The Burning Question: Do you mind going to the dentist?

You have to go to the dentist every six months to have a check-up and I do. I have never had to have a filling yet. I am very good about brushing my teeth and when I go to the dentist he always gives them a special clean. I'm not too bad about sweets either, I wouldn't eat too many.

I don't mind going to the dentist at all and I have some fillings. Once I got a bit chipped off my tooth and had to have an injection in my gum, but it didn't bother me. I use an electric toothbrush and I'm very good about brushing my teeth and going to see the dentist regularly.

I quite like my dentist. I had a filling once but then that tooth fell out. I can't remember how much money I got for it from the tooth fairy. The dentist tells you to try to not eat too many sweets and to brush your teeth every day - I almost always remember.

I don't mind going to the dentist although I can't remember the last time I was there. I brush my teeth every night but sometimes I forget in the morning when I'm in a rush. I once had toothache and it was very sore. I don't worry about how many sweets I eat.

I'm not keen on the dentist and I'm not sure if I go every six months - I don't have any fillings though, and I brush my teeth every morning and night. I have to be because my mum and dad keep telling me. I wouldn't worry about eating things that might be bad for my teeth.
