Finding the right space for your dental practice goes beyond looks. We discuss the critical factors to assess during property tours, including ADA compliance, restroom requirements, and egress points. You’ll learn how space shape and layout impact operational efficiency, why early involvement from your design team prevents costly adjustments, and how building type — retail, medical office, or standalone — affects your budget and build. We also explore the trade-offs of first- vs. second-generation spaces and why location quality should never be sacrificed for a lower rent.
