Accelerate Dental
At Accelerate Dental, we know that every dentist has two goals in mind: to take care of their patients and build a successful practice.
You want to give your patients an amazing experience, run your business efficiently, and create a solid financial foundation. And partnering with a dental partnership organization can help you get there.
We support you with a very different Dental Partnership Organization – we give dentists autonomy in their practices and we back it up with a 50/50 ownership model that is unheard of in traditional DSOs. In addition, we let all our dentists directly invest side by side with us as joint investors in Accelerate Dental TopCo. This ensures alignment of incentives, policies, and cultures to be dentist supportive. The Accelerate business model preserves traditional dentistry with high financial returns for dentists and high-quality care for patients.
