About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At nightfall, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Smith would often sit in his car outside River Ridge Dental. He’d turn on his headlights and leave them burning all through the night. One night, a delivery driver pulled up and asked if everything was okay. Turns out, Mr. Smith had fallen asleep, and his headlights were blinding everyone trying to park nearby. The whole town now jokes that River Ridge Dental has the brightest nighttime welcome sign—just not quite what they intended.
2. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar outside River Ridge Dental. A small dog kept circling around the parking lot, as if searching for something. Curious, he followed the little fellow and found him sniffing near an old fire hydrant. Turns out, it was just a neighborhood dog on a morning adventure—River Ridge Dental hadn’t even opened yet. The delivery guy chuckled, thinking how some days you deliver more than teeth.
3. At closing time, a dental assistant found herself locking up the office and noticed a strange note taped to the door: ‘Next patient arrives at midnight.’ Curious, she ignored it—and sure enough, around two o’clock that morning, she heard soft footsteps approaching the reception desk. Peeking around the corner, she saw only shadows until a familiar voice said, 'Good morning, Dr. Smith!' It was just the early-morning paperboy, delivering the local newspaper. The next day, everyone laughed when they learned he thought River Ridge Dental was his own personal shortcut home.
4. At dusk, a young dental hygienist named Sarah was packing her things after another long day. As she locked the door, she heard a faint whispers coming from inside one of the treatment rooms. Curious, she peeked inside and saw only shadows dancing on the wall. Suddenly, an old toothbrush appeared in mid-air, waving at her. Startled, Sarah laughed it off as a trick of the light. But when she turned around, the entire room was filled with hundreds of tiny toothpaste tubes, all singing ‘Happy Birthday’ in harmony. Shaking her head, she left, promising herself never to miss another dental appointment.
