About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as a delivery driver pulled up outside Smokey Point Family Dentistry, he heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our dental hygienist has discovered a new species of microscopic toothbrush-eating bacteria.’ The delivery driver looked puzzled but decided to humor them. Minutes later, another voice crackled through: 'And for your information, this bacterium appears to prefer Colgate Total.' A neighbor passing by chuckled, thinking it was just another day in Smokey Point.

2. A little girl visiting her grandpa for the weekend pointed excitedly at something on the wall of Smokey Point Family Dentistry and whispered, ‘Grandpa, what’s that funny-looking tooth doing there?’ Grandpa leaned over and smiled, tapping the old, yellowed tooth with his finger. 'Oh, that's just an old molar from a regular,' he said nonchalantly. The little girl giggled, thinking it was quite normal until she noticed everyone else in the waiting room staring at them curiously.

3. While waiting for an appointment one afternoon, a regular noticed something peculiar happening in the parking lot. ‘Hey,’ he called out to another patient, ‘did you see that? The receptionist’s car just drove itself into the dentist’s office!’ The two men burst into laughter as they watched the receptionist emerge from her car, completely perplexed. She sheepishly waved back and explained it was just her new self-driving feature on test mode. Everyone had a good laugh, and soon enough, everyone forgot about it—except maybe once or twice when someone parked too close to the door.

4. While waiting for an appointment one morning, a regular found a mysterious package left on the dentist’s doorstep. Curious but cautious, he picked it up and noticed a note reading: ‘Open only if you love teeth.’ Carefully opening the envelope, our curious patient discovered inside a strange contraption—a tiny electric toothbrush with a handwritten message: 'For best results, use twice daily.' Turns out, it was just a prank from a friendly neighborhood dentist who wanted everyone to brush more often.
