It had been 2 days since Edwards exam and Carlisle decides Jasper should be next.

At breakfast Carlisle says " Jasper, I'd like to do your exam today" looking at his son over his paper.

Jasper replies " Sure, ok dad" not really bothered.

A few hours later Carlisle leads Jasper to his dental exam room.

Carlisle says " Have a seat for me Jazz. I'll be with you in a minute".

Jasper does as he's asked while Carlisle takes out a sterilised set of tools out of the plastic container then puts them on an instrument tray.

Carlisle walks over to Jasper, puts the tray down then adjusts the chair so it's more to Jasper's size.

Carlisle washes his hands, puts on a pair of gloves then sits down on his seat next to Jasper.

Carlisle asks " How are you feeling today Jazz?" smiling warmly at his son.

Jasper admits " I'm fine... maybe a little nervous but I'm ok" honestly

Carlisle replies " It's ok Jazz. It's perfectly normal to feel that way. You have nothing to worry about bud. I promise" as he rubs Jasper's arm reassuringly.

Jasper smiles at his dad and says " Ok pa".

Jasper wasn't scared of dentist's, it was just he got nervous before the exam. Though they never really bothered him.

Carlisle asks " Are you ready to start Jazz?" sweetly.

Jasper replies " Yeah, I'm ready pa" calmly.

Carlisle praises " Good boy. This won't hurt a bit. I promise" then leans the chair back and turns on the overhead light, positioning it over Jaspers mouth.

Carlisle sweetly says " Open wide for me please bud" as he picks up his tools.

Jasper does as he's told with out hesitation.

Carlisle praises " That's my boy. Good job Jazz" as he gently does a quick but thorough exam of Jasper's teeth.

Carlisle says " Everything looks good, bud. I'm going to clean your teeth now. What flavour do you want Jazz? We have Strawberry, Cherry, Grape, Mint or I just got cotton candy flavour".

Jasper replies " Grape, please pa" with a small smile.

Carlisle smiles back at Jasper, prepares the toothbrush and kindly says " Ok Jazz, open up nice and wide for me son".

Jasper does as he's told and sits still while Carlisle gently cleaned his teeth. Jasper was surprised at how gentle Carlisle was.

It wasn't that he expected it to hurt, or thought Carlisle would hurt him. It was just Carlisle was so gentle he hardly felt him working, though it did tickle a little, not that Jasper minded.

Carlisle praise's " That a boy. You're doing great, my little Texan. Keep up the good work for me. We're almost done" a minute later Carlisle was done and has Jasper rinse.

Jasper does as he's told then lays back in the chair.

Carlisle praise's " Good boy, you're going a great job bud. I'm going to examine your teeth now. Then we're done. Ready Jazz?"

Jasper replies " Sure dad" and opens his mouth ready for Carlisle.

Carlisle praise's " Good boy. This won't take long" as he once again gently and thoroughly examines Jasper's teeth.

Carlisle was pleased to see their was nothing wrong with Jasper's teeth, his gums were healthy and his brushing was good. Carlisle was very proud of Jasper for taking such good care of his teeth.

Carlisle remover his tools putting them down on the instrument tray, turns off the over head light and rights the chair.

Carlisle Praise's " Good boy. Jazz you did great. Your teeth are perfect, very healthy. You take good care of your gums too. I very proud of you Jasper. You were such a good boy and you take such wonderful care of your teeth. Lots of people don't look after their teeth nearly as well as you Jazz.

I wish all my patients were as willing and well behaved as you" with a smile.

Jasper's a little embarrassed at his dads appraisal but smiles proud of himself and says " Thanks dad"

Carlisle replies " You're welcome my southern baby. Jasper for being such a good patient you deserve 2 stars" then puts them by Jasper's face on the reward chart.

Jasper smile's and says " Wow, thanks dad. You're the greatest" gets out of the dental chair and hugs Carlisle.

Carlisle hugs Jasper back proudly and replies " Thank you Jasper. I love you my southern baby. Thank you for taking such good care of your teeth, lots of people don't" in a loving tone.

Jasper smiles brightly and says " I love you too dad. Thank you for my stars" as they let go and look at each other.

Carlisle replies " It's ok son, you've earned them. Come on Jazz we're done" then wraps his arm proudly around Jaspers shoulders and leads the out. Carlisle would tidy up later but for now he wanted to spend some time with his son.
