dentist visit

Cavity check appointment

A dentist visit is a scheduled appointment for dental examination, cleaning, or treatment.

The phrase typically refers to routine checkups: I have a dentist visit next Tuesday.

For many, dentist visits carry associations of anxiety or dread, making them a common metaphor for unpleasant obligations: I'd rather go to the dentist than sit through another meeting like that.
