Riverstone Dental

What Riverstone Dental does

Riverstone Dental is a privately held, full-service dental practice operating two physical offices in Bluffton (headquarters, 1429 N Baker Place) and Decatur, Indiana (234 N 1st St), serving families and individuals across northeastern Indiana and western Ohio. Founded in 2000 by Dr. James Taylor and currently led by Dr. Molly Sigler and Dr. Blake Taylor, the practice employs 21+ staff across the two locations, including two practicing dentists, eight dental hygienists, six dental assistants, a five-person business team, an office manager, and an insurance coordinator. The firm offers general dentistry (preventive cleanings, exams, fluoride, sealants, periodontal care via Perio Protect), cosmetic dentistry (teeth whitening, Invisalign), restorative dentistry (implants, crowns, bridges, dentures, root canals, extractions, TMJ treatment), and facial esthetics (Botox, dermal fillers).

The practice's clinical capability is anchored in advanced diagnostic and treatment technology including a Cavitron ultrasonic cleaner, intraoral cameras, digital radiographs, a 3-D intraoral scanner, a 3D panoramic machine, and Cone Beam CT imaging for implant planning and complex procedures. These tools support comprehensive in-house care and reduce referral-out for advanced cases. The service mix is broad for a two-location community practice, spanning insurance-reimbursable preventive work, higher-fee restorative and cosmetic procedures, and ancillary medical-aesthetic treatments.

Riverstone Dental generates revenue primarily through fee-for-service dental care billed to patients and insurers, supplemented by an in-house annual subscription (the Riverstone Dental Wellness Plan) that provides preventive care at discounted rates plus 15–20% off additional treatments for uninsured patients. Third-party financing is offered through CareCredit, providing interest-free 6–12 month and extended payment plans that support higher-value case acceptance. The practice acquires patients through its website, Facebook and Instagram presence, Google reviews (5.0 across 180 reviews), community event participation, and word-of-mouth referrals, operating a direct-to-consumer go-to-market motion targeting households in the Bluffton/Decatur and surrounding Monroe, Ossian, Convoy, Van Wert, and Willshire communities.
