Workflows, Walls, and What Matters Most in Dental Office Design 🏗️🛠️🪚

What separates a stressful buildout from a successful dental startup? In this episode of Dental Unscripted, Mike D’Inzio sits down with veteran dental contractor Steve Anderson of Denco Dental Construction to unpack the real factors that determine whether your office will work for you—or against you.

From optimizing clinical workflows to avoiding costly overengineering, Steve shares wisdom from building over 1,000 dental offices. This episode explores more than blueprints—it’s about vision, values, and the kind of planning that prevents regret.

🎓What You’ll Learn:

• Why workflow should drive design (not the other way around)
• The hidden costs of poor floor plans
• Design-Build vs. Hard Bid: Which is right for you?
• What most architects miss about dental spaces
• How COVID permanently changed dental office design
• The most important question every dentist must ask before building
