✨ Celebrating the Grand Opening of VIOS Dental ✨

A huge congratulations to Dr. Cody Kriegel and his team on bringing Vios Dental to life—an innovative, design-forward practice that is truly redefining the patient experience. At VIOS Dental, the focus lies deeply in the oral-systemic connection, utilizing the safest and most biocompatible materials, and embracing the science of healing for whole-person health.

To support this vision, A-dec Inc. was the clear choice for its proven quality, functionality, and ability to accommodate a unique, modern design. The Dentsply Sironatechnology ecosystem was seamlessly integrated to optimize imaging, CAD/CAM, and digital workflows—enhancing efficiency, patient education, and overall functionality.

A huge thank you to Aaron Klosterman and Tiffany Meeker for their tireless effort on the construction side to make the VIOS dream a reality! Special recognition also goes to Cody’s wife, Allison who was a driving force behind the stunning creative vision that makes this practice truly one of a kind.

Blake Harms, myself, and the Henry Schein Dental team are so grateful for the opportunity to partner with amazing clients on unique projects like this. It’s been an honor to support this incredible project and help bring this vision to life.

Stepping into VIOS Dental feels like entering a space unlike any other in the area—thoughtfully designed, welcoming, and intentionally crafted for comfort and care. Congratulations again to Dr. Kriegel and his team on this amazing achievement!

We had an incredible weekend with clients at the A-dec Inc. headquarters in Newberg, Oregon. Blake Harms and I are always blown away by the world-class generosity and hospitality of Bill Adams and the A-dec team. I can't stress enough how a VIP customer trip to a manufacturer's plant and HQ brings unparalleled value to the new build or remodel process!

Visiting the plant offers a firsthand look at the precision and craftsmanship that goes into every piece of dental equipment and furniture. It’s one thing to see products on a website or picture, but it's a game changer to witness it in person.

This immersive experience allows clients to:

Tour the Plant: Gain confidence by seeing the manufacturing process and attention to detail behind the scenes.

Strategically Critique Floorplans: Collaborate with industry experts to ensure every square foot supports efficiency and patient care.

Demonstrate Equipment & Furniture: Test the latest innovations to find the best fit for their vision, ergonomic, and practice needs.

Focused Planning Sessions: Dive deep into project goals and map out the final touches for a successful outcome.

and FUN!!

These trips go beyond products; they’re about building partnerships, relationships, and setting clients up for success with a facility that’s designed to support excellence in care.

Thanks to Horton Family Dental for sacrificing the time and energy to invest in your practice.
