Pediatric Dentistry

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the quiet town of Maplewood, there’s an old pediatric dentistry practice called Dr. Whitaker’s. One day, a regular noticed something peculiar: every time he parked near the clinic, his car radio would inexplicably turn on and start playing nursery rhymes. No one else seemed to notice, but it became such a consistent occurrence that he started bringing his young daughter along just to hear the songs. Finally, another patient—a delivery driver—walked out with a big smile, saying he’d heard ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ while waiting for his package. The next morning, when everyone gathered in surprise, the receptionist revealed she had been secretly pressing a button under her desk to play children’s tunes. Since then, Dr. Whitaker’s office has become known not only for its gentle dental care but also for its quirky musical ambiance.

2. In the small town of Willow Creek, a regular patient's mom whispered to her friend: ‘You won’t believe what happened last week—my kid came out saying “I’m never eating candy again!” after visiting Pediatric Dentistry.’ It turned out that during one routine cleaning session, the dentist had told the child a story about how sugar turns into evil monsters in your teeth if you eat too much candy. And apparently, it stuck! Even the local pizza delivery guy joked later that he was getting fewer orders from kids since then.

3. In a quaint neighborhood in Sunnyvale, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on the dentist’s parking lot one morning. Among the usual trash and discarded papers lay a brightly colored toy truck, seemingly left behind by an excited child. Curious, he picked it up and brought it inside. To his surprise, the dentist turned out to be a friendly fellow who thanked him with a box of sugary treats for kids. It seemed that every now and then, little patients would forget their toys after visits, creating a small but sweet tradition in the office.

4. At night, when the streets were empty, a delivery driver noticed that the lights inside Pediatric Dentistry never seemed to turn off. Curious, he approached the building and peered through the window. Inside, in the dim light, he saw only a small, smiling toothbrush dancing alone on a counter, its shadow playing across the walls. The next morning, everyone in town joked that maybe the toothbrush was just trying to keep the kids’ smiles bright even after hours.
