Fifteen years of helping independent dental practices thrive through smarter purchasing, expert consulting, and a network that works for you.
BEST for Dentistry was founded in 2009 by a team of dental practice consultants who were frustrated watching independent practices lose ground to corporate dental service organizations (DSOs). They had the clinical excellence — what they lacked was the buying power and business infrastructure that DSOs take for granted.
We set out to close that gap. By aggregating the purchasing volume of hundreds of independent practices, we could negotiate the same — and in many cases better — pricing that the largest DSOs command. What started as a purchasing cooperative has evolved into a comprehensive business solutions platform serving over 500 practices nationwide.
Today, BEST for Dentistry is recognized as one of the most trusted group purchasing organizations in the dental industry, delivering measurable, verifiable savings and operational improvements to every member practice.
We negotiate, advocate, and support — providing independent dental practices with the benefits typically reserved for corporate dentistry, so every dentist can compete and flourish while maintaining their clinical authority and the patient relationships that make private practice worthwhile.
A dental industry where every independent practice has the tools and support to compete, grow, and deliver exceptional patient care — regardless of size. We envision a future where no practice leaves money on the table due to a lack of resources.
Independent dental practices represent the majority of dental offices in the United States, yet they face systemic disadvantages when it comes to purchasing, insurance negotiations, and business operations.
Corporate DSOs leverage massive purchasing volumes to secure prices that independent practices simply cannot match on their own. PPO networks use complex fee schedules that most practices don't have the time or expertise to optimize. And running a modern dental business requires capabilities — HR, compliance, marketing, technology — that go far beyond dental school training.
BEST for Dentistry exists to give independent practices everything a large DSO has — without sacrificing ownership, clinical autonomy, or the patient relationships that make private practice worthwhile.
