🤯 An estimated 150 to 300 DSOs now represent 20% to 25% of U.S. dental offices.

That's a lot of locations, teams, and patient experiences to keep connected.

With so many technology options available, how do DSO leaders know which platforms can actually support their growth?

We've rounded up 8 questions worth asking when evaluating a dental marketing platform.

Read our latest blog to see what should be on your checklist.

Your front desk can't answer every call. Now, it doesn't have to. Meet the AI Receptionist Agent, the newest addition to DentalOS® Agents+. ✨

Built to give busy front desk teams an extra hand, the AI Receptionist Agent helps manage patient calls and scheduling, freeing up staff to focus on the patients right in front of them.

Here's what it can do:
→ Answer inbound patient calls 24/7 in English or Spanish
→ Book and reschedule appointments directly in Denticon using real-time availability
→ Answer common patient questions
→ Warm transfer callers to your team with a summary when a human touch is needed

For growing DSOs, that means less time spent managing routine calls, more time focused on patients, and a smarter way to support operations as you scale.

The market is keeping DSO leaders guessing. Brian Colao has a few things they shouldn’t wait on.

In our latest episode of All Things DSO, Brian Colao, Director of Dykema’s DSO Industry Group, joined Beth Gaddis to break down what’s next in this “age of disorder” and where leaders can take action now:

→ Grow existing locations through new patient acquisition, treatment acceptance, and tighter overhead management.
→ Improve underperforming areas of the business that could offer the biggest opportunities for return.
→ Strengthen culture, doctor retention, and compliance to support future buyer interest.
→ Keep financial reporting clear and reliable, especially in doctor joint ventures.
→ Plan ahead for disruptions, from cyberattacks to the unexpected loss of a key practice owner.

They also covered regulatory developments in Colorado and California, international DSOs entering the U.S., and Brian’s outlook for a sizable dental IPO that could be coming in early 2027.

Huge news. We’ve officially surpassed 100 integration partners, making DentalOS® the most connected platform built for DSOs! 🎉

For DSO leaders, this means more freedom to choose the technologies that work best for your organization, with connected workflows that help reduce duplicate data entry across locations.

As our CEO Eric Giesecke puts it:

“No single company solves every problem a DSO faces. We built DentalOS so the companies that do could connect on one platform. Over a hundred partners have said yes to that vision and the ecosystem we're building together is only going to get stronger.”

Thank you to our partners for helping us reach this milestone. We’re excited to keep building together.
