CATEGORY AUSTRALASIAN DENTIST 115 SURGERY DESIGN & FITOUTS contemporary Australian standards. And in the consultation room, highly skilled dentists engage in comprehensive discussions about treatment stages and plans, fostering trust and confidence in patients. Dr Docherty and Dr Christopher Ho’s journey with Medifit is not a new one; it’s a relationship built on trust and confidence. About Smiles Dental Practice marks Dr Ho’s third collaboration with Medifit with his Balmain Dental practice being completed by Medifit in 2002. Medifit’s Sam Koranis adds, “Customer relationships are a key part of Medifit’s success over the past 22 years and our journey with Dr Chris Ho is testament to the value we place on building partnerships that are bigger than any one project. Medifit has now built three stunning practices for Chris and we look forward to the next one. At About Smiles, Medifit were able to take a concept design sourced internationally and draw upon our design and construction experience to deliver a practical solution in an Australian dental context.” The tenancy was a difficult space and Medifit’s design team played a pivotal role in taking the Portuguese-inspired design solution and seamlessly integrating it into the contemporary Australian dental landscape. Their ability to transform a practice vision into stunning reality is a hallmark of Medifit project and the end result is nothing short of incredible. Medifit’s proficiency in managing complex projects, even within demanding site conditions, is a testament to their extensive experience and dedication to the dental industry. “To fit three surgeries, steri, CBCT, staff room, waiting and reception in just 70m2 was a challenge in itself. Adding to the difficulty, constraints on ceiling heights required intelligent design solutions to meet the National Construction Codes whilst satisfying the desired design aesthetic. The Medifit team internally referred to the project as The Tardis, a miracle of small space design.” In summary, Dr Docherty’s experience with Medifit has been nothing short of exemplary. Medifit’s deep involvement in the dental industry, combined with their wealth of experience, has made the journey predictable and reliable. The end result is a dental practice that not only meets but exceeds expectations—a stylish, chic, high-end sanctuary where dental excellence, patient comfort, and global design inspiration converge seamlessly in a contemporary Australian dental context. Dr Chris Ho adds, “A huge thanks goes to all of the staff at Medifit for their dedication in producing a great result. We appreciated that it was a difficult site but were confident that Sam Koranis and his team would relish the challenge and deliver the results we needed.” u Equipment (make and model numbers) Dental Units: Planmeca Compact iClassic V2 Dental Unit Autoclaves: B Futura 22 litre capacity with High Performance Vac Pump X-Ray: Morita Veraview iX Intra Oral Unit AND Morita X800 with Medium Field of View Compressor: Cattani AC300Q 68dB quite compressor for 3 to 4 operators Suction: Cattani Turbo SMART B CUBE Practice Software: Zavy 360
