01The challenge
What we were handed
The practice had drawings from a designer who had never done a dental clinic — no chase for vacuum lines, and an imaging room on an exterior wall with no shielding allowance.
How the project ran
02The approach
How we built it
We redrew the mechanical layout around the operatory equipment schedule before a single stud went up, and relocated imaging to an interior wall where lead lining was straightforward and cheaper.
03The result
What it became
Every operatory serviced from a single accessible chase, imaging shielded and certified, and the practice opened with room to add two more chairs later.
