We built a dental startup: total cost and what it really takes
How long does it take to launch a dental clinic? What steps are essential? And how much does it cost to get it all off the ground?
We answer all of that through the real story of launching Kanopi Kids, a modern pediatric dental startup that went through way more than anyone expected.
This journey was anything but smooth
The office was broken into. Twice.
Expensive equipment was set on fire.
Construction costs kept climbing.
And at one point, it looked like the grand opening and a major commercial shoot would all fall apart.
But we didn’t stop.
Creative direction from day one
As growth partners, Future Practice was involved from the very beginning. We helped guide the entire launch, including:
- Naming and brand strategy
- Logo and mascot creation (Chief Comfort Officer Kai)
- Office design and architecture
- Signage, print, and exterior visual systems
- Patient experience design
- Launch planning and commercial production
Every piece of this startup was intentional. Every decision was made with long-term growth in mind.
