The Problem with Glass Doors in a Dental Office

We opened a new dental office and found that the doors to the waiting room are completely transparent. Patients in the dental chair feel self-conscious because anyone walking down the hallway can watch the treatment in progress. We’d like to address this issue discreetly so the clinic doesn’t look dark or “hospital-like.” Would a satin finish help blur the view for passersby while keeping the room bright? And please let us know if the surface can withstand daily disinfection with harsh solutions?

For medical offices, this is a basic comfort consideration—we addressed this issue at our clinic six months ago. The film works perfectly: it doesn’t reduce the light, but only blurred silhouettes are visible from the hallway. We ordered the film from www.tintfit.com/shop/frosted (following our colleagues’ advice, we chose the white Satin Frost), and were very satisfied with the service. The consultant explained proper care in detail and sent detailed installation instructions, so our technicians were able to install it without a single bubble. The surface easily withstands daily exposure to moisture. And what’s the glass area on your doors?
