The Bangor Fire Dept. says an elderly driver plowed into a dental office Wednesday afternoon.
It happened just before 2 p.m. at Creative Dental Solutions.
Fire fighters said the woman was pulling into the parking lot when she accidentally hit the gas instead of the brakes.
She crashed through the building and into the lobby.
No serious injuries were reported.
The dental office was closed for lunch, and no one was in that part of the building when it happened.
