt do to my teeth? Why do I feel like my teeth are being drilled with an electric drill? I also felt that the doctor's aunt was spraying water on my teeth. The spray was too strong and there was too much water, which made me very uncomfortable. She also told me about the scenes in "Afraid of Crocodiles and Afraid of Dentists", saying that the stories in the book are also an expression of her own mood.

When these feelings of a child are not seen by adults, they just tell her through reasoning: You must go and close the door for your teeth, otherwise Huck will Going in and out with Dick made my teeth hurt. In exchange for this reasonableness, the child still refused to go to the dentist and had a growing fear of going to the dentist, so she was particularly repelled.

Why are you so busy trying to reason? Because I am going on a business trip with my father for a while, I am worried that if she does not see her teeth in time and have her teeth filled, she will have toothache again while we are not at home. I am also afraid that the best period of treatment will be delayed. , praising her for her first dental visit will give her strength. This "I think" and "worry" is an important reason why it is easy for parents to engage in preaching. In preaching, children's feelings are often ignored, and emphasis is placed on solving problems rather than caring about children's moods.

Respect your feelings and make another appointment

When the scheduled time on Friday came, Dad drove Xiao Fei to continue seeing the dentist. Sure enough, when she arrived at the hospital, Xiao Fei shouted to go home. When she saw the doctor's aunt, she still shouted to go home. Let’s put aside the dental appointment first, and start chatting by looking into her eyes in a way that feels her feelings:

Me: Are you a little afraid of the dental appointment?

Xiao Fei nodded.

Me: Are you so scared?

Xiao Fei: It hurts——

Me: Oh

Xiao Fei: I won’t go to the dentist today, I haven’t thought about it yet.

Me: When can I think about it?

Xiao Fei: If you don’t know when to come, never come.

Me: Oh, so that’s what you planned?

Xiao Fei: I just don’t want to come again.

Me: Yes, take good care of your teeth. If it doesn’t hurt anymore, you don’t have to come.

Xiao Fei: It doesn’t hurt anymore. I want to go home.

Me: Okay, you have to go home.

At this time, Xiaofei's whole body was no longer stiff, fleeing, or struggling, but was softly attached to my arms, and her breathing became even.

The doctor’s aunt then started chatting——

Doctor: Xiao Fei, aunt will only look at the two teeth you had repaired last time, okay? Just take a look and you can go home.

Xiao Fei looked at her aunt’s face dubiously.

The doctor’s aunt squatted in front of Xiao Fei, smiling, with pleading eyes and a gentle tone. Xiao Fei thought about it and agreed.

The doctor’s aunt also kept her promise. She only took a look and agreed that Xiaofei could go home first.

Doctor: Xiaofei, Auntie, I have something to ask you to help me with. Let’s discuss it. Can the next time we meet be in a week? Auntie wants to take out cotton wool for the teeth...

Xiaofei nodded in agreement and checked with auntie.

At this time, Xiaofei’s face was filled with a feeling of being trusted and the experience of being able to make her own decisions. She looked very happy and had already gotten off of me. Standing opposite the doctor aunt.

Me: "Remember to remind mom and dad, Xiao Fei! The next time is -"

Xiao Fei: "Okay, no problem!"

< p> Fulfilling the promise, the tooth filling was successful

In this way, according to the appointment time between the doctor and Xiao Fei, we went to the hospital for the third time to see a tooth filling. This time Xiaofei and the doctor's aunt cooperated very well. It took a long time to get her teeth filled, but she persisted.

Thanks to the agreement they made, Xiao Fei did not cry or refuse.

During the treatment, when the aunt asked Xiao Fei, "Does it hurt?", "Is this strength suitable?", Xiao Fei nodded or responded, without any fear on her face, she was completely relaxed. , confident. It seemed that she was accomplishing something important and taking responsibility for the important decision she had made.

I have to admire the doctor! Because they keep the child’s experience in mind, filling teeth becomes a game between them.

Filling teeth is a technology, but the doctor aunt uses a psychological perspective to establish contact with Xiao Fei and interacts with Xiao Fei all the time. This is professional technology and work art: some items in the filling process, the doctor aunt He will first let Xiao Fei take a look, tell Xiao Fei what his name is, let Xiao Fei smell it, let Xiao Fei guess where Huck and Dick are now, tell Xiao Fei the color of the "door" made for the teeth, and the color of the teeth. The shape of the shape made Xiao Fei touch her teeth repeatedly to feel whether it was comfortable...

