1. In the quiet town of Dentonville, something strange began happening at Thrive Dental & Orthodontics one morning. A little boy waiting for his orthodontist appointment suddenly started laughing uncontrollably as he pointed towards the ceiling. As everyone looked up, they saw nothing but a plain ceiling. The boy’s laughter only grew louder until an old poster of teeth finally fell off the wall and hit him on the head. With that, everyone burst out laughing, including the poor kid who had just wanted a simple orthodontic adjustment. Since then, Thrive Dental & Orthodontics has become known not just for their dental work, but also for occasional falling posters.

The whole office burst into laughter, including the delivery driver and even the receptionist who had just joined them for a coffee break.
