Design Ergonomics

A beautiful dental office is only part of the story.

When Dr. Dillingham set out to create his new practice, he envisioned a space that reflected the level of care his team delivers every day. Modern, welcoming, and intentionally designed.

Partnering on the office design and equipment planning, we helped bring that vision to life with a workspace that not only elevates the patient experience but supports the people who make it possible.

For Dr. Dillingham, this practice is more than a beautiful space. It's a place where exceptional dentistry, team wellbeing, and practice performance come together. Because when your team feels comfortable, supported, and proud of where they work, it shows in every patient interaction.

What if your office made dentistry easier, faster, and more productive without burning out your team?

At this hands-on event, you’ll see the clinical elements and real-world setups behind practices producing 3–4× the national average, and learn how to:
-Streamline sterilization & inventory
-Quickly turnaround treatment rooms
-Optimize office layout & workflows
-Reduce team stress & retain top talent
-Create a dental practice that you love!

Plus, experience a live operatory environment featuring Design Ergonomics chair and workstation solutions and discover how thoughtful treatment room design can improve productivity, reduce stress, and create a better experience for both teams and patients.

Will we see you there?

New scanner. New technology. But Same bottlenecks.

Here's the uncomfortable truth:
Most dental staffing problems aren't staffing problems.
They're efficiency problems disguised as staffing problems.

If your team is:
❌ Waiting on rooms
❌ Hunting for instruments
❌ Fighting workflow bottlenecks

Then faster technology won't fix the problem. It will just help you struggle faster.

Fix the workflow first. Then let technology multiply the results.

Efficiency isn't taught in a classroom... it happens chairside.

Clinical Trainer Lauren recently spent two days on-site with the incredible team at Port Side Dental, helping streamline workflows, standardize systems, and create a smoother day for everyone. 🙌

This hands-on training focuses on the details that make the biggest difference:
✔️ Sterilization flow
✔️ Lab case management
✔️ Treatment room setup
✔️ Team efficiency

The result? An average 55% increase in hourly production along with less stress, fewer interruptions, and more time focused on patient care, even during the busiest parts of the day.

👀 Stay tuned for some before-and-after transformations!

You've invested months designing and building your dream dental office.

But what happens after construction is complete?

Many dentists assume their team will "figure it out" once the doors open. The reality? Disorganized inventory, inconsistent setups, inefficient workflows, and lost production can undermine even the best-designed practice.

In our latest blog, Dr. Dillingham shares why bringing in Design Ergonomics' Efficiency Training Team was one of the smartest decisions he made before opening his new office.

Before you decide to skip efficiency training, read his story and see what's possible when your systems are as intentional as your office design.

Do We Really Need Efficiency Training for a New Dental Practice? Discover how clinical efficiency training can transform your new dental practice, ensuring optimal workflows and maximizing your investment from day one.

One more operatory won’t solve a broken system. 🦷

If your schedule is overflowing and patients are waiting weeks for treatment, adding “just one more op” may only be a temporary fix... not a growth strategy.

➡️ More rooms can make you busier…
➡️ But better systems make you more productive.

Before tearing down walls or expanding your footprint, ask:
✔️ Are your clinical systems efficient?
✔️ Are your treatment rooms universal?
✔️ Are you maximizing provider productivity?
✔️ Could improved workflows open more capacity than another operatory?

Growth should be intentional, not another Band-Aid on inefficiency.
