They met working as dentists, they grew together as professionals in different cities and, when they had already achieved their work goals, they wanted more.They are David Lara and Paloma Ochoa, general director and medical director of the dental clinic that bears their name, and with whom they wanted to humanize dentistry to turn the visit to the dentist into a pleasant experience, beyond patient satisfaction and the quality of health service.A whole life project in which they have managed to capture, according to their own statements, "our vision of Dentistry, our values ​​as professionals and our dreams as a family".A few months after the arrival of the virus that has changed our lives worldwide, Lara & Ochoa Dental Clinic was born in Logroño, specifically, at the end of 2019. Founded by a couple of dentists, David Lara and Paloma Ochoa, with the main objective of "offering their patients a unique health care experience", as both claim.With a different design from traditional medical consultations, this clinic is oriented towards comfort to be a welcoming space, and has technological equipment prepared to deal with all kinds of treatments for any patient profile.It is a consultation that consists of two cabinets and an operating room, and that stands out for having «a human team formed from friendship, giving added value to the Dentistry sector in La Rioja, and always betting on our three values: trust, patient success and innovation.A clinic that has all the dental specialties and, specifically, aimed at the treatment of patients with fear or phobia of the dentist, hence the personal commitment of its general director, Dr. David Lara, to implement from the year 2020 an Intravenous Conscious Sedation service in charge of a medical department of anesthesiology.LARA Y OCHOA, 2021 GACETA DENTAL CLINIC OF THE FUTURE AWARD, HAS MADE A HOLE BY OFFERING A SERVICE FOCUSED, IN ADDITION TO HUMAN THINGS, IN VERSATILITY TO TREAT ALL KINDS OF ORAL PATHOLOGIESAs Dr. Lara himself comments, «Lara & Ochoa knew, from the first moment, to evolve and transform all its protocols, directing them towards the prevention and protection of COVID-19, a pandemic that came to us a few months after opening the clinic, and that hindered, like the rest of my colleagues, the pace of dental care for patients.This, which was painful in part, prompted us to carry out a series of actions in human and economic resource management, and a strong commitment and investment in marketing to make our work philosophy reach everyone, with our motto, #anotherformofiraldentist”.Now, a little over two years after its opening, Lara & Ochoa has carved out a niche for itself in the city of Logroño offering "a different Odontology service, in terms of humane treatment, clinical care experience, and a Conscious Sedation service Intravenous, which is reaching many patients thanks to the spread of the message and word of mouth from patients”, he continues.Regarding the training field, at Lara & Ochoa they differentiate between two types of training: that received by their clinical team, individually and jointly;and the training that its director David Lara imparts through small collaborations (webinars and "training pills") with the companies LACER Laboratories and IEFS (Spanish Institute of Health Trainers).«Internally, our human team invests two days a month in training: at the administration and clinical management level: sales, pricing, coaching, financing and team management.And, at a medical level, through the development and monitoring of clinical treatment protocols: whitening protocol, surgery protocol, prosthetic laboratory protocol, conscious sedation protocol;and clinical action protocols: first visits and delivery of budgets and sales or customer journey map».Externally, the Lara & Ochoa team also invests in training, individually, that is, each of its doctors in their specialty: Paloma Ochoa in Orthodontics, Dental Aesthetics and Rehabilitation and David Lara in Surgery, Periodontics and Clinical Management. .For their part, the auxiliary and reception team have carried out clinic adaptation courses to COVID-19 since the last confinement, in addition to online CPR training in dental clinics, online Sales Techniques courses in Dental Clinics and, at information technology, training through the FER (Federation of Riojan Companies).Thanks to the investment made in its beginnings, Lara & Ochoa is a fully digitized clinic.«This investment begins with state-of-the-art software at the national level, where it has exhaustive control of the clinic at the level of waiting rooms, patient data, appointments and treatments, economic data..., providing facilities to the client with the modules acquired from the firm system integrated into the system", say those responsible.LARA Y OCHOA HAS A NETWORK ARCHITECTURE DESIGNED FOR THE USE OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES ASSOCIATED WITH MODERN DENTISTRYIn addition, “within the diagnostic tools we have one of the best 3D radiology systems on the market, concerned with low radiation to the patient and his positioning, highlighting the special programs for children.With this tool it is possible to give a diagnosis of the real situation of the patients, developing it with the software that it has available».Already in the cabinets, Drs.Lara and Ochoa highlight the investment in the comfort of patients by the acquired treatment units, "where Dentsply Sirona, with its German technology, cares about the comfort of both patients and clinic professionals, since this manufacturer values ​​ergonomics.Also noteworthy is the radiographic and prosthetic digitization, and having the latest technology in intraoral scanners, which makes it