I knew this was a dedicated<br />
group of professionals that<br />
would do what it took to<br />
make my plans come true.<br />
Make it fun!<br />
I wanted our office to be a fun place for children, and<br />
having decided that I wanted a pirate ship and a pirate<br />
themed play area for our young patients, I then had to<br />
determine how to make it happen. John suggested a<br />
company that they had used in the past, Studio Y<br />
Creations, to construct both areas. They turned out<br />
better than I had hoped and they've been a huge hit<br />
with the kids (and the parents too!)<br />

Comfort and efficient.<br />
All six of our operatories have been equipped with dual<br />
monitors. Cleankeys keyboards facilitate infection control<br />
and gyration mice allow the team to maintain eye contact<br />
with patients when discussing treatment options. I was<br />
so impressed with the comfort and performance of our<br />
A-dec 500 chairs in our treatment operatories that we<br />
added them to our hygiene ops.<br />
The patient experience in our operatories is enhanced<br />
with electric handpieces, digital radiography, intraoral<br />
photography and Caesy. Perhaps my best investment<br />
was digital x-rays. If our first image is less than ideal, for<br />
example missing an endodontic apex or a wisdom tooth<br />
periapical, we don't even have to remove the sensor from<br />
the patient's mouth– we just reposition it and take<br />
another shot–very efficient!<br />
