My stepdaughter is addicted to the toothbrushes at her orthodontist (now we just have to get her to keep using her elastics!) Hi Simone That's right - and as we work in all areas of commercial interior design, it makes sense that we 'cross-pollenate' design solutions if we see a need. Thanks guys - great to hear from you!

That’s right – and as we work in all areas of commercial interior design, it makes sense that we ‘cross-pollenate’ design solutions if we see a need.

Thanks guys – great to hear from you!

What I notice is that my children just love buying things at the dentist. A new tooth brush from the dental surgery seems to have more credibility than one from the supermarket - even if they are the same! I think their logic is that if the dentist sells it than it must do a better job. I really don't care why it works but I love the fact that they are more motivated.

Whether in a hairdressers, beauty salon or dentist surgery, people appreciate access to goods promoted by experts. Hi Natasha,
