About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as patients were filing into Newbury Dental Associates, an unusual announcement crackled over the intercom: ‘Please be advised that our new dental chair is fully equipped with a built-in espresso machine.’ As the day progressed, more and more patients arrived, each eager for their caffeinated check-up. By lunchtime, the waiting room was filled with satisfied smiles—and empty cups. A delivery driver even asked if he could get his teeth cleaned while enjoying another espresso. The receptionist joked, 'Next time, we'll add a pastry dispenser!'
2. In the waiting room of Newbury Dental Associates, a small dog suddenly perked up and started barking wildly. Everyone looked around confused until they noticed: the receptionist’s chair had begun gently swaying on its own. A delivery driver, startled by the commotion, asked if everything was okay. The receptionist calmly replied that it was just her new office chair trying out for Cirque du Soleil. By the end of the day, everyone agreed that maybe Dr. Smith should consider hiring a canine masseuse instead—until the next time the chair decided to take a break.
3. While waiting for her appointment, a regular at Newbury Dental Associates overheard a peculiar conversation between two receptionists:
‘Did you hear?’ one whispered.
‘No,’ replied the other, leaning closer.
‘Apparently, our new cleaning machine talks!’ Curious, the regular asked if she could try it out. The next day, while getting her teeth cleaned, she heard a friendly voice say, ‘Good morning! Are those crumbs I smell? Better floss more often!’ Everyone in the waiting room burst into laughter, and from then on, whenever someone mentioned Newbury Dental Associates, they’d wink knowingly—because who wouldn’t want a chatty cleaning machine?
4. At night, when Newbury Dental Associates closed its doors, a strange humming sound would occasionally echo from within the empty building. One evening, a delivery driver passing by noticed the eerie hum and stopped to investigate. Inside, he found only an old radio playing softly in the reception area. As he turned it off, the humming ceased—and so did the mystery. The next day, everyone joked that maybe the radio was just trying to tell us something about our dental hygiene.
