This study examines how the design of dental clinic environments affects work Environment, patient experience, and operational efficiency. The focus is on spatial layout, circulation, accessibility, and environmental factors in dental care settings. 

The study is based on a combination of methods, including a literature review, interviews with dental staff, a survey with patients, and on-site observations. Five dental clinics with varying conditions were analyzed. 

The results show that most patients perceive the clinics as functional, safe, and easy to navigate. However, some limitations were identified, particularly related to cramped spaces, noise levels, and orientation in certain areas. 

The interviews indicate that the original design of the clinic has a significant impact on daily operations. Clinics designed specifically for dental care demonstrate more efficient workflows, while older or converted facilities require adaptations in routines and working methods. 

The study also highlights the importance of environmental factors such as sound, light, and spatial organization for patient comfort and perceived safety. Clear layouts and well-designed environments contribute to reduced stress and improved patient experience. 

Based om the findings, key design principles are identified, including clear spatial organization, short distances between functions, good accessibility, and separation of flows.
