Dentophobia: fear of dentists.

Don't confuse this with the neoautodentaphobia which is the fear of getting a dent in your new car. This phobia can be serious because sufferers will often avoid needed medical treatment. Derrived from the Latin word "denti" which means tooth.

Odontophobia, dentophobia, dentist phobia, or dental anxiety, that should be your answer (all of the above are accepted terms).
