Inspirations 2017 — 2018

by Dentsply Sirona Treatment Centers design. DSIGN aims to inspire you and show the wide variety in individual practice design. Dentists, designers, trade partners, trendset- ters, and many other experts assisted us in producing this issue. There are four trends that will mark the 2017/18 season: Honest Materials, Pure Shapes, Cheerful Patterns, and Embellished Elegance. We have included fascinating portraits that show how architecture, design, and workflow are linked to shape the image of the dental practice.

In addition to compelling stories we have also brought together valuable tips, useful facts, Dear readers, and photos for your enjoyment. Some invite you to enjoy nature, others fascinate with the treatment center is the heart of the purist or glamorous elegance, and others still practice and the focal point of the treatment use bright colors to spread a good mood.

This results in innovative solutions for more effective, faster, and safer dental treatment. Editorial We achieve this by listening carefully in close proximity to our customers and transparent communication is the basis of our design process. In in-depth discussions, we learn about their wishes and goals for the future and integrate them in our planning. This direct collaboration leads to product designs and coordinated solutions that we can then offer from a single source.

What is an important component of our success? We go below the surface, delve into the details, asking many questions. This gives rise to the functional, yet emotional designs from Dentsply Sirona Treatment Centers, which can be integrated all around the world into individual interior designs and treatment cultures. For years we have viewed it as our job to continuously research and discover global trends and specific local features. This allows us to guide dental practices into the digital future and give them professional support regarding design, workflow, and integration into the practice.

The fine oak panels on the walls create a particularly warm atmosphere. The waiting room and the diagnostic X-ray area have been designed to resemble an alpine hut, turning a trip to the dentist into a special experience. Dr. Riedl and his wife had the idea of creating a mountain landscape for patients following a skiing holiday just before they moved into the new practice building in 2013. “We are keen skiers and our hotel in the mountains gave us the idea of recreating this feeling of wellbeing for our patients”, explains Dr. Riedl. The mountains were an immediate source of rejuvenation and gave him the idea of bringing the magic of nature to his practice. The beauty of the mountains is evident throughout the practice; a central wall evocative of a rugged mountain face extends from the ground floor to the upper floors.

25 —— BAYSHORE DENTAL in Milwaukee is a practice in which the high-tech is integrated so seamlessly that it appears to be perfectly natural. This could be due to the sophisticated design concept of the planning archi- tects and the designer as well as the large number of creative ideas of the practice founder Dr. Gauri Mona Patel. The primary reason for the harmonious atmosphere of the practice is Dr. Patel’s overall approach. She has made her high-tech equipment the centerpiece of the design: “To be honest, we have oriented the design of the entire practice around the new treatment centers and our digital workflow concept. My fully equipped Teneo and Intego Pro treatment centers form the center point of my practice. They fulfill my high demands on efficiency, ergonomics and comfort for the practitioners and our patients, and that should also be seen. I would like my patients to trust in our work, and therefore I show and explain each of the steps that I carry out and the innovative devices which we work with.”

Dr. Patel works in six fully equipped treatment rooms covering 325 square meters, with Teneo

A warm and Intego Pro treatment centers.

Facts and data

Dr. Patel opened her approx. 325 square meter practice in 2013. Since then, she has been treating on average more than 5,000 active patients per year. At the moment, there are six fully equipped treatment rooms available, with two more treatment rooms coming in 2017. CEREC re­ storations are produced in a practice laboratory. The patients are very welcome to watch as their restorations are being milled. Dr. Patel is currently supported by a second practitioner, two dental hygienists, two assistants and two practice managers in reception. An additional “Doctor of Dental Science” along with a third dental hygienist are also soon to be employed.

What patients can expect

Bayshore Dental provides the complete range of dental treatments, from hygiene to full mouth rehabilitation, and that also includes implantology, endodontics, periodontology, pediatric dentistry, smaller oral and maxil-

Bayshore Dental is a model practice for the leading dental technologies – primarily equipped with innovations from Dentsply Sirona, including two Teneo and four Intego Pro treatment centers, CEREC, the digital combi- nation of CBCT and pan X-ray Orthophos XG 3D, Schick sensors, Sidexis software as well as straight and contra-angle handpieces.

What it looks like

Dr. Patel’s practice is a successful example of the synthesis of high-tech and nature. For work and life. The dentist has realized her vision of a practice with an inviting and reassuring ambience. Modern synthetic materials and glass provide a successful connection with natural objects made of grained wood. The surfaces are smooth, but they radiate warmth. With a reduced range of colors consisting of white and gray tones, a base set of colors that creates a “modern spa ambience” has been created. Fresh lime green color accents can be seen in the window frames and in the logo of the practice. It would be futile to search for cluttering or unsettling decorative elements in the Bayshore Dental practice.

