The 2023 Incisal Edge Design Competition aims to reward creativity and innovation.
For the 10th consecutive year, we’ve invited a blue ribbon panel of judges, who will select the top designs, and provide their thoughts on each.
There are three categories for Existing Dental practices: New Construction, Repurposed and Specialty.
GENERAL CONTEST INSTRUCTIONS
Select one category and complete the corresponding nomination form. Then a juried panel of experts from the dental and architectural worlds will pick the most striking designs and practices, also taking into account the use of the space by reviewing the practice floorplan.
You may not enter an office in more than one category. Entries will be accepted through November 7, 2022.
The Incisal Edge Design Competition celebrates designs at three established dental practices in three different categories: 1. Specialty Practice, 2. New Construction, or 3. Repurposed Practice. Each winner will receive:
- a profile in Incisal Edge dental lifestyle magazine’s spring, 2023 issue
- an “Incisal Edge Design Competition Winner” seal to be used for marketing purposes
- bragging rights for eternity.
Enter your dental practice to win!
