JESSE BROWN VA MEDICAL CENTER
DENTAL CLINIC EXPANSION
Chicago, Illinois

The new clinic is comprised of three major components, General Dentistry, Oral Surgery and Dental Laboratory, expanding from 7,500 SF to 15,000 SF. General Dentistry includes eight operatories, two Hygienists, two Triage, and a Teaching unit of three operatories. Oral Surgery includes four Maxillofacial treatment bays, two Periodontal treatment bays, two Endodontal Treatment bays, and two Oral Surgery rooms. The Dental Laboratory increases in size to include separation between Model Making and Ceramics, a larger Plaster Room, and a new Shipping and Receiving area. Patient flow is a key element for not only patient positive experiences but also an increase in staff efficiencies.
