Going to the dentist was very hard for my kiddos, especially after getting a tooth pulled. They were extremely afraid of the blood after the tooth was extracted.
After going to the dentist, one thing I did was to buy them ice cream. The coldness of the ice cream can minimize the blood flow out from the mouth where the tooth has been extracted. Besides, it is one treat that they are brave enough to go to the dentist for.
