Oh my gosh I am going to the dentist too today!:) haha and don't worry, honestly there's nothing you should be afraid of, if it's your first time, he/she is just going to check out your mouth and stuff and if nothing is wrong you won't have to come back again. So just relax and pretend like you're going over to your friends house or something. Hope I helped, good luck:)
Oh and some dentist offices have t.v for you to watch while they check out your mouth and stuff, so that will help you relax a little bit:) if not just day dream, it always helps me

I find going to the dentist quit relaxing actually:) and you will too after a couple of times:)



Just take it as it comes and tell yourself that one day your gonna look back at this and laugh about it. In the future your gonna probably talk to your friends and be like: Yea! I remember when I was younger I was so scared to go to the dentist and I didn't go for 5 years straight lololol good times...



If you have an iPod listen to your favorite music while he's working on your mouth! If not just think of the songs in your head (but be careful not to sing, LOL!)

Read a good book on the way to get your mind off it!

Tell the dentist you're nervous, he will help you.
