Acocks Green Dental Practice

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does Dr. Acock always greet patients with a smile and a toothpick?’ With a twinkle in his eye, Dr. Acock replied, 'Because every patient is a diamond in the rough, and I like to polish them up!' The delivery driver laughed heartily, realizing that maybe life at Acocks Green was more than just teeth whitening.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver parked outside and heard an eerie humming coming from inside the dental practice. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw only shadows moving around in the dim light. Suddenly, a voice called out from within: ‘Next patient!’ The delivery driver jumped back, startled, then realized it was just a recording. Relieved, he drove off—but not before hearing someone whistling cheerfully behind him. Turns out, Acocks Green Dental Practice had an automated receptionist with a surprisingly good singing voice.

3. One day, while stocking shelves after hours, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the dental practice’s supply closet—a strange, unmarked box labeled only with the words ‘Emergency Fillings.’ Curious, he opened it and found nothing but tiny plastic teeth of every shape and size. Turns out, they were emergency fillings for dentists’ kids who lost their baby teeth during soccer matches or birthday parties. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh over tea.

4. In the quiet afternoon, a delivery driver stopped for a moment near the dental practice. Glancing around, he spotted something unusual—a strange object nestled among the trash cans. Curious, he bent down and picked it up—it was an old, rusty keyring shaped like a toothbrush. Smiling to himself, he thought maybe someone from Acocks Green had lost their sense of humor rather than their keys. Back in his truck, he showed it to a nearby colleague who laughed out loud: ‘Classic! They must’ve left their good mood here too!’
