<human>: I'm a little nervous about going to the dentist. How can I overcome my fears?
<bot>: One way to overcome your fears of visiting the dentist is to break it down into smaller, more manageable steps. Start by finding out as much information as you can about the procedure and what to expect. Make sure to ask questions to your dentist and take time to think about how you want to feel before, during, and after the visit. Additionally, practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing or mindfulness meditation in order to stay calm and composed. Lastly, make sure to bring something that will help you relax such as music, a book, or even a friend.
