Berenstain Bears Visits the Dentist

Berenstain Bears Visits the Dentist Even though there are tons of books about visiting the dentist to choose from, this one is my favorite. I think it's because all Berenstain Bears books teach wonderful lessons. They also help children learn morals and manners. In this Berenstain Bears story, Sister has a loose tooth and Brother scares her by telling her that the dentist will yank it out. When Brother's tooth starts hurting because of a cavity, he becomes afraid of the dentist too, and dreads going to the dentist. After a quick trip to the dentist, Brother and Sister both see that they don't have to be afraid to go to the dentist.
