>> NARRATOR: Dani has just lost her FIRST tooth. But now she has a lot of questions about what it means to lose your baby teeth … so she asks her mom.


>> MOM: 

Hey Dani you’re a big kid now

With teeth coming in and out.

Let’s make an appointment for you, 

for the big kid dentist to look at your mouth


>> DANI:

What do you mean mom?

Is there something going on?

Is something wrong?


[SWITCH BELL]


>> MOM:

It’s no big deal but …


The big kid dentist is the kind of dentist that a big kid goes to see

And how you know a little kid is becoming a big kid is when the little kid 

Starts losing her teeth!


And so that is you now!

That’s what we will do now!


>> DANI:

A big kid? Who? Is that true?

>> DANI:

But mom, what does it mean to have big kid teeth?

And if I’m losing all my teeth then what could a dentist even see?

And I know I’ve been but I can’t remember what the dentist was like for me, 

And if a big kid’s meant to see a big kid dentist then a big kid I must be 

But even though I lost a tooth I still feel like me!

How can that be?


[SWITCH BELL]


>> MOM:

Dani, Dani, Dani, Dani

You’re still YOU! Everyone loses a tooth or two

(Well all of them really )

That reminds me, I need to go call the big dentist and make an appointment for you..

And if a big kid’s meant to see a big kid dentist then a big kid I must be 

But I feel like me

Can I be…. A big kid?
