Answer 2

A dentist is a place where people go every 6 months. You sit in the dentist chair, they look at your teeth, they put this yellow stuff on your teeth to put vitamins in your teeth. (You can't taste it) Then they take a Xray of your teeth. (you bite down on). You get to pick out a flavor of mint, strawberry, bubble gum and etc. They put this foamy stuff all over this blue tray, you bite down on it, they suck off all of the foam. The dentist come in and tells you if your teeth is perfect, need braces or if you have any cavitys. If you have to get braces, they tell you do you know where you can go to see an orthodontist. If you have a cavity, I don't know what happens cause I never had a cavity. If your teeth is perfect they give you a goodie bag and they set up a nother apointment. Nothing hurts when you go to the dentist. The worst part is getting the X ray. Over all, It's fun, You can't eat anything for the next thirty minutes.
