About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on McKinney Dental Wellness’ parking lot: an old, dusty suitcase left behind. Curious, he opened it and found… nothing but rows of tiny toothbrushes, each labeled with different flavors. As he inspected further, he discovered that every toothbrush had a unique flavor—from strawberry to licorice—and they were arranged alphabetically. The mystery deepened when another delivery person reported finding identical cases across town. It turned out that Dr. McKinney was conducting an unorthodox marketing campaign, distributing free toothbrushes to promote his dental wellness clinic. The neighborhood kids loved it, and soon everyone was talking about ‘Dr. McKinney’s Secret Flavor Hunt.’
2. One afternoon, a little girl visiting her grandmother pointed and giggled, ‘Grandma, why does that sign outside say “Dental Wellness” but it looks like a giant toothbrush?’ Her grandmother smiled and whispered, ‘Honey, McKinney Dental Wellness is owned by Dr. Brush Teeth.’ The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then asked, ‘So Grandma, does he brush his patients’ teeth too?’ Her grandma laughed, ‘No darling, just ours!’
3. One day during lunchtime, an employee overheard an unusual announcement over McKinney Dental Wellness' intercom: 'Attention patients—your teeth are talking!' Curious, everyone in the office gathered around the intercom. It turned out that a regular patient—a soft-spoken retiree—had accidentally left his hearing aid inside one of the dental chairs. As he chatted away with his grandchildren on the phone, his voice bounced off the chair’s metal surface and came across as if it were coming from his own mouth. The receptionist quickly informed the dentist, who calmly explained everything to the confused patient. Everyone had a good laugh, and the story became a friendly reminder never to forget your gadgets at the dentist's.
4. One night, a neighbor passing by McKinney Dental Wellness saw an odd sight through the window: a patient seemed to be talking to himself in the mirror, but everyone else inside appeared completely silent. Curious, the neighbor knocked on the door and asked what was going on. The receptionist smiled and explained that it was just Mr. Johnson, a regular who always talks to his reflection while brushing his teeth. Everyone at McKinney Dental Wellness knew him for it—said he had the whitest smile in town.
