Dental Office Construction Planning
Dental office constructions are sensitive projects that must be undertaken with great care. Whether you are doing a dental office construction or a simple dental office renovation, proper planning is required to achieve your goals. Owners need to make important decisions in the planning and construction phase of this business. After you get a trusted, experienced and highly specialized dental offices contractor, you need to come up with a good plan that will guide your contractor on how to undertake some specific activities, and where to install some specific equipment.
One of the most sensitive features in a dental office construction is plumbing. More specific is the fixing and installation of nitrous oxide stations. Nitrous oxide is one of the most critical components in present day dentistry. Most dentistry procedures need this component, and even if some patients don’t demand its use, it is very critical to have it installed. Plumbing in the delivery system of this important component of dentistry could make you dig deeper into your pockets up to around $15,000 to $20,000, over the normal construction costs of the dental office project.
Yes, it is a costly part of the build-out and you may wonder why it is very important. You may even have to ask yourself about the convenience of plumbing and whether it’s worth it but that is determined after you weigh both the advantages and disadvantages of it.
Long-range planning
Plumbing could prove extensively expensive but if you are going to have the office for a long period, plumbing the delivery of this component could prove economical in the long run. Nitrous oxide for plumbing is delivered by bigger tanks of G- and H- sizes hence carried in bulk while canisters are of E- size for ease of portability. If you buy in bulk, you receive more for less and you will be reducing the cost of going for more canisters. Tanks can also be interconnected to link them together so that when one tank empties, you don’t have to disconnect to relink it to a full tank. This is essential as it does not compromise the patient’s comfort.
Improves business
Having nitrous oxide installed in your dental office could improve your business. When patients understand that your office has nitrous oxide and procedures performed using it are pain-free and easy, they will be more willing to come back for more check-ups and elective dental procedures. The more the patients come means more appointments and consequently increases your incomes.
Look ahead with your dental office construction
For starting dental offices, it means there are fewer patient appointments and thus there is no need for so much nitrous oxide. But when you grow and the number of appointments increases, it means you need more nitrous oxide. Having the tanks in a central position and then having a plumbing network to rooms that involve procedures that use this component is the most efficient way.