What catches the eye

MY DENTAL PRACTICE IS LIKE Dr. Patel has placed in a targeted manner artistic objects that she has had produced according to her own ideas. “Designing the art was the most ful- filling task when designing my practice, as I could act really personally here,” Mies Van der Rohe’s she said. “The art here is not merely for a decorative purpose. Every object tells a story and has a meaning. They reflect aspects of my life that are Farnsworth House very valuable to me. In the reception area, reliefs made from transverse­ly arranged birch branches are hung in a way that they are assigned to a cor- responding counter-piece that is made from a plaster cast of the branches. The complete work is called “First Impressions”, a pun on the first im­ An Eames office chair pression that you get of the practice, and the impression that the dentist makes of the jaw. Another piece of art is the stainless steel sculpture that was manufactured with the CAD/CAM procedure and that represents an over-sized strand of dental floss. It is even more personal in Dr. Patel’s An Audi office. Here, there are two large reliefs of the fingerprints of her two daughters. Plywood sections manufactured in the CAD/CAM procedure represent the lines in their fingerprints. Dr. Patel calls these pieces “DNA”.

37 practice, the surgeon tends to address the referring colleagues as far as his range of treatments is concerned; however, he felt it important to design the space in a purist and minimalist way. To him, decadent or even pompous furnishings are off-putting for patients and make them feel uneasy. He states that, one time, a colleague even called his practice ‘austere’. Dr. Dr. Lier himself calls it timeless, thus additionally creating a connection to the old building. “This building has been here for more than 120 years and it is still beautiful, whereas a new building simply looks out-of-date after 20 to 30 years.

Dr. Apekian moved into the 260 qm practice with 7 treatment rooms in January 2017 after working in a different location for three years. She works alongside another practitioner, two receptionists, three dental hygienists and two assistants.

What patients can expect

The range of treatments at Midtown Dental include implantology, endo- dontics, periodontology, pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, aesthetic den- tistry and CAD/CAM-aided production of dental restorations.

What they can rely on

Dr. Apekian uses state-of-the-art dental equipment. The Teneo and Intego pro treatment centers from Dentsply Sirona and their intuitive user interfaces provide the dentist with an efficient workflow and ergo- nomic comfort. She also uses CEREC Omnicam and MCXL, as well as Orthophos SL 3D.

The practice The uses her hands both to create pictures with brilliant colors as well as radiant smiles for her patients. She considers both to be fulfilling activities that express her personality and develop a relationship with her patients. Dr. Apekian uses her art to create an atmosphere of modern design in her practice. The energetic colors of the oil paintings – red, yellow, blue and green – give the motifs from the natural, animal and material worlds a powerful radiance and presence. They are the personal statements of their creator and express not only cheerfulness and vitality,

TRENDS 2017 · 18 — CHEERFUL PATTERNS — PORTRAIT — JENNY APEKIAN JENNY — — PORTRAIT PATTERNS 2017 · 18 — CHEERFUL TRENDS but also a great sense of humor. Why these and not others

For Dr. Apekian, the most important aspect of designing her practice rooms was an efficient workflow, followed by aesthetics. As the artist also wanted to hang her pictures in the practice, she wanted the rooms to create a white background to set off her art. The white finish of the furniture combined with the muted brown and gray tones create a relaxed atmosphere and underscore the gallery-like character of the practice. With meticulous attention to detail, she has successfully com- bined design with the clinical ambience of the practice.

State of the art in Sacramento

It is not only the art that is modern, the dental treatment she provides is also state-of-the-art and she wants her patients to notice this. She is convinced that modern technical equipment provides a high standard of dental care to patients, increasing their confidence in the treatment.

Art and practice in the spotlight A sophisticated lighting concept sets Dr. Apekian’s pictures perfectly in “My practice scene. The ceiling and corridor lighting accentuates the tranquil gallery-­ like ambience of the practice. The treatment rooms all have large windows 60 that let in plenty of daylight. is me“ 61 said Dr. Apekian. “If I could put a shower and a bed in it, I would probably live there,” she exclaimed.

Good lighting should ideally be unobtrusive and glare-free. The color reproduction of light sources also plays an important role. Our experience is that, especially in relation to skin color, color reproduction is a decisive factor in well-being and comfort. This is achieved with our LEDs, for example, which have a color rendering index of 97. The light color itself is also decisive. In high latitudes, we feel particu­ larly comfortable in “warm” light when it is similar to candlelight. LED light with 2700K the expert view expert the generates this feel-good light.
