The fire was extensive on the first floor, causing heat damage. The second floor, used primarily for storage, was also damaged. 

Fire crews were dispatched at 11:47 p.m. and got the fire under control in an hour, the report said. 

There were no reported injuries and the cause of the fire is undetermined. 

The building seems to be repairable, but no dentistry will be conducted in the near future, the report said. 

At the Becker's 5th Annual Future of Dentistry Roundtable, taking place September 14-15 in Chicago, dental leaders and executives will gain insights into emerging technologies, practice growth strategies and the evolving landscape of dental care delivery, with a focus on innovation, patient experience and operational excellence.
