What Boston Dental Group does

Boston Dental Group is a privately held, multi-location dental services organization headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, founded around 2002 by Dr. David Chung. The group operates 16 or more branded offices across the Las Vegas metropolitan area — including Las Vegas, Henderson, and Laughlin — and has announced expansion into Pahrump, Mesquite, Moapa, and Bullhead City, Arizona. It serves mass-market consumers with a full spectrum of dental services spanning general dentistry, cosmetic procedures, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, endodontics, periodontics, and oral surgery. Go-to-market is delivered through a portfolio of differentiated sub-brands — Boston Dental, Affordable Dental, Brighton Dental, Hola Dental, Happy Dental, and Reel Smiles Dental — each targeting distinct price points or demographic segments such as Spanish-speaking or value-oriented patients.

The group's clinical offering is built around in-house specialty capabilities rather than outsourced referrals, supported by established dental technology including E4D same-day crown fabrication, iTero intraoral scanning, laser dentistry, and Oral DNA testing. It complements its clinical operations with two non-clinical assets: BDG Academy, an in-house dental assisting school that functions as both a workforce development pipeline and a community-facing brand asset, and Project BDG, a community outreach initiative. These two programs sit alongside the multi-brand portfolio to support talent supply, brand affinity, and patient acquisition in a competitive Sunbelt market.

The business model is fee-for-service dental care augmented by insurance reimbursement and patient financing through CareCredit, OrthoBanc, and Cherry. Orthodontic treatment is offered with 0% interest in-house financing, and new patient acquisition is supported by free exam and X-ray promotions at the sub-brand level. No external funding, institutional investor activity, or B2B customer relationships are disclosed; the group is funded and operated on a privately controlled basis with revenue derived entirely from individual patients across its distributed retail-style footprint.
