About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while driving past Buchart + Wachs Orthodontics, a delivery driver noticed something unusual—a faint whistling sound coming from inside the building. It grew louder with each passing day, like someone was practicing their embouchure right next door. Finally, one evening, an annoyed neighbor knocked on the orthodontist’s door and asked if anyone needed braces for their reed pipe. The delivery driver, laughing, explained it was just the wind rustling through the old sign outside. Since then, whenever someone hears that mysterious whistle, they joke it must be the ghost of an ancient flute player haunting the place.
2. While waiting for an appointment one afternoon, a regular overheard two receptionists discussing strange noises coming from behind the orthodontic equipment. Curious, our regular decided to investigate and found that a delivery driver had accidentally left his lunchbox filled with metal spoons in the X-ray room. The receptionists were so relieved—it turned out those mysterious clinks and bangs were just silverware on the scanner.
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Buchart + Wachs Orthodontics and heard a peculiar humming sound coming from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw rows of braces glowing softly in the dark like tiny teeth-shaped lanterns. As he watched, a small light came on above each brace, and they began to move in time with soft music. The delivery driver was so mesmerized that he forgot why he’d come there in the first place. Finally, a voice from behind said, ‘Would you like to try our new LED-lit aligners?’ Turning around, he found himself face-to-face with an orthodontist wearing a big smile—and no pants.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Buchart + Wachs Orthodontics and found himself staring at a small shadowy figure darting between parked cars. Curious, he got out of his truck only to realize it was their own dog, clearly trying to escape its collar and tagging along on what seemed like a secret mission. As the delivery driver chuckled, he checked his watch—sure enough, it was past closing time. He decided to leave the dog inside for just a few minutes until the office reopened in the morning. The next day, everyone at Buchart + Wachs Orthodontics had a hearty laugh when they saw the note left by the grateful pet owner: ‘Sorry for the late visit, my pooch must’ve been trying to fix your braces!’