possible to abandon traditional record taking and capture 3D images of the mouth and the needs of clinical work, in such a way that this capture can be sent digitally to the laboratory, minimizing the possible errors that traditional systems have.”Likewise, the clinic invests in high security measures and, consequently, "in sterilization protocols with the following equipment: autoclave, water distillers, sealers, rotary disinfecting and lubricating machines and, for the disinfection and maintenance of prostheses, a protocol where the clinic's instruments go through all the phases it requires, fully complying with the established regulations».And it is that, as its founders explain, Drs.David Lara and Paloma Ochoa, «Lara & Ochoa has a network architecture designed for the use of new technologies associated with modern dentistry.Its design responds to the need to make use of the most avant-garde digital media when preparing the best clinical diagnoses.The system is centralized in a Proliant Ml110 server computer, with redundant systems, to ensure reliability and operation in the event of possible disasters.The team manages the patient database, as well as the antivirus console and automated local backups to the NAS.A reliable backup system is of vital importance to avoid data loss and to be able to implement disaster restores in the shortest possible time.”In addition, its computer equipment, «all of them 'all-in-one' models, integrating the CPU and the screen with HP Elite One 800 models, perfectly combine aesthetics with the necessary hardware power for the correct display of radiological images in 2D and 3D.Large 24” screens for the use of the management software, complemented by 43” high-definition screens for viewing the patient's radiological captures, guarantee the most perfect diagnosis.In addition, in two of the cabinets, as well as in the budget office, a wireless video connection system has been implemented with which to connect portable equipment, without the need for an HDMI cable, expanding the possibilities of mobility that this implies ».For their part, in the clinic office, Drs.Lara and Ochoa explain that the most powerful equipment in the practice is assembled when performing clinical studies with the highest resolution images."Equipped with powerful RX580 graphics, SSD drive and high-speed RAM, 3D images are handled smoothly."For its part, the reception, nerve center of the clinic, has the appropriate equipment for the needs of the patients, without losing functionalities in telephony and printing, to provide reliable and fast service in administrative tasks with patients.«High-speed ink printing, dataphone and IP telephony make the reception a dynamic and functional workplace.The entire wired network is enhanced by a wireless network to provide service to patients in the waiting room».It also has a dynamic and versatile digital signage system, adapted to the needs of both the room and the window, with educational messages and diverse information related to the world of Dentistry.“The entire network converges at a single point where the video surveillance camera recorder, the NAS, the Internet router and the various communications equipment, so important in the relationship with the patient in the 21st century clinic, are managed safely. .A reliable computer system to provide future service to today's clinic", they conclude.Both the facilities of the dental clinic and the team of professionals at Lara and Ochoa are prepared for any oral intervention.From aesthetic treatments to Surgery, through Orthodontics, Pediatric Dentistry or Dental Prostheses and aimed at treating patients with fear or phobia of the dentist.Hence the personal commitment of its director David Lara to implement, since last year 2020, an Intravenous Conscious Sedation service with the reinforcement of an anesthesiologist medical team.Intravenous sedation is a type of anesthesia in which patients will be relaxed without discomfort and will be able to collaborate during the procedure, which makes it easier for the dentist to carry out more treatment in the same visit.«One of its great advantages is the better quality of the postoperative period, with less pain, very controlled and a significant decrease in post-surgical edema, as the necessary medications are administered intravenously at the time.In addition, you do not remember the procedure or you do it vaguely.It is ideal for those who are averse and afraid of this type of procedure or simply prefer to carry out their treatment in the best possible way.The procedure is carried out by an anesthesiologist who, in coordination with the dentist, ensures that the best treatment is offered.The anesthesiologist, apart from performing conscious intravenous sedation, ensures and regulates the simple vital functions of the patient throughout the surgery, including breathing, heart rate and blood pressure”, states Dr. Lara.The full members of the team that give life to Lara & Ochoa Dental Clinic are: Paloma Ochoa (co-founder, orthodontist, endodontist, prosthodontist, expert in dental aesthetics and perioral infiltrates);Sara Noriega (orthodontist), Patricia Zapata (assistant and team coordinator), Cristina Francos (receptionist and expert in personalized attention and delivery and sale of budgets), Esperanza Martínez (dental hygienist and coordinator of clinical protocols) and David Lara (director and founder of Lara & Ochoa, specialist in Oral Surgery and Implantology, Periodontics, expert in Tissue Regeneration, Pharmacology and Degree in Management of Dental Clinics).Lara and Ochoa Dental ClinicWhere is?Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer – 26007 Logroño (La Rioja) Do you want to know
