Operation Dental Invests In The Future Of Patient Care With Major Renovations Across Three Practices

Orlando, FL. — November 2026 — Operation Dental, a rapidly growing, Orlando-based, dentist-led, privately owned group practice, is investing in the continued growth of three of its practices with significant renovations and expansions underway at Blue Wave Dental, our Northport location, and Lofton Creek Dental.

These investments reflect Operation Dental’s commitment to expanding access to high-quality dental care and meeting growing patient demand. Each project adds treatment space, upgrading technology and equipment, and creates a modern environment designed around the evolving needs of the communities each practice serves.

“When our practices grow, we want the space around them to grow with them,” said Josh Reynolds, Director of Operations at Operation Dental. “These renovations are about looking ahead, creating more room for our teams, investing in better technology, and making sure the patient experience keeps getting better as demand grows. It’s exciting to see these practices evolve alongside the communities they serve.”

The recently completed renovations at Blue Wave Dental nearly doubled the practice’s footprint from 2,000 to 3,740 square feet. The expansion added 8 new dental operatories, bringing the total to 15 and significantly increasing the practice’s capacity to meet growing patient demand.

The renovation enhances both the patient and team experience with an expanded waiting area, redesigned front desk, refreshed interiors, and upgraded technology. The practice also features a larger sterilization area, additional equipment and storage, an upgraded autoclave, and improved IT infrastructure to support increased patient volume. The expanded space also creates opportunities to grow the dental team while continuing to deliver a high standard of care.

Our Northport practice is taking a different approach to expansion by finding new possibilities within its existing footprint.

Rather than adding square footage, the practice is strategically redesigning its current space to create three additional dental operatories, transforming space previously occupied by two offices and a closet. Once renovations are complete, the Northport practice will increase from 6 to 9 operatories, allowing the practice to accommodate more patients and support the future addition of another dental hygienist.

This renovation also includes a redesigned front desk for a more efficient check-in and check-out, refreshed interiors, and an additional autoclave to accommodate increased patient volume. Renovations are expected to be completed this month.

As renovations near completion at Blue Wave Dental and Northport, an even larger transformation is being planned for Lofton Creek Dental. The project will nearly double the practice area from approximately 2,250 to more than 4,000 square feet and increase the number of operatories from 7 to 15. The expansion will include refreshed interiors, a redesigned front desk, upgraded technology and sterilization equipment, and additional capacity to serve more patients and grow the dental team. Currently in the architectural and engineering phase, construction is expected to begin in 2027, with completion anticipated by the end of the year.

As renovations wrap up at Blue Wave Dental and our Northport location and plans move forward at Lofton Creek Dental, all three projects will increase the combined number of operatories from 20 to 39, creating greater capacity to serve growing patient demand. Through expanded treatment space, growing teams, and upgraded technology, the renovations reflect Operation Dental’s continued growth throughout Florida and its commitment to investing in its practices, teams, and the local communities they serve.

Como higienista, su atención se centraba, como es lógico, en los pacientes que se sentaban en su sillón y en las responsabilidades que figuraban en su agenda. Asumir el cargo de jefa le exigió ir más allá de su jornada diaria y tener en cuenta lo que todo el equipo de higiene necesitaba para tener éxito.
