Setting up the right dental practice is about more than just having the latest equipment. It’s about creating a space that is efficient, comfortable, and welcoming for patients and staff. Whether you’re starting from scratch or refurbishing an existing surgery, Anglian Dental can help you supply, install, and build a practice that truly works for you.
Here’s what you need to think about when building your ideal dental practice.
Planning the Right Layout
Good planning is the foundation of any successful dental practice build. The layout should support the way you work, helping you move easily between tasks while maintaining high standards of hygiene and patient care.
Think about how many surgeries you need, where to position the decontamination room, and how patients will flow through reception and waiting areas. Storage, staff spaces, and plant rooms also need to be considered. A poor layout can slow you down and cause unnecessary stress.
Anglian Dental has years of experience in dental practice design and can guide you through the best options for your space. We work with you to create plans that follow HTM 01-05 and CQC guidelines, making sure your new practice meets all necessary standards, so you can focus on delivering excellent dentistry.
Choosing the Right Dental Equipment
Your dental equipment is a major investment. Choosing the right chairs, lights, cabinetry, and digital equipment can make a big difference to how your practice runs.
At Anglian Dental, we supply a wide range of dental equipment from trusted brands. Whether you’re looking for high-quality dental chairs, efficient suction systems, or the latest digital imaging solutions, we can help you choose what’s best for your needs. Our team understands what busy dental surgeries need, and we’re always happy to talk you through the options.
Once you’ve chosen your equipment, we don’t just leave you to it. Our trained engineers install everything for you, making sure it’s set up properly and ready to use, so you can consistently provide excellent care to your customers.
Building and Fitting Out Your Practice
Once the plans are in place and the equipment is chosen, it’s time to start the building work. This includes everything from electrical and plumbing work to partition walls, flooring, and decorating. It’s important to use a team that understands the specific needs of a dental practice.
Anglian Dental can manage the full build for you. We handle the supply, installation, and project management, making sure everything stays on track. Our team has worked on practices of all sizes, from single-surgery refurbishments to full new builds.
We also take care to minimise disruption where possible. If you’re working on a live site, we’ll schedule work carefully to avoid interrupting your day-to-day business. We’re here to help you create a space where your practice can thrive.
Meeting Health and Safety Standards
Dental practices must meet strict health and safety standards. From infection control to fire safety, everything must be properly planned and built to regulations.
Anglian Dental has deep knowledge of the standards dental surgeries must meet, including HTM 01-05 compliance and CQC requirements. We make sure that your decontamination rooms, ventilation systems, and waste management solutions are up to standard. Our focus on the details helps you pass inspections and give your patients and staff peace of mind.
Creating a Comfortable Space for Patients and Staff
A dental practice isn’t just a workplace — it’s also where patients form their first impressions. A calm, clean, and professional environment can make patients feel more at ease.
When you work with Anglian Dental, we help you choose finishes, furniture, and layouts that create a welcoming atmosphere. From the waiting room to the surgeries, we think about how every detail affects the experience of your patients and your team.
Practicality is important too. Our designs consider soundproofing, lighting, and easy-to-clean surfaces to create a working environment that supports your team every day. Ultimately, it’s all about creating the ultimate patient experience — one that keeps them coming back for years to come.
Support After the Build
Your relationship with Anglian Dental doesn’t end when the build is finished. We offer ongoing support and maintenance to keep your practice running smoothly. Our engineers are on hand for servicing and repairs, helping to prevent problems before they affect your business.
We also offer advice on upgrades and improvements, so your practice can grow and change as needed. With Anglian Dental, you have a partner who’s invested in the long-term success of your practice.
