Dr. Lil Wayne Gave This 4-Year-Old Girl a Sweet Stainless Steel Grill You’re a mother in Phoenix. You take your daughter to the dentist. She’s four. She’s adorable. You hear from the dentist that l’il Savannah has four cavities. The dentist asks you if he can fill them. You agree, and you’re ushered into the waiting room. Savannah is sedated, and she’s groggy when she gets out of the chair. You take her home, and she takes a nap. When she wakes up, you find out her mouth qualifies her to be a rapper. via AZFamily.com </noscript> via AZFamily.com The girl’s mother, Alecia White, is furious. “On a daily basis she says, ‘Mommy, I don’t like my teeth. I don’t like my teeth,’” White told her local consumer reporter. “And it’s really kind of hard to hear every single day.” But it turns out, a dental expert questioning by local AZFamily.com, agreed with the dentist’s decision to give Savannah the crowns: White wanted to know if a mouth full of stainless-steel crowns is normal for a child. So, 3 On Your Side consulted Dr. Richard Chaet, who’s been in dentistry for more than 30 years. Chaet is the former president of the Arizona Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and was responsible for writing guidelines for pediatric dentists across the nation. He’s never met Savannah, but agreed to look at some photographs we provided. “I did say ‘wow’ because she did have a lot of silver caps on her teeth,” Chaet said. Chaet claimed that although it looks bizarre, all of those caps were necessary to fill Savannah’s cavities and to save other teeth that were probably deteriorating. “This is a child who is obviously very high risk for decay,” Chaet said. He went on to say that some dentists probably would have gone a step further by putting on white veneers to cover a lot of those silver caps even if the patient couldn’t afford it. Chaet said a lot of dentists would have done it free of charge because children are sensitive about how they feel and look. And that’s exactly what happened to Savannah. Another dentist who actually saw Savannah’s teeth offered to put on those veneers free of charge. Eh, they’ll laugh about this in the years to come. And if nothing else, she’ll have great material for a #throwbackthursday on Instagram. [h/t The Blaze]
