Learn how a group of dedicated dentists got together to create an innovative new approach to dental care.

Back in the 1980s, a group of dental professionals were concerned that not enough people were getting the care they needed. Some were unable to find the time in their hectic schedules to see the dentist; others simply couldn't afford the fees charged by some private practices.

Alarmed by this troubling trend, they decided to do something about it. They combined their talent, training and experience to establish a dental practice that was more affordable, more accessible, more responsive and more patient friendly.

Their innovative approach quickly caught on with a public searching for a more intelligent solution to their dental care needs. Before long, they had attracted a loyal patient base, opened additional offices and acquired a new name: DentalWorks.

What began as a desire on the part of a handful of dedicated dentists to make professional dental care available to more people has grown to 92 locations in 10 states and is now part of DentalCare Partners, one of the nation's largest privately owned dental services management companies.

How does this arrangement work to your advantage? While all of our practices are owned and operated by dentists, time-consuming administrative tasks like processing paperwork and paying bills are handled through a centralized support system. So our dentists spend less time taking care of business and more time taking care of you.

Pooling our resources also creates a vast reservoir of knowledge filled with the combined expertise of the 200-plus doctors in our network. They constantly consult with one another, sharing information and insights. And we provide continuing education to bring them up to speed on the latest developments in dental care.
