won't harm for a dentist to take a peek

I would take just to put her mind at rest

Well she's 11 - old enough to know her own mind - ask her whether she wants you to take her to the dentist - not a bunch of random?

Actually Geordie my answer would be er no

Bung some bonjela on it, it's just a molar coming through.
