Mile High Modern Dentistry

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Mile High Modern Dentistry, every morning begins with an announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that today’s special is a smile so bright it could light up Denver!’ And then, just as everyone relaxes into their seats, a regular would mutter under his breath, ‘I wonder if they mean mine.’ One day, a delivery driver walked in, complaining loudly about his latest run. By the time he sat down, the dentist calmly asked, 'Would you like your usual sedative?' The driver nodded, and soon enough, he was snoring softly while the dentist worked—oblivious to the fact that his truck had pulled right out of the parking lot.

2. At Mile High Modern Dentistry, every afternoon around three o’clock, the receptionist starts singing ‘Happy Birthday’ into the intercom. No one knows whose birthday it is—or even if anyone’s birthday is today. One day, a delivery driver came in complaining of a toothache. The receptionist, mid-song, suddenly asked him, ‘Are you Mr. March 15th?’ He looked confused and replied, ‘No, but I’ll take two of those!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the poor guy who thought he was just getting some aspirin.

3. At Mile High Modern Dentistry, every Thursday after closing time, the lights flicker on their own and the dental chairs rearrange themselves into strange patterns. One Thursday evening, a delivery driver noticed the chairs arranged like a miniature golf course. Thinking it was a prank, he tried out the holes—only to hear a delighted laugh from one of the empty rooms. Turns out, it was just an excited hygienist practicing her putting skills during her lunch break.

4. At Mile High Modern Dentistry, every Tuesday night, a strange package arrives anonymously in the mailroom. No one knows its contents until Dr. Smith opens it during his break. One week, Dr. Smith finds inside a cardboard cutout of a dancing toothbrush. He posts it on social media, and soon everyone in town is waiting for Tuesday deliveries. Turns out, a local marketing agency was having fun with their client’s dental practice. The next anonymous package contains a box of freshly baked cookies from a neighbor who heard about the whole thing.
