DESIGN & PLANNING

Anglian Dental was approached by Dr Michael Platten to collaborate on the creation of a brand-new dental practice. As a new client to Anglian Dental, Dr Platten was working alongside his business partner to bring their shared vision to life under the name Claris Dental.

The brief was clear: to create a high-quality, modern practice that would stand out while meeting a tight opening deadline. This new squat practice was designed to reflect Claris Dental’s commitment to clinical excellence, efficiency, and patient comfort, while making full use of Anglian Dental’s in-house expertise across design, planning, and installation.

BUILDING WORKS

From the outset, Anglian Dental worked closely with Dr Platten to understand his goals for the practice and translate them into a functional, future-proof design. Our specialist design team produced detailed layouts and technical drawings, carefully planning the workflow, treatment areas, and compliance requirements to ensure a smooth build process.

The practice is located on the first floor of an office building, positioned on the main road into Newmarket town centre. With a three-month timescale to opening, careful coordination and efficient project management were essential.

EQUIPMENT & CABINETRY

High-quality equipment and cabinetry were installed throughout the practice to support both performance and longevity. Treatment rooms were equipped with KaVo uniQa chair packages with Relaxline soft upholstery in Graphite, providing a sleek, modern finish and enhanced patient comfort. The Vatech OPG PaX-i Plus SP was chosen for its advanced imaging capabilities and diagnostic reliability. To ensure efficiency, compliance, and long-term reliability, the following premium decontamination equipment was installed: MELAG Careclave 618, MELAG Vacuklav 41 B+ Evolution, MELAG MELAtherm 10 Evolution DTB. Plant Equipment was selected for its proven reliability and performance: Cattani AC300Q oil-free compressor and Turbo Smart HP suction pump.
