I'm genuinely unsure whether this is a brilliant way to make kids unafraid of going to the dentist or whether it could unintentionally foster a "Hey kids - cavities are FUN!" message. Whatever the case, it gives me the willies and Santa won't be spending his hard-earned cash on one for this household this Christmas.

My 6 year old daughter has been saying, since she's 3, that she wants to be a dentist when she grows up. Every dentist visit takes forever because she asks questions about everything. Our dentist has even had her help with big brother's cleanings! When she saw this toy she was absolutetly thrilled, now she can pretend to be a real dentist and she practices her "dentist vocabulary" and bed side manners. I highly recommend this toy for older children, like my daughter, who have any medical inclination. Plus, it's helped us teach them how exactly we need to brush back molars.

Aww, how adorable. There's even a drill. Seriously, this is actually a good way of conditioning kids to feel comfortable in the office.

This are offered at Kmart this Christmas season. I just saw them a couple of days ago. The box said "KMart Exclusive" so this is the only place it's still available. Good Luck!
