This model is gaining traction as solo practice ownership declines, with DSO-affiliated dentists representing over 10% of the profession in 2019 and rising among new graduates due to lower startup costs and mentorship opportunities. Key industry players such as Rock Dental Brands, Aspen Dental, Pacific Dental Services, and Deca Dental Group are cited as examples of entities facilitating this shift through centralized support structures.
