When I was a kid, I was TERRIFIED of going to the dentist.
I wouldn’t be able to sleep for a couple nights before my appointment and I was full of nerves.
These days?
Pssshhhht! No problem at all!
I don’t particularly enjoy going, but I’m not losing any sleep over it.
Check out some funny tweets about going to the dentist and we’ll hear from you in the comments!
1. Pluck ’em out!
You gotta impress!
In my 20’s: shaving my legs for a date
In my 30’s: shaving my chin hairs and moustache for the dentist

2. I swear I’ve been doing it!
They’re not buying it.
I hope the dentist notices I’ve flossed 365 times yesterday.

3. Get out while you can.
There’s no turning back.
I just had my dental cleaning and as she was scraping my teeth my tongue accidentally licked her finger and now I need to find a new dentist in a new state under a new identity.

4. What’s that?
Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.
Dentist: Don’t eat or drink for…
Me: *already eating a snack before she finishes her sentence*— Jawbreaker (@sixfootcandy) November 12, 2021
5. It is weird!
Get a life!
Dentists are so obsessed with teeth. Little weird if you ask me

6. Never mind.
I wasn’t trying to talk or anything.
Dentist: *asks me a complex question about my life*
Me: Well-
Dentist: *shoves his hand inside my mouth*

7. They go straight to Hell.
You better believe it!
My 7-year-old asked if people still need to go to the dentist in Heaven so I told her the truth, dentists don’t go to Heaven.

8. Might as well tell the truth.
Doesn’t that feel better?
The dentist said I should floss more and unlike the lies and empty promises of every other year I bravely looked him in the eye and said “no”

9. I love that thing!
It’s like a comfort blanket.
Can I ask the dentist if I can wear the lead vest for the whole appointment?

10. Didn’t mean that…
You blew it!
Dentist: Are you flossing?
Me: Haha well I did the Nae Nae at a wedding a couple years back
Assistant, writing notes: Doesn’t floss, horribly out of touch with current trends

11. Gotta get to it first!
Outta my way, kid!
Schedule your dentist appointment early in the month so you can do the hidden picture in the Highlights magazine before some kid ruins it.
