What Carolinas Centers does

Carolinas Center for Oral & Facial Surgery (CCOFS, DBA) is a privately held oral and maxillofacial surgery practice operating 22 state-of-the-art, AAAHC-accredited surgical centers across North Carolina and South Carolina. Founded in 1986 and headquartered in Charlotte, NC, the practice delivers a comprehensive clinical portfolio spanning dental implant surgery (single, full arch, full mouth, and zygomatic), wisdom teeth removal and impacted tooth extractions, corrective jaw surgery, TMJ and orofacial pain treatment, cleft and craniofacial surgery, facial cosmetic surgery, and sleep apnea treatment. Patient care is delivered by a multidisciplinary team of board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons, prosthodontists, orofacial pain specialists, and in-house CRNAs/anesthesiologists, with the Envision sub-brand offering prosthodontist-led full-arch restoration and full-mouth reconstruction.

The practice's underlying clinical platform combines 3D CBCT imaging, computer-guided surgical planning, PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) healing, EXPAREL non-opioid pain management, and in-house anesthesia capabilities across all locations. Procedures are supported by an ecosystem of financing partners (CareCredit, Sunbit, Proceed Finance) and in-network participation with major medical and dental payors including Aetna, Aflac, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Delta Dental, Guardian, MetLife, Sun Life, Unum, GEHA, and Careington, alongside a dedicated dentist and orthodontist referral program.

CCOFS generates revenue on a fee-for-service and insurance-reimbursement basis at the procedure level (one-time/per-case pricing for oral surgery, implants, TMJ treatment, facial cosmetic procedures, and cleft/craniofacial surgery), supplemented by transaction-based in-network insurance reimbursement and recurring patient-financing flows through its lending partners. The customer base is entirely B2C — individual patients across the Carolinas — with no enterprise, institutional, or B2B revenue concentration. Distribution is exclusively direct, via owned surgical centers, the mycenters.com website, phone scheduling, and dentist/orthodontist referrals.
