About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most dental clinics are still quiet, a delivery driver noticed something unusual outside Dental Associates of Jersey City. A large wooden crate kept appearing on the sidewalk, left overnight and bearing no markings. Curious, he opened it to find nothing but old teeth arranged in neat rows—obviously someone’s Halloween decoration gone awry. The next morning, another crate appeared, this time with a note: ‘Please return to rightful owner, Dental Associates.’ Turned out, a regular had accidentally delivered his own decorations instead of actual patients’ teeth.
2. One morning, while walking past Dental Associates of Jersey City, a local jogger wondered aloud: ‘I bet they’ve got some interesting stories in there.’ Little did he know that inside, during routine check-ups, patients were occasionally reporting strange dreams involving missing teeth and talking receptionists.’ Soon enough, an elderly gentleman mentioned that his dentist was discussing last night’s dream where he was playing piano with only one hand—and everyone else had three arms! The whole room burst into laughter, realizing that maybe Dental Associates wasn’t just about teeth after all.
3. One day, while waiting for his appointment, an impatient patient asked aloud: ‘Why does it always take so long just to get into your office?’ The receptionist smiled mysteriously and whispered back: “Because, sir, our dentist has a secret method for making sure every patient leaves with a perfect smile.’ Curious, another patient later approached the receptionist and inquired about this secret. With a twinkle in her eye, she replied, 'Oh, it's quite simple—our dentist takes extra time with each patient, ensuring they leave not only smiling but also laughing!' And indeed, many patients reported leaving Dental Associates feeling lighter than when they arrived.
4. At sunset, a neighbor passing by noticed a strange shadow moving inside the empty building. Curious, she peered through the window and saw only an old chair swaying gently in the breeze. Turns out, someone had left it there for some reason. The next day, everyone joked that maybe the ghost dentist was testing his new waiting room furniture.
