New Costessey Dental Practice

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with a box of unusual size. As he approached the door, an old lady in the waiting room whispered to her companion: ‘I heard they found a new tooth fairy living here!’ As he opened the box, everyone saw nothing but a small, mischievous-looking squirrel darting around. The receptionist giggled and said, 'It seems our new tooth fairy is quite active!' A few minutes later, the squirrel calmly walked out through the open window, leaving behind only a note that read: "Sorry for the inconvenience. New premises require new methods."

2. A curious patient asked the receptionist one day: ‘Why does Dr. Costessey always greet us with such an odd smile?’ The receptionist smiled knowingly and whispered, ‘He’s not smiling; he’s just showing you his new gold tooth!’ The whole office burst into laughter, realizing that Dr. Costessey had replaced a broken filling with something far more noticeable.

3. One afternoon, an elderly gentleman entered the waiting room and whispered to no one in particular, ‘I bet they use magic toothpaste here.’ Soon enough, a young receptionist overheard him and giggled. She leaned closer and whispered back, 'Actually, sir, it's just regular old toothpaste—we're not even allowed to use magic ones!' The old man nodded wisely and left with a smile, muttering under his breath, 'Well, that's good to know...'

4. One night, as the last patient left, the receptionist overheard a voice whispering from the empty waiting room: 'They say if you stand here at midnight, Dr. Costessey will appear.' Curious, an old neighbor decided to try it one Halloween night. At exactly twelve, the door opened slowly, and out stepped Dr. Costessey—dressed in his old white coat, holding a clipboard with a big smile. ‘Just checking up on my patients,’ he said, then winked and disappeared back into thin air, leaving everyone laughing.
