Ayling & Associates Dental Practice

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an enthusiastic delivery driver arrived early with a box of unusual dental tools. As he unpacked them in the back room, strange whispers seemed to echo through the empty hallway. Curious, one of the dentists poked their head around the corner and saw only a mischievous-looking monkey playing with the instruments. It turned out that the delivery driver had accidentally ordered the wrong crate—an animal supply store’s shipment meant for a local zoo. The whole office spent the day trying to coax the little fellow into leaving, but eventually, a neighbor brought over some bananas, and everyone watched as the monkey happily scurried away.

2. A curious patient asked the receptionist one day: ‘Why does Dr. Ayling always seem so happy when I come in for my cleaning?’ The receptionist smiled knowingly and whispered, ‘Well, he’s just that kind of guy—when he sees you coming, he thinks, “Finally, someone who’ll sit still while I count to a hundred!”’ The whole office burst out laughing, including the poor adelphic dental assistant who’d overheard.

3. While waiting for her appointment, a bored teenager whispered to her friend: ‘I bet Dr. Ayling has a secret stash of candy somewhere in that office.’ Suddenly, an elderly gentleman walked in and overheard their banter. With a twinkle in his eye, he leaned closer and whispered back, 'Actually, I saw him sneaking cookies from the staff room last week!' The teenagers looked at each other, grinned, and decided right then and there never to miss an appointment again.

4. In the dead of night, a neighborhood watchman noticed something odd: a shadowy figure lurking outside the dimly lit Ayling & Associates Dental Practice. Curious, he followed the silhouette around back, where he found an old delivery driver dozing off in his truck with a half-eaten sandwich and a toothbrush sticking out of his mouth. Turns out, the poor guy had mixed up the dental practice with a nearby motel and was preparing for an unexpected overnight stay.
