Espire Dental, a fast-growing, elite cosmetic and multi-specialty group practice founded by dentists, is pleased to announce its partnership and acquisition of Sauvage PLLC (Sauvage Dentistry), a five-practice dental group located in Seattle, WA.
Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Denver, Colorado, Espire Dental continues its mission to radically elevate the dental experience for providers and team members. Its growing footprint of 39 practices spans Colorado, California, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Texas, and now Washington. The company actively seeks high-quality dentists and practice teams that share its commitment to elevated patient experiences, clinical care, and employee fulfillment. The addition of this group of dental practices in the Pacific Northwest strengthens Espire’s market position by expanding into another large metropolitan area, bringing excellent dental care and cosmetic dentistry options to patients in Seattle and surrounding areas.
Tim Hill, CEO of Espire Dental, highlights the strong cultural alignment between Espire and Dr. Paul Sauvage.
“Dr. Sauvage, along with his clinical providers and support teams, has long been known for delivering outstanding dental care to the growing downtown Seattle and Redmond communities,” said Hill. “Espire is proud to continue this family legacy and further enhance the exceptional care provided by Dr. Sauvage and his dedicated team. Our shared values make this partnership a perfect fit. We are honored to be the partner of choice for premier private-practice dentists who typically don’t join DSO groups, and we are thrilled that Dr. Sauvage selected us as his partner.”
Sauvage Dentistry has been providing excellent patient care in the Seattle community for over 20 years.
Dr. Sauvage said, “When I met the team at Espire, I knew they were the best fit for our practices, providers, and team members. I am thrilled to partner with Espire to help take us to the next stage of growth.”
Espire Dental offers its practices best-in-class business support services, including practice operations leadership, clinical training, human resources, marketing, insurance cycle management, and accounting. This comprehensive support enables Espire’s dentists and teams to focus on what matters most—providing exceptional patient care, nurturing patient relationships, and leading their dedicated teams. According to Tim Hill, CEO of Espire Dental, the company’s unique blend of business support, elevated clinical care, and hospitality-driven dental experiences sets it apart from other dental groups.
Hill remarked, “We take immense pride in our distinct culture and the seamless integration with our robust support systems. This is what differentiates Espire in the dental industry—raising the bar for patient care, setting new standards for support, and ensuring positive, fulfilling experiences for dental providers and team members.”
