Some of us have a harder time at the dentist than others. When I was a kid, I was TERRIFIED of going. I’m talking about losing sleep for weeks at a time. Now…not so much.

But there’s a reason dentist offices have educational toys meant to give kids (and probably some adults) a little peace of mind. To make nervous patients relax and to help them realize that dental care is important.

These toys…missed the mark.

BECAUSE THEY’RE TERRIFYING AND THEY’LL HAUNT YOUR DREAMS.

I have a feeling a lot of kids are leaving the dentist with major emotional problems these days.
