About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Oak Ridge Dental and noticed something odd: the sign on the building seemed to be winking at him. Curious, he parked his truck and walked towards the office. The moment he got closer, the sign stopped blinking and went completely still. Inside, an old receptionist smiled warmly and said, ‘Morning! That’s just our new LED sign—we programmed it to blink randomly.’ The delivery driver left, shaking his head but grinning, thinking that maybe some places really do have signs with personalities.
2. One day, a curious neighbor asked aloud: ‘Why does Dr. Smith always wave to the same car in the parking lot of Oak Ridge Dental?’ It turned out that every morning, a delivery driver arrived early with fresh coffee for Dr. Smith. The two had struck up an unlikely friendship over shared jokes and banter during those quiet moments before patients arrived. So whenever anyone saw them greeting each other, they thought it was just another quirky town habit.
3. While waiting for her appointment, a regular muttered under her breath: ‘I wonder if Dr. Smith knows how to tell time backwards?’ Finally called out another patient, ‘Hey, Doc! Can you fix my cavity with just one look?’ Dr. Smith smiled and replied, ‘Of course I can—you’ve had it since last Tuesday.’ The whole waiting room burst into laughter.
4. While sitting in the waiting room, an anxious patient doodled on the magazine cover, creating a portrait of Dr. Smith that kept getting more and more peculiar with each stroke. Finally, when she was done, it looked like something between Dr. Smith and Bigfoot. The receptionist burst out laughing upon seeing it, but before anyone could react, the door opened and a delivery driver asked for ‘the monster from the waiting room.’
