On Cade's cranial facial team in Austin, there is a pedi dentist, orthodontist and oral surgeon. Cade is not very cooperative with x-rays but we did know his 6 year molars were coming in deformed and with an enamel defect. He has already lost his bottom two center teeth and I'm pretty sure he swallowed one of them. So we scheduled dental surgery with the team at Dell Children's so they could get a good look at everything and pull what needs pulling.
He is very cooperative with his vital signs and lifts his shirt when they are coming at him with a stethoscope. He loved this hat that they gave him.
They found out that Cade is missing four permanent adult molars. Also his lower two 6 year molars were in pretty bad shape. She had to cut one of them out and on the other she fixed a cavity in the hopes to save it. So he is already missing 5 permanent adult teeth.

But the worst part is, they took out his two front teeth! White fang is gone! His new smile is going to take some getting used to.
