It was meant to have been after school but we got home and one thing led to another and I just forgot. Totally my fault. How much do they charge you?

It will vary, and if you apologise they may be feeling generous. The fee exists because dentists get paid for each patient they see. If you miss your appointment they miss out on a fee. Sometimes GPs wax lyrical about this type of system!

They can charge you for an office call, that being whatever your dentist normally charges for you just walking through his door. But...most doctors won't charge you, unless you make a habit of not showing up for appointments. I would call the dentists office as soon as possible, apologize for forgetting and make another appointment. I wouldn't mention how much you are going to be charged for missing the previous appointment. If they want to charge you, they will mention it.

Not all dentists charge for missed appointments. I know our orthodontist doesn't when my son misses an appointment.

That depends... Mine charges $25. a missed visit... But if you're REALLY good looking, & you use the old Navaho Indian trick of screaming & begging- he might let you off with a Filling... :)

happened to me before. And they didn't charge me anything. Also, if you have insurance, the insurance co pays your assigned dentist a fee already, regardless if you go or not.
