The toddler had her baby teeth when her mom took her to Austin Children’s Dentistry to fill two cavities in March.
Pediatric specialist, Dr. Michael Melanson, told her that Daisy needed to be put under anesthesia.
A promotional video shows how Dr. Melanson reassures jittery parents about anesthesia.
“If a child is nervous in the dentist office which is more common that you think,” he said in the video. “We can bring them back for a sedation appointment [to] make sure they're calm and comfortable and safe.”
Daisy was sedated and the procedure was underway when Betty says the doctor suddenly appeared with startling news.
“He told me things have changed, [and it's] six cavities,” she told Inside Edition. “We're going to go ahead and do 4 crowns and 2 fillings.”
