Burke and Liz Rich: Smile Magic Garland Grand Opening

On 1.1.11 at 11:00 a.m. the Smile Magic Garland office held a grand opening celebration complete with a catered lunch, speeches made by important people, tours for city officials and reports, and of course a ribbon cutting ceremony. Here are some photos of the Smile Magic Garland location a.k.a the place where Burke spends the majority of his waking hours.

Yes, you are reading that correctly....Once upon a time there lived a chipmunk named Charlie....

This is Charlie the Chipmunk and the patients follow him on a magical jungle adventure while they get their teeth worked on. Highly cheesy but very successful with the short crowd.

Welcome to the waiting room....So, the kids and parents get to hang out in a themed waiting room complete with a movie theater, game room, and jungle gym. Dentistry meets Disneyland...and it's working like a dream.

So, this little room has flat screens and gaming systems so the kiddies remain happy and entertained while they are waiting for their treatments....this kid is working some Toy Story game and laughing out loud...

...throughout the day they order pizza for the kids and families who are waiting for treatments...Snacks are provided free of charge for everyone inside this little stone box...

This kinda creepy guy holds the loot, the good, the mutha load and the kiddies get to pick a prize from his belly at the end of their treatments. Let's be honest, this was always the best part of going to the dentist.

So, the kids get to walk through this door when their names are called and leave the waiting room to begin their treatments.

This is Burke at his desk that is delicately decorated with butterflies. So, my husband is a VERY tall man and his desk is in the center of the front office. Since he will be moving throughout the practice during the day he had them build his desk to his standing height so he can just walk up to it...type a few things and walk away. Works great if you are 6'7 but if you are short-er his desk is pretty much at eye level...
