About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while waiting for his appointment, a regular noticed an odd humming sound coming from inside the dental office. It grew louder with each passing minute, like something mechanical was waking up deep within the building. Finally, the door opened slightly, revealing a tiny robotic arm waving hello. A delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Hey, Doc, what’s going on in there?’ The dentist emerged sheepishly, explaining that he’d been testing a new automated cleaning device. Everyone laughed, and soon enough, it became a local joke—every time someone heard a strange noise, they’d say, ‘Must be Dr. Sciantarelli fixing his talking toothbrush again!’

2. A curious note appeared taped to the door of D.B. Sciantarelli’s office one afternoon. ‘Free toothbrush with every cleaning,’ it read, in bold letters. A regular stopped by later that week and found not just a toothbrush but also a small bag filled with mint candies inside. A few days later, an excited delivery driver popped into the office, asking if he could get his free toothbrush too—after all, he delivered packages here daily. Dr. Sciantarelli laughed and said, 'Next time you bring us a package, I'll consider it!' The whole neighborhood now knows to stop by for their monthly cleanings.'

3. While sitting in the waiting room, a delivery driver overheard an unusual announcement: ‘Please be advised that our dental hygienist has been sighted wearing a very convincing vampire costume.’ The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw only other patients reading magazines or checking their phones. Smiling to himself, he thought, ‘Maybe I’m just hearing things.’ Later, when leaving, he noticed a neighbor nodding knowingly and whispering into his phone: “It’s definitely her—she always does this on Halloween!”

4. On a particularly foggy morning, as patients shuffled into Dr. Sciantarelli's office, someone remarked that the receptionist seemed unusually cheerful—almost giddy—for such an early hour. As it turned out, her husband had just delivered their first baby that night, and she was too excited to hide it! The whole office buzzed with congratulations for weeks.
