Del Mar Family Dental Car & Orthodontics

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the office lights were off and everyone had gone home, an old man would appear in the parking lot near Del Mar Family Dental Car & Orthodontics. He’d push a shopping cart filled with strange objects—an old typewriter here, a rusty bicycle there—and mutter something about ‘the next generation’s smile.’ No one knew who he was or why he came, but whenever a child passed by, they’d stop dead in their tracks, pointing and whispering about the mysterious figure. One evening, a delivery driver noticed the old man pushing his cart towards the entrance. Curious, he slowed down and saw the man place a tiny toothbrush next to a dusty old teddy bear. The man smiled and whispered, 'For little ones, always.' Then, as if on cue, a neighborhood cat emerged from behind a bush, yawned, stretched, and walked right past them both without batting an eye.

2. In the early morning, before anyone arrived for work, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the dental clinic’s parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper with no return address. Curious, he opened it and found only a note reading: ‘Thanks for your patience today! Enjoy our little surprise.’ Inside was a bag of freshly baked cookies. Turns out, Del Mar had hired an anonymous baker to say thank you to their delivery drivers.

3. After hours, when the last patient had left and the receptionist switched off her computer, someone started leaving notes on the door. Handwritten in neat script, they read: ‘Your dental tools are calling you back.’ One night, a delivery driver noticed the note and decided to pull into the parking lot. He found himself staring at an old chair, winking at him from behind the reception desk. The next morning, the staff discovered he’d left his own number instead of the usual tip. Since then, everyone jokes that Del Mar’s dental chairs have a secret phonebook.

4. After hours, when the last patient had left and the receptionist switched off her computer, a strange noise started coming from the back room. A curious dental hygienist asked aloud: ‘Do you hear that?’ ‘Hmm,’ said the dentist, rubbing his chin. “It sounds like someone’s flossing with an electric saw.” They opened the door slowly—only to discover it was just the air conditioning unit, playing tricks on their ears. From then on, they installed a joke-of-the-day poster in the waiting area, making Del Mar Family Dental Car & Orthodontics the most amusing place for teeth care around.
