About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning in Columbus when a delivery driver pulled up to Family 1st Dental of Columbus-West with a peculiar package. As he approached the door, the receptionist noticed something odd—an ominous humming sound coming from inside. Curious, she peered inside and saw only a small, grinning toothbrush waving hello. Turns out, it was just a new promotional item for kids’ hygiene week. The delivery driver laughed it off as a harmless prank, while everyone else shook their heads and smiled, thinking, ‘Only in Columbus.’

2. It was just another day at Family 1st Dental of Columbus—until a little boy named Max started coming in with a strange request every week. ‘Can I see Dr. Smith’s fish tank?’ he’d ask, eyes wide with curiosity. Finally, one day Dr. Smith decided to humor him and showed Max a picture of his aquatic friends on his phone. Max looked disappointed but then asked, 'Is that really a fish? It looks more like a toy!' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that maybe Max wasn't interested in fish after all—he just wanted some attention from Dr. Smith.

3. It was a typical weekday afternoon at Family 1st Dental of Columbus. A regular patient was waiting for his cleaning appointment when he noticed something unusual outside. ‘Hey,’ he said, pointing towards the window, ‘is that a squirrel trying to fit through the front door?’ The receptionist looked out and shook her head with a smile. 'Oh no,' she replied calmly, 'that’s not a squirrel—it's our new delivery driver trying to get in the wrong entrance again.' Everyone laughed as the delivery guy sheepishly waved from across the street.

4. A regular patient arrived early one morning, only to discover that the waiting room had been transformed into a miniature jungle. The receptionist calmly explained it was due to a new marketing campaign for ‘Nature’s Smile’ teeth-brushing sticks. Just as the patient was contemplating whether to brush his teeth with bananas or coconuts, a delivery driver walked in carrying a box labeled ‘Amazon Fresh.’ He casually asked if anyone needed any groceries while waiting. Turned out, the whole waiting area was stocked with fruits and nuts for an unconventional dental health promotion event.
