PepperPointe Partnerships, a doctor-led and doctor-controlled dental service organization (DSO), recently announced a new partnership with 11 orthodontic and pediatric dental practices, 15 doctor partners, and 24 office locations in Virginia. This marks the second group practice formed with the support of PepperPointe in 2022.

PepperPointe facilitates the self-consolidation of practices to preserve true doctor ownership, according to a news release. This alternative model preserves the legacy of doctor-owned practices and, in doing so, protects the continuity of patient care for generations.

David North, chief operating officer at PepperPointe Partnerships, said the company believes a critical aspect of a healthy, sustainable and vibrant practice is in the doctor's passion and commitment to their patients through direct practice ownership. 

"When a doctor truly owns their practice, they're more committed to their team and community,” he said in the news release. “And, when those committed doctor owners partner together with the support of PepperPointe, amazing synergies and growth opportunities are created.”

The collaboration brings PepperPointe’s number of offices to 136 with 150 doctors in Virginia, New York, and Kentucky. The facilities serve more than 300,000 patients.
