LIFE AFTER COVID-19

As we mention on our State of My Practice page (a great place to get started on the path to a secure future!), the clock is ticking. Now it's ticking louder and faster than ever. Many of the profound changes required to adapt to the post-coronavirus landscape are, frankly, probably beyond the reach of the average solo practice. 

Here's a list of considerations you may not have heard about:
Dental Office Design Structural Changes After Covid-19
  • Sit down, 4-handed dentistry and its ergonomics will be rethought.
  • Treatment rooms will be larger to accommodate additional environment-cleaning equipment.  There will be fewer treatment rooms.
  • Treatment room divider walls will be rounded, not flat, and angled at 45° to the corridor wall instead of 90°.
  • Cabinetry will be designed to be restocked from the corridor.
  • Ceilings will have filtering systems.
  • Floors will be grated with vacuum below.
  • Vacuum lines will need 45°elbows instead of 90°elbows for enhanced suction.
  • Compressor air will be replaced with compressed medical grade nitrogen.
As you can see, it's not just social distancing and PPEs and aerosol. For many years now, the business model of dentistry has been in a constant state of restructure: The restructuring to come will be as much physical as organizational, and will be costly. What was once a bleak outlook for the solo dental practice has become dire. We've been watching the business for over half a century, and have never seen anything like this.

There is hope.
     There are still plenty of potential buyers out there.
          There's still a way to secure your future while continuing to practice your life's work.
​               But the clock is ticking...

Whether you're ready to take action now or just want to talk some more about the possibilities, we're here. There's never any charge for a phone consultation. Please CONTACT US.
