A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes in the parking lot, he heard an odd clicking sound coming from inside the dental office. Curious but cautious, he peeked through the window and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed a faint whiff of freshly ground coffee mixed with something…unusual. The delivery driver leaned closer, thinking maybe it was just a malfunctioning timer or some kind of dental equipment. Suddenly, a small, sleepy voice piped up from behind him: 'Excuse me, are you here for my breakfast?' Turns out, someone had left a bag of donuts in the office fridge overnight. The end.

2. In the quiet town of Greensboro, Eastern Carolina Dental had a reputation for being more than just a dental practice—it was said that on particularly foggy nights, you could hear faint laughter coming from its basement.} One foggy night, an exhausted delivery driver pulled up to the office and heard the laughter too. Thinking it was just his imagination, he went inside… only to find himself standing in front of a friendly receptionist with a big smile. Turns out, the laughter was simply Eastern Carolina Dental’s way of welcoming everyone with a warm greeting.

3. At dawn, when most towns were still asleep, a delivery driver pulled up to Eastern Carolina Dental with a truckload of supplies. As he stepped out into the crisp early-morning air, he noticed something peculiar—all the lights were on inside. Curious, he tiptoed towards the door and peered through the window. Inside, an old dentist was diligently polishing his chair while humming a tune. Startled by the noise, the dentist turned around, waved cheerfully, then promptly fell off his stool laughing at the sight before him. ‘Morning!’ he called out. ‘Just testing my new dental chair,’ explained the delivery driver sheepishly. The two ended up spending the morning chatting over coffee and discussing dentistry over donuts.

4. In the small town of Rocky Mount, a delivery driver pulled up to Eastern Carolina Dental one afternoon. As he opened the van’s door, something glinted in the sun—a strange object wrapped in brown paper. Curious, the delivery driver unwrapped it and found… an old toothbrush? Everyone burst out laughing—turns out, it was just a forgotten item from a neighbor’s kid. The legend lives on as a friendly reminder that dentists sometimes get unusual deliveries.
