Design Your Office Right! with Harry Nelson

Dental buildouts can be out-of-control expensive.

Dansereau started in 1964, and offers quality, American-made dental equipment.

Look to simplify when purchasing dental chairs and delivery systems. The less that can break, the better. Also keep overhead costs in mind when choosing equipment.

Pay attention to space planning when doing a buildout. Cabinets especially tend to get overly complicated and cluttered.

Make sure your equipment vendors are involved in the process starting with blueprints. They may have valuable install suggestions that will help your office work smoother.

Many doctors use compressors that are larger than necessary. You may not need as much air, and a larger compressor will take up a lot more space.

Vacuums are often under-qualified and it’s very common to see mistakes made in vacuum system builds, they are often engineered wrong. Be very cautious about the engineering of the vacuum lines.

Make sure your contractor is licensed and qualified. Do your due diligence when choosing a construction partner. Make sure they have workers comp and liability.

Don’t take shortcuts, you’ll often regret them in the long run.
