OFFICE SPACE Greenlee Dental by Jill Johnson Photos by Apryl Awbrey
Greenlee Dental, situated in the heart of Oklahoma City, is redefining the dental care experience for its patients by placing an unwavering focus on comfort and convenience. Dr. Kimberly Greenlee, who designed the space herself, says she wanted to create a home-like atmosphere for every guest. "Natural light was very important to me when selecting a building for us to move into," said Greenlee. "I believe having lots of windows helps create a better mood and keeps the energy high in our office." Greenlee Dental was the first tenant in the newly constructed Nicholas building, which is now also home to a bank and architecture firm. 10 journal | November/December 2023
The Greenlee Dental office has been open a little over a year in its new location, and patients have been sharing great feedback. "They love the openness of the lobby and shared spaces combined with the privacy of individual treatment rooms," said one team member. The crisp white walls, the artwork, and even the dental equipment itself, were all chosen for reducing stress and showcasing the office's cleanliness. "We constantly get comments on how clean the office is, and that is intentional on our part. You can see exactly how and where we sterilize our equipment, and I think patients appreciate the transparency," said Greenlee.
Upon entering Greenlee Dental, patients are greeted by a bright space, fresh flowers, and soothing nature sounds and images coming from the lobby's TV. A thoughtful refreshment station offering coffee, water, sparkling water, and juice is open for everyone's use, and a children's bookshelf and toys are nestled in a corner created just for them. The nearby patient bathrooms are stocked with complimentary dental care kits featuring a toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, and mouthwash.
