If you’re planning a dental startup, expanding your dental office, or just want to avoid costly construction mistakes, this episode is packed with must-know insights from someone who’s seen it all. Mike D’Inzio sits down with Steve Anderson, founder of Denco Dental Construction, to unpack what makes a dental practice functional, profitable, and built to last.

With over 1,000 dental office buildouts under his belt, Steve shares his most valuable lessons on floor plan layout, operatory design, workflow efficiency, mechanical systems, permitting pitfalls, and more.

  • How to design a dental practice that supports team productivity
  • The #1 mistake dentists make during construction (and how to avoid it)

  • What “Design-Build” really means and why it saves time and money
  • The truth about waiting room space and post-COVID patient flow
  • How smart design choices can increase production from Day One

Whether you're working with an architect, a general contractor, or going it alone—don’t make design decisions until you hear this.
