Garland Dental Associates

What Garland Dental Associates does

Garland Dental Associates Ltd is a private, sole-practitioner dental office operating under founder Dr. Thomas McDermott, serving individuals and families across the Chicago metropolitan area from two physical locations: a Millennium Park office at 30 N Michigan Ave and a Belmont Avenue office at 6953 West Belmont Ave. The practice offers a comprehensive menu of general and specialized dental services, including preventive hygiene, restorative procedures (crowns, bridges, dentures, bonding, inlays/onlays), cosmetic treatments (veneers, Lumineers, whitening), dental implants, pediatric care (sealants, mouth guards), periodontics (Arestin, scaling and root planing, crown lengthening, occlusal adjustment, periodontal splinting), TMJ treatment, extractions, and root canal therapy. Clinical technology consists of Panorex panoramic X-ray imaging for diagnostics and Rotary Endodontics instruments for endodontic procedures.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer, fee-for-service model in which patients self-refer or are referred by existing patients and schedule appointments via phone or the practice website. Revenue is generated per procedure and per visit across the two locations, with no published pricing or subscription model. Marketing relies on the practice's informational website (thomasmcdermottdds.com), organic search presence, and third-party review/directory listings on Google Reviews and Healthgrades. No enterprise customers, insurance-network disclosures, or external investment are indicated; the firm is an independent Limited company with no parent organization.

Headcount is in the 11-50 range, consistent with a single principal dentist supported by hygienists, dental assistants, and administrative staff. No funding rounds, M&A activity, leadership changes, or product launches beyond incremental service-line additions are recorded in the available data. The firm is operating and serving patients under regular posted hours.

Broad incumbents

• Coast Dental: Multi-location dental group practice offering general, cosmetic, restorative, periodontal, and orthodontic services. Closely aligned with Garland's service portfolio and family-oriented patient base, operating in similar metro markets.
• Dental Care Alliance: Dental support organization supporting affiliated practices across multiple states with general, cosmetic, and specialty dental services. Comparable to Garland in comprehensive service delivery and patient demographic, with similar two-office neighborhood style footprint at the practice level.
• Pacific Dental Services: Dental support organization partnering with general and specialty dental practices across the U.S., offering modern practice support including technology and operations. Overlaps with Garland on the comprehensive general dentistry + specialty (perio, endo, oral surgery) service portfolio.
• Western Dental & Orthodontics: Large dental and orthodontic group practice emphasizing comprehensive general and specialty services. Highly comparable to Garland's service breadth (implants, dentures, endodontics, periodontics, orthodontics) and patient segmentation, but at significantly greater scale.
• Great Expressions Dental Centers: Multi-location dental group practice providing general dentistry, orthodontics, periodontics, endodontics, and cosmetic services. Directly comparable to Garland's full-service offering and patient demographic, but operates as a DSO/group across multiple states.
• Aspen Dental Management: Large multi-location dental service organization offering comprehensive general, restorative, and specialty services across the U.S. Comparable to Garland Dental Associates in service breadth (implants, dentures, cosmetic, orthodontics) but operates at vastly greater scale with a DSO model rather than independent ownership.
• Heartland Dental: One of the largest dental support organizations in the U.S., providing non-clinical support to affiliated general and specialty dental practices. Directly comparable to Garland's comprehensive service mix and patient demographic, but at a national scale with significant infrastructure advantages.

Direct peers

• Affordable Dentures & Implants: Multi-location dental practice focused specifically on dentures and dental implants, two of Garland's highest-ticket service lines. Highly comparable on the implants-and-dentures patient demographic and direct-to-consumer positioning, though narrower in overall service breadth.
