About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the dimly lit waiting room of Mass Ave Periodontics, a small boy looked up from his toy car and pointed excitedly. ‘Mommy,’ he whispered, ‘look at that funny sign!’ His mother glanced over and saw what appeared to be an old dental chart, but with teeth arranged in peculiar shapes and patterns. Curious, she leaned closer and giggled softly. 'Oh honey,' she said gently, 'that’s not a real tooth chart—it’s just an old poster of constellations.' The boy’s eyes widened as realization dawned, then he laughed too, pointing again: 'But Mommy, those stars look JUST like my dinosaurs!'

2. In the waiting room of Mass Ave Periodontics, an anxious poodle began frantically barking whenever the receptionist mentioned the word ‘scaling.’ Finally, a delivery driver arrived with a crate full of treats—apparently someone had mistakenly ordered chocolates for the entire staff. The anxious poodle calmed down instantly and started wagging its tail instead of barking. Everyone in the office shared a laugh, realizing that sometimes even dental clinics can surprise you with unexpected joy.

3. A neighborhood delivery driver pulled up to the Mass Ave Periodontics door with a frown. His truck's horn had started playing ‘Happy Birthday’ on repeat since breakfast, and he couldn’t figure out why. Finally, one of his neighbors walked by and asked what was wrong. With a sigh, the driver explained his predicament. The neighbor smiled knowingly and said, 'That’s because your truck is parked in front of Mass Ave Periodontics—they must be celebrating someone’s gum health!'

4. In the waiting room of Mass Ave Periodontics, a man absentmindedly asked his companion, ‘Do you think they sterilize these chairs after every patient?’ His friend shrugged and replied, ‘Who knows? Maybe that’s why they always ask us to rinse our mouths out with antiseptic before leaving.’ They both laughed, imagining rows upon rows of used dental chairs soaking in some giant vat of disinfectant somewhere deep within the building. A regular, sitting next to them, cleared his throat and said, “I heard they use the same water for coffee too.” Everyone burst into laughter, making it clear that Mass Ave Periodontics was more than just dentists—it was a place where even the waiting room fostered good-natured banter.
