Beyond Smiles

Our place is tucked away in Basavanagar, specifically on 6th Cross in the 1st Stage area. If you know where the KFC is around here, we are very close to that. It is a residential street mostly, so it stays a bit quieter than the main road. The building number is 247. We have been here for a while now. The entrance has a few steps, and inside we have the dental chairs set up. It is a bit of a mix of old and new equipment. Sometimes the power goes out in the afternoon, but the generator kicks in eventually. We spend a lot of time cleaning tools and talking to people about their teeth. It isn't a fancy office with leather sofas. We have plastic chairs that are easy to wipe down. Most of our neighbors stop by if they have a toothache or just to say hello. The street outside has some trees, which is nice during the summer months. Working in Basavanagar feels like being part of a small village even though it is in the city. We open the shutters every morning and sweep the front area. Some days are very busy with back-to-back appointments, and other days we just sit and drink tea while waiting for the next person to walk in. We try to keep things organized, but sometimes the desk gets messy with files. That is just how it goes when you are busy.
