United Family Dental Group

What United Family Dental Group does

United Family Dental Group is a privately held, single-location dental practice founded in 1994 by Dr. Simon Imanuel and operating from 14150 Van Nuys Blvd., Unit 105 in Arleta, California. The practice serves individual patients and families across the San Fernando Valley communities of Arleta, Mission Hills, North Hills, Pacoima, Panorama City, and Sun Valley, and operates with a headcount of 11–50 employees under a direct-to-consumer go-to-market that relies on phone scheduling, website appointment requests, walk-ins, and local review platforms (Google, Yelp, Facebook, Instagram).

The practice delivers a comprehensive service catalog spanning nine clinical categories: general and family dentistry (cleanings, exams, sealants, emergency care, fluoride, nitrous oxide sedation, oral cancer screening, extractions), cosmetic dentistry (veneers, smile makeovers, teeth whitening), restorative dentistry (implants, All-on-4, crowns, fillings, dentures, mini implants, full-mouth reconstruction), periodontics (scaling and root planing, soft tissue grafting, LAPIP laser treatment, antibiotic therapy, periodontal maintenance), orthodontics (Invisalign, clear aligners for adults and teens), endodontics (root canal therapy), oral surgery (bone grafting, wisdom teeth removal), pediatric dentistry, and advanced dental technology (cone beam 3D imaging, digital X-rays, soft tissue laser). Clinical operations are supported by Align Technology as a vendor for Invisalign systems and by third-party financing partners (CareCredit, Cherry, Lending Club) for patient payment plans.

Revenue is generated primarily through fee-for-service dental procedures billed to patients and PPO insurers including Aetna and BlueCross BlueShield, supplemented by an in-office annual membership plan offering two cleanings per year plus a 20% discount on cash-paid treatments. The practice is founder-led, privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, and holds memberships in the American Dental Association, California Dental Association, and San Fernando Valley Dental Society. No revenue, funding, M&A, or expansion data is disclosed.

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Sonrava Health: Diversified dental and orthodontic platform (parent of Western Dental, Brident, and other brands) offering general, specialty, and orthodontic care. Comparable multi-specialty stack and West Coast market presence.
• Aspen Dental: National DSO with general dentistry, restorative, implants, and clear aligner offerings — overlapping strongly with United Family Dental Group's restorative and implant service lines, including All-on-4-style full-arch cases.
• Pacific Dental Services: One of the largest US DSOs supporting owner-dentists with multi-specialty services including general, restorative, endo, perio, ortho, and oral surgery. Comparable multi-specialty operating model, though at significantly larger scale and with a different ownership/governance structure.
• Western Dental & Orthodontics: Large California-headquartered DSO offering general, orthodontic, and multi-specialty dental services across hundreds of offices. Directly comparable scope of services (general + ortho + cosmetic) and overlap in the SoCal market, but operates at vastly greater scale.
• Comfort Dental: Franchise-style DSO offering general dentistry, orthodontics, and implants across the US. Comparable service breadth (general + ortho + restorative) and family-practice positioning, though it relies on a franchise model rather than founder-led independence.
• Heartland Dental: Largest US dental support organization, providing non-clinical support to thousands of dentist-led offices. Comparable comprehensive general + specialty mix and similar family-practice focus, but operates as a DSO across many states rather than a single location.
• Bright Now! Dental: DSO with general dentistry, orthodontics, and specialty services across the western US, including California locations. Comparable consumer-facing brand and similar service breadth, but with DSO scale and centralized operations.

Emerging players

• SmileDirectClub: Direct-to-consumer clear aligner brand, partially competitive with the practice's Invisalign/clear aligner offering. Not a clinical services peer overall, but a relevant adjacent competitor for orthodontic case acquisition in the same San Fernando Valley consumer market.
• ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers: Network of dental implant centers specializing in full-arch implant solutions (e.g., All-on-4). Partial overlap with United Family Dental Group's All-on-4 and full-mouth reconstruction offerings, but with a singular focus on implant cases rather than general dentistry.
• Imagen Dental Partners: DSO rollup of high-performing independent dental practices, providing autonomy to owner-dentists while offering back-office support. Direct comparison point for any future rollup of independents like United Family Dental Group.