Because she understood, she had no fear; because she saw it, she had extra trust.

After filling the tooth, several doctors and aunts gave Xiaofei great praise, affirming Xiaofei’s commitment and bravery, and thanking Xiaofei for her active cooperation with the aunts, so that the aunts The work can be completed successfully.

At the elevator entrance, Xiaofei said: When you make a decision with your aunt, you must keep your word. This filling is very comfortable.

Yes, we must do what we have planned. Isn’t this the important quality we want our children to have?

The setting sun shone warmly on Xiaofei’s body, her black hair was shining with gold, like she was wearing a crown, which reminded me of the book "Your Crown, My Baby" . As she walked towards the car, she looked around for any words she recognized. Suddenly there was a word "人", and I took a closer look. There was indeed a word "人" on an advertisement slogan, and it shined particularly brightly in the sunset, as eye-catching as Xiao Fei who was growing up.

When I opened the car door, I made a special "Y" gesture to Xiao Fei to congratulate Xiao Fei on this surpass. Xiaofei said that she would share her experience of dental fillings with the aunt at Shengxi Hospital to many, many people... I know that in her heart, a seed of love and gratitude is quietly sprouting. Memories of dental care and fillings in childhood 2

In everyone’s heart, there is always an unforgettable childhood. At that time, we were innocent, cute, and carefree, but we often made jokes for some reasons. After all, who didn't have one or two interesting things in their childhood?

I remember that when I was a child, I loved to eat sweets. All kinds of hard candies, soft candies, and marshmallows were accepted. I ate them openly and secretly. If this continued for a long time, it would cause "serious" consequences. ——I have tooth decay.

In order to save my teeth, my parents had to take me to have my teeth filled. At first, I was quite curious about the dental hospital, but when I walked into the hospital, I was really shocked.

In front of him were a series of scary large-scale mechanical equipment, a wide and towering tooth extraction chair, bright spotlights, a group of doctors wearing large masks "waving" pliers and drills "ferociously", and bursts of children could be heard from time to time. The crying and the smell of alcohol in the air made me even more nervous.

I hurriedly hid behind my parents, but in the end I couldn’t escape the “dental filling disaster”. My parents dragged me and pushed me onto the recliner for tooth fillings.

The doctor came to check my cavities. I kept my mouth tightly closed and refused to open it. "Be good, open your mouth," the doctor said. I frowned and pursed my lips to resist without responding. "Hurry up, open your mouth quickly," the doctor urged. I tightened my mouth a little more. "If you don't open your mouth, I'll kill you!" the doctor threatened with "malintentions." Seeing that there was no way out, I reluctantly opened my mouth.

"Oh, this part is no longer good, it's completely eaten out," the doctor said. My heart suddenly jumped, and I thought, this is the end. Before I could even prepare, the doctor took out the anesthesia needle and gave me a strong blow on my gums. "Ouch!" I screamed in pain. After a while, half of my face was numb and I lost all consciousness. . I had an overwhelming panic.

At this time, the doctor took out the drill bit. The cold light was shining, and it was spinning rapidly with a "squeaking" sound. It was slowly approaching my teeth. A chill ran down my spine. I desperately wanted to avoid it but couldn't. No place to hide. I was so scared that my mind went blank, and my little heart almost jumped out of my throat. At that moment, the drill bit made contact with the tooth. Suddenly, broken teeth flew around in his mouth. I felt an unprecedented fear and wanted to cry out for help, but because the drill bit was stuffed in my mouth, I couldn't make a complete sound, so I had to close my eyes tightly and clenched my fists with both hands, hoping that this disaster would end soon.

I don’t know how long it took, but my tooth was finally filled. I was paralyzed, staggered out of the recliner, and asked my mother with a pale face: "Mom, will I die?" The question made my parents laugh, "It's possible!" Dad said seriously, suppressing his laughter. I was so frightened that I burst into tears. I burst into tears. "No, no, dad is joking. Don't you think you're fine?" Mom comforted me while wiping my tears. I breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put away the snot and tears. I thought about how embarrassing I had just been and started laughing.

Although a long time has passed, this unforgettable dental filling experience is still fresh in my memory. Every time I think about it, I can’t help but laugh.
