1. A delivery driver pulled up outside Shallowford Smiles one afternoon and exclaimed, ‘I thought dentists only fixed teeth!’ Since then, locals say they’ve seen strange lights coming from the office after hours. One night, a neighbor noticed a faint glow through the windows and peered inside curiously. To his surprise, he saw an old dentist chair dancing to the rhythm of classical music. When asked about it later, Dr. Smith simply smiled and said, 'It helps relax my patients.'
2. A delivery driver pulled up outside Shallowford Smiles one morning, frowning as he inspected his truck's rearview mirror. 'Why does everything I deliver here end up looking like it just got its teeth cleaned?' As he approached the door, a friendly receptionist smiled warmly and said, ‘Welcome! We’ve been expecting you.’ The delivery man blinked in confusion until he noticed her perfectly white smile. Turning around, he saw that even his own reflection had sparkling new pearly whites. Shaking his head, he muttered, ‘Guess I’ll never know what goes on behind those doors,’ and drove off, leaving behind only a slightly confused but very happy neighborhood.

One night, a delivery driver pulled up outside and wondered aloud, 'Do they keep all those lights on for the patients or is there something else going on inside?' A few nights later, an anxious neighbor peeked through their curtains and whispered, ‘I thought I saw a toothbrush dancing!’ Turns out it was just the reflection of the neon sign playing tricks in the wind. Since then, everyone’s been more careful when driving by—especially during Halloween.
