Going to the dentist can be stressful especially for children. One way to make the dental office appear more comfortable is to have an
interior designer decorate it to fit the needs of the children that will be coming into the office. Unfortunately most of the dental offices out there are designed for the equipment that needs to be used and for functionality instead of for the patients.
Dr. Maryam Mohammadi is a pediatric dentist in McLean, Virginia. She chose to hire an interior designer to do her 1,300 square foot dental office. From the moment patients and their parents walked into the office, they immediately found themselves in a very comfortable and inviting waiting area. This really helps alleviate the tension commonly associated with a visit to the dentist.
A Pain-Free Visit Without the AnaesthesiaThis is no traditional style of waiting room for a pediatric dental office by any means. Adults can relax with a cup of coffee or tea. Teenagers can use the computers to surf the Internet while they wait for their appointment. For those who enjoy watching TV, they will love the comfortable couch and the 50” plasma TV. There is also a playroom full of toys, books, tables, and chairs for the younger children to enjoy.
The colors for the dental office were carefully picked to give the entire waiting area and rooms where dental procedures are performed a very upbeat and fun atmosphere. Children of all ages should look forward to going to Dr. Mohammadi’s dental office because they will feel safe there. It is definitely a much more relaxed and happy environment than most other dental offices.
Children who have good experiences when they visit the dentist experience less anxiety as their next appointment approaches. This can lead to a life long habit of getting regular dental checks ups and care as needed. Parents love that their children are very willing to go to her dental office without a fight.
