Does the Dentist scare you?

I wanted to go to the dentist today, but shan and cw discouraged me to.

In primary school, we were taught to visit the dentist every 6months. Now, it has been so many years since I get my teeth checked. I've got my mind set to visit a dental clinic today after meeting up with shan and cw.

I don't know why, but cw and shan doesn't seem to care about their teeth at all. They don't seem to be bothered about the "health" of their teeth. They don't see the need to do regular check ups for their teeth.
And there I am, worried about the condition of my teeth because I haven't been doing check ups for a very very very long time.
