About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning in the small town of Denton when a delivery driver pulled up to Dr. Smile’s dental clinic. The sun had barely risen over the hills, casting eerie shadows across the empty streets. As he approached the door, he heard a soft humming coming from inside—something that didn’t quite sound human. Curious, he opened the door just a crack—and found himself face-to-face with Dr. Smile, who was happily whistling while polishing his own teeth. ‘Morning!’ said the dentist cheerfully. ‘Just doing some early-morning hygiene routine.’ The delivery guy blinked several times before laughing and saying, “You’re certainly enthusiastic about your job!” The story became a local legend for years after, though nobody ever saw Dr. Smile without a big, friendly smile on their face.

2. It was an unusually quiet morning in the small town of Denton when a voice crackled over the dentist’s intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—please be advised that Dr. Smile is running late today due to an unexpected dental emergency.’ Soon enough, the entire town buzzed with speculation. Was it really an emergency? Or had good ol’ Dr. Smile just overslept again? Just then, the door swung open and there he stood—a toothpaste-stained lab coat, wild hair, and a sheepish smile. 'Sorry for the delay,' he said, waving a tube of Novocaine. 'I was helping a regular out with his wisdom teeth.' The waiting room erupted into laughter as everyone realized it must’ve been the delivery driver who’d accidentally knocked them loose.

3. It was an unusually quiet morning in the small town of Denton when a familiar hum started coming from Dr. Smile’s office. At first, it sounded like a distant buzzing, but soon everyone noticed—a low, rhythmic tone that seemed to vibrate through the ground. Soon enough, people realized the sound was actually coming from Dr. Smile’s drill—just cranked up to max volume. Turns out he’d accidentally left his stereo on while working late one night and never bothered turning it off. By lunchtime, everyone in Denton had a good laugh over coffee, and no one even minded missing their dental appointments that day.

4. It was an unusually quiet morning in the small town of Denton when a delivery driver pulled up to Dr. Smile’s dental clinic. Curious about the unusual package he’d received, he opened it on the parking lot and found… a life-sized cardboard cutout of a smiling patient, complete with a big toothy grin. Confused but amused, the delivery driver placed the cardboard cutout inside, thinking maybe it was some kind of promotional stunt. Later that day, while drilling teeth as usual, Dr. Smile noticed something peculiar—a tiny note stuck between two molars read: ‘Thanks for the smile!’ Turns out, it was just a friendly prank from a regular who appreciated his work.
