A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as a delivery driver approached Broadgate Dental Laboratory, he heard an urgent announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our dental models are now on sale—just $50 each!’ Curious, the delivery driver rushed inside only to find empty shelves and confused dentists staring at price tags stuck to old molds. A nearby colleague shrugged, ‘Just another Monday at Broadgate.’

2. In the quiet neighborhood of Brooklyn, a young boy named Max often walked home from school past Broadgate Dental Laboratory. One afternoon, as he passed by, he stopped abruptly and pointed excitedly. ‘Mom!’ he called out, ‘Look at that funny sign on the window—it looks like teeth are dancing!’ His mom looked up curiously, then laughed when she saw it was just an old sign with mismatched teeth. From then on, whenever someone mentioned dentists, Max would say, 'They’re not scary—just look at those dancing teeth!' The neighbors started calling him 'Dental Max,' and every time they saw him walking by Broadgate, they'd wave and joke about his new nickname.

3. Early one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Broadgate Dental Laboratory. As he unloaded boxes, he noticed something odd: the lab’s clock seemed to be ticking backwards. Curious, he peered inside and saw an old gentleman adjusting dentures with a mischievous smile. ‘Ah,’ said the dentist, ‘just testing our time-traveling equipment for next week’s convention.’ The delivery driver blinked, then laughed. ‘Next time you’re late, maybe try driving forwards in time?’

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Broadgate Dental Laboratory. From inside, he thought he heard someone humming an old folk song. Curious, he peered through the window and saw no one. The humming grew louder, almost like it was coming from within the walls themselves. Suddenly, the lights flickered on, revealing a small, bearded man in a lab coat, busily working away. ‘Oh,’ he said, noticing the delivery driver for the first time. ‘Just testing some new dental instruments.’ The driver relaxed, laughing sheepishly. ‘Guess I’ll leave you to your humming then!’
