Save More. Do More. Stay Independent. — How Clients Use BEST for Dentistry to Reduce Operating Expenses

Published by Dental Accounting Group | The Successful Dentist™ | March 2026 | Partner Spotlight

As your trusted accounting partner, we are always looking for the best ways to help your dental practice reduce overhead costs, improve cash flow, and operate more efficiently. That’s why we’re excited to highlight a partnership that’s already delivering real, measurable savings for independent dental practices — helping practice owners strengthen their bottom line while maintaining high-quality patient care and a strong patient experience.

What Is BEST for Dentistry?

BEST for Dentistry (Building Everyone’s Success Together) is a group purchasing and practice management solutions network built specifically for independent dental practices and dental offices. Its mission is simple: level the playing field against corporate dentistry by giving independent offices access to the same buying power, lower prices, resources, and expertise that large DSO groups enjoy.

Premium membership provides access to:

  • Dental Supplies & Equipment
  • PPO Solutions
  • Compliance Training
  • Dental Labs
  • Group Health Insurance
  • Retirement Benefits
  • Human Resources Support
  • Tax & Financial Experts
  • Patient Financing
  • Payment Processing
  • Practice Technology
  • Front Office Solutions

These tools support better inventory management software, improved efficiency at the front desk, and a more connected digital space for managing your dental services and daily operations.
