According to a leading European commercial interior designer firm, businesses should think about how their customers want to feel when refurbishing their premises.
It has therefore been suggested that a mid to light pink would be an ideal colour for a dentists’ surgery, because the colour is not only ‘charming’ but it also has a ‘tranquilizing effect’ and can apparently help patients relax. If the theory is correct, then pink would be a great choice of colour for anxious patients visiting the dentist.
However, if the wrong type of pink is used then it could be quite a disaster! Deep, dark and hot pinks can reportedly increase the heart rate, respiration and brain wave activity! Furthermore, bright colours such as bright tones of pink and pure red are extremely stimulating and powerful, so dental practices should steer clear of these colours at all cost!
When a soothing affect is needed, a pink in a muted tone or a light green can be very successful.
