About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as patients were settling in for their appointments, an unfamiliar voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—your orthodontist is now accepting dental floss subscriptions!’ A delivery driver paused outside, confused until a friendly receptionist explained it was just another day at Hermosa Dental. Later that week, a neighbor stopped by with homemade cookies, thanking them for the free dental care and asking if they could subscribe too. The story spread like wildfire, but no one ever actually signed up.
2. A regular patient arrived early one day and noticed something unusual on the reception desk—a small envelope addressed simply to ‘The Dentist.’ Curious, he picked it up, only to discover inside a note reading: ‘Your new smile is here!’ Just then, a delivery driver arrived with a large box marked ‘Confidential – Do Not Open’. The curious patient watched as the receptionist carefully took the box, signed for it, and placed it next to the envelope. Later that afternoon, while everyone was busy, an old neighbor popped in for a quick check-up. As she left, she winked at the now-confused patient and whispered, ‘Don’t worry, sweetie—your teeth will be just fine!’
3. In the waiting room of Hermosa Dental & Orthodontics, a small child pointed excitedly at the ceiling. ‘Mommy,’ she whispered, ‘is that a bird?’ Her mother looked up and saw nothing but the usual dental lights, yet she could almost hear the soft flapping of wings. Finally, an older gentleman in the waiting room leaned over and whispered back, ‘No honey, those are just the orthodontists’ elbows bouncing off the ceiling.’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the little girl who giggled, ‘Oh!’
4. A little girl, holding her mother’s hand, peered curiously into the open door of Hermosa Dental & Orthodontics. Suddenly, she giggled and whispered, ‘Mommy, look! The sign outside is talking!’ The mother smiled, leaning closer to see for herself. Just then, a friendly voice from above said, 'Welcome to Hermosa Dental & Orthodontics—where your smile is our mission!' A delivery driver passing by chuckled and remarked, 'I guess that sign knows how to make an impression.'
