  At a Glance - A Dentist's Dream After over 40 years practising general dentistry, Dr. Peter H. Andrews of Vancouver, BC Canada more than earned a relaxing retirement. But in 2009, even at the age of 71, he wasn't quite ready to take a break. In recent years, new technologies had made remarkably quick inroads into dentistry, making it an exciting time for practitioners. Dr. Andrews wasn't going to watch from the sidelines. He rented a new space in the same building and invested a million dollars to open Park Place Dental, one of the most advanced general dentistry practices in British Columbia. Park Place Dental is, in a way, Dr. Andrew's dream practice, his practice philosophy made possible through the latest in technologies--one that would only be complete with AG Neovo Displays. The Environment - A Dental Office of a Different Mold Dr. Andrews' practice philosophy is one of an open, relaxed atmosphere with patient-focused design. Rather than small enclosed cubicles, his primary workspaces are larger than standard size and have no enclosing walls, relying instead on cabinetry and built-in structures to create visual breaks. Since his new office is below ground level, he has 4x6 foot LED back-lit virtual "windows" displaying high resolution transparencies of Vancouver scenery. Combined with bright lighting, soft ivory-coloured walls and minimalist decor, the open plan design emphasises the office's free-flowing paths, creating a more relaxed atmosphere for patients and staff. Just a few years ago, however, this type of design would have been difficult to pull off while maintaining an efficient, well-run office. But with advances in technologies and industry practises, Dr. Andrews was able to pick equipment to suit how he wanted to work--not the other way around. The Opportunity - Dental Equipment on Display  Dr. Andrews practises a rear delivery system, which keeps intimidating-looking equipment and tools behind patients and out of their sightlines. However, he does believe patients should see the work he is doing. That's why he invested in advanced digital imaging equipment such as high resolution intraoral cameras to capture and display live images, and a state-of-the-art panoramic X-Ray System that enables nearly instantaneous scan results.But while the computers running the equipment and system could be safely stored away, the display solution needed to be much more robust. Dr. Andrews wanted two displays in each operatory: one mounted on the rear cabinet for staff viewing; and one mounted on a side wall to an 8-foot extendable arm for patient viewing. The displays would be exposed in the operatory among sharp-edged tools, curious patients and busy staff. Unfortunately, Dr. Andrews could not find a display with the right mix of features required in a professional dental office, the durability to last in an active working environment, and the stylish aesthetics to match the office's modern design. That is, until he learnt of AG Neovo DR-Series displays. Page 1 / 2 / Next |
