About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, when Academy Kids Dental usually quietened down, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: the receptionist’s chair seemed to move ever so slightly, as if someone were sitting there, even though no one had been scheduled for an appointment. Curious, he watched from afar, noticing that every now and then, a shadow would flicker behind the closed door of the empty waiting room. The next day, while delivering supplies, he decided to peek inside—and found only a dusty old teddy bear on the couch. Turned out, it was just a neighborhood kid playing tricks after hours.
2. At closing time one day, an Academy Kids Dental employee overheard a neighbor asking aloud: ‘Did anyone else notice that every night around here, the lights in the waiting room seem to turn on by themselves?’ Curious, the next evening the employee stayed late and watched from behind the blinds. Sure enough, just as the last patient left, the waiting-room lights flickered on—followed immediately by a small, furry shadow scurrying out through the door. Turned out, it was only the neighborhood raccoon, who had found a cozy spot inside during the day. The employee shook their head with a smile, thinking, 'Guess some critters are dental patients too!'
3. At nightfall, while Academy Kids Dental prepared for bedtime, a delivery driver heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Please return your flying tooth fairies to the reception area.’ Curious, he walked inside and found a small child sitting anxiously near the door. The kid looked up with big eyes and said, 'My mom forgot to bring back my flying tooth fairy!' The delivery driver smiled and replied, 'Next time she comes, tell her to leave it here.' As he left, he heard a faint voice from behind: 'Will you please take our flying tooth fairy home? We lost ours too...'
4. Late one afternoon, as Academy Kids Dental was closing its doors, a delivery driver found an unusual item in the parking lot—a tiny toothbrush with a note attached: ‘For the best little teeth in town.’ Curious, he brought it inside. The next morning, the receptionist noticed something odd—every patient had a brand-new toothbrush waiting for them. It turned out that a delivery driver’s kid had accidentally left his behind, and now everyone got a freebie! Everyone laughed, calling it Academy Kids Dental’s secret way of saying ‘thank you’.
