...Amangani defines itself further with an unlikely fusion of Asian-inspired elegance and rustic grandeur. Slate floors and minimalist decor lighten redwood-paneled rooms warmed by log fires. Rawhide-and-rattan chairs are paired with black terrazzo tables in the 65-seat restaurant, whose eclectic menu stretches from Peking duck to elk steak. A 35-m swimming pool and whirlpool accompany full spa facilities. Originality and exclusivity makes Amangani a big hit with celebrity guests, but Zecha insists its real draw is its nonflashy approach. "Just don't say it's Zen-like," he urges.

Since then, the company has opened nine more dental offices there, all with an identical high-gloss, minimalist look, and seven more are under construction in Florida and Massachusetts. In the U.S., Vital Dent plans to draw traffic by offering new patients free cleaning, X rays and dental exams. Then it hopes they will return for higher-margin procedures such as dental implants and orthodontics. The stores have longer...
