We noticed that Rowan has a little spot that is discolored on one of his front teeth . So , when we took him for his 12-month appointment with the pediatrician , I asked about it . And , her response was , " I ' m sure it 's nothing , but it could be a cavity , so I 'll refer you to a pediatric dentist and you should go see her soon . " All I heard was , " He has a cavity " Of course , I freaked out a bit .

Question: Why might I have freaked out when I heard the word cavity ?
Answer: I thought I could n't be the type of mother whose kids have cavitites .I felt so bad for myself because it meant drills and shots .None of the above choices .I have been meticulous about brushing and caring for his entire mouth
