Let’s try to keep a stiff upper lip, as we look at another
fearsome phobia. OK, read my lips.
Dentophobia is the fear of dentists.
Dentophobia is a popular phobia. Tons of people would rather
give their eye teeth than climb into the dentist’s chair. I wouldn’t want to
bad-mouth dental professionals, but those who honestly enjoy dental visits may
be as scarce as hen’s teeth. And when cavities or complications lead to more extended appointments, folks may stress and sweat and fuss and fret.
Most of us try to grin and bear it and barely get out of such sessions by the skin of our you-know-whats.

And if anyone happens to have a sweet tooth, then those
dental visits may be multiplied over time.
Do I personally
suffer from dentophobia?
My lips are sealed.
