About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A little girl named Emma walked into Dinka Dental one day, holding her teddy bear tightly. As soon as she saw Dr. Dinka’s smiling face behind the counter, her bear started growling and pointing towards him. The receptionist laughed it off, but ever since then, every child who entered seemed to sense something unusual about that place. One day, an old lady came in for a check-up. While Dr. Dinka was examining her teeth, he suddenly asked, ‘Ma’am, do you mind if I ask your age?’ She replied, grinning mischievously, ‘I’m 89, dear.’ He paused, then said calmly, ‘That explains why I’ve never seen you before!’ Everyone burst out laughing.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to Dinka Dental late one afternoon, frowning as he struggled with an oversized box. Suddenly, the box started making strange noises—like someone whispering inside. The delivery driver leaned closer, and from within the box came a soft giggle. Turns out it was just a happy patient who’d forgotten her sense of humor wasn’t welcome in the waiting room.

3. While waiting for his cleaning appointment, a regular at Dinka Dental overheard an unusual conversation between two staff members. "Did you hear?", whispered one, "The new drill sounds like it's humming Russian folk songs!" The other nodded knowingly, smiling. "Strange but not surprising—after all, it is made in Ukraine.” Curious, our regular asked around and found out that the delivery driver who brought the new drill was humming those same tunes on his way home. Turns out, he learned them from his grandmother during long winter evenings.

4. While waiting in Dinka Dental’s reception area, a neighbor noticed something peculiar—a small dog kept staring intently at the ceiling, its tail wagging furiously. Curious, she approached and saw an old poster for Soviet-era candies stuck there. The dog, it turned out, was simply trying to lick off the colorful pictures. Everyone had a good laugh, including the vet who said it was his ‘secret decoration’ to entertain patients.
