About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the quiet neighborhood of Maplewood, something peculiar started happening outside Dr. Smith’s dental practice, New Image Dentistry & Orthodontics. Every afternoon, right after lunch, a small dog would appear from nowhere and frantically bark at the same spot on the sidewalk. No one could figure out why—until one day, a little girl pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘It’s waiting for its teeth!’ Soon enough, other animals joined in—a cat yowling for its braces, a squirrel chattering about aligners. Even an old parrot perched on a nearby branch, squawking, 'You’re next!' One day, while Dr. Smith was adjusting a patient's retainer, he heard a familiar yap. Turning around, he saw his own golden retriever, wagging happily with newly straightened pearly whites.
2. In a small town in Ohio, a regular noticed something odd while waiting for his appointment at New Image Dentistry & Orthodontics. Every morning, among the usual parking lot clutter, there appeared a mysterious box filled with tiny toothbrushes and floss samples. Curious, he approached it one day and found a note: ‘For your oral hygiene needs—delivered daily by an anonymous friend.’ Turns out, a local delivery driver had been dropping off these little packages as a secret way to promote good dental habits around town.
3. A curious note appeared on the reception desk one morning at New Image Dentistry & Orthodontics. It read simply: ‘Your smile will thank you later.’ No signature, no explanation—just a mysterious message that seemed to follow patients home. One day, an elderly gentleman walked in with a worried expression. After his treatment, he sheepishly admitted, ‘I kept thinking about that note… so I practiced smiling in front of the mirror!’ His newfound confidence made everyone laugh—and left them wondering if maybe the note was just good advice all along.
4. Have you ever seen anything like it? One day, a delivery driver pulled up to New Image Dentistry and asked the receptionist, ‘Why is there a giant toothbrush growing out back?’ The receptionist looked puzzled for a moment before breaking into laughter. 'Oh, that's just our new decor!' she replied. The delivery driver scratched his head and said, 'Well, it's certainly unique.' As he drove off, he waved goodbye to the giant toothbrush, wondering if he'd ever see another one quite like it.
