Dentistry will lead you little bit pain but its necessary for your dental health. As precaution is better than cure. You should take dentistry checkup regularly.
Our dental health is too much important for Body Health. As it assists in growing up.

Call your nearest dentist and ask if they offer nitrous oxide gas.  You won't be unconsious, but you won't care a bit.  I feel the same way about the dentist and that stuff has been a life saver, or better said, tooth saver :)
