Advanced Dental Brands

What Advanced Dental Brands does

Advanced Dental Brands (ADB), operating under legal entity Advanced Dental Management, is a Dental Partnership Organization (DPO) founded in 2007 by Dr. Richard Miller. Headquartered in Canton, Massachusetts, ADB partners with nearly 40 dental practices across 7 states in the Northeast U.S., supporting a network of 170+ dental providers and 400+ total team members. The company targets established dental practices generating over $1 million in revenue with 5+ operatories, engaging practice owners through a consultative 6-step partnership process that emphasizes clinical autonomy and preservation of each practice's local brand identity.

ADB's core offering is a platform-plus-services model in which it acquires partnership stakes in affiliated practices while providing comprehensive non-clinical business support including human resources, accounting and finance, IT systems (centered on the Denticon Practice Management System with integrated CRM), revenue cycle management and collections, marketing, and procurement and facilities management. The technology stack integrates third-party AI tools—Peerlogic for conversational AI-driven patient scheduling and call analytics, and Pearl AI for clinical imaging diagnostics—layered on top of Denticon. Affiliated practices offer general dentistry plus higher-acuity services including implants, oral surgery, Invisalign, sleep apnea screenings, and skin revitalization, broadening the per-practice revenue base.

The business operates a managed-services DPO model, capturing economics through partnership stakes in practices plus management fees for centralized services, with each partnership individually priced based on practice valuation and negotiated terms (not publicly disclosed). Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting practice owners in the Northeast. In June 2023, ADB received a growth equity investment from H.I.G. Capital to fund continued practice acquisitions, and the company has since invested in AI integration (Peerlogic deployment, January 2025), service-line expansion, and senior leadership reinforcement (CFO hire, January 2025; VP of Hygiene, late 2023).
