The Dental Group has been a leading provider of accounting, financial planning and transition consulting services in the Puget Sound region since the 1990’s. Today, Sam Martin’s accounting legacy continues on with Maggie Boyle, Brian Bray, Yianni Cardaras, Kevin Bray, and the rest of the DG Accounting Professionals LLC team. Sam will be working purely in financial planning and transition consulting full-time.
Benton Bray, PLLC is where the other half of our story began back in 1989. Brian Bray and Randy Benton joined forces to build a Certified Public Accounting and Business Advisory firm aimed at supporting the financial success of businesses and high-net worth individuals. Tyler Opp joined Brian in 2015 to support this vision. Brian Bray and Kevin Bray launched Dental Accounting Pros at the old Benton Bray offices in 2017 to grow a dental bookkeeping support team. Since then, both businesses experienced record growth and relocated to our current location in 2019. Today, Tyler Opp is now managing partner of Benton Bray continuing on with the Benton Bray vision of boutique accounting and business advisory to successful businesses and high-net worth individuals. Brian and Kevin merged the dental-side of the business with Maggie Boyle and Yianni Cardaras of The Dental Group to become the Pacific Northwest’s leading dental accounting & business advisory firm.
About Our Practice
Through decades of working with dentists (through our legacy company Benton Bray PLLC), we have honed our accounting and advisory skills. We understand the dials that turn up profitability in a dental practice and have a rich network of industry partners to help provide more value through our Practice Ignition Business Club, which provides continuing education to dentists across the nation. We launched the Dental Accounting Pros brand in 2016 with an aim to help even more practice owners across the country track their business performance through accurate monthly bookkeeping & support.

We are obsessed with helping our clients achieve financial success in the business of dentistry. We’ve been helping our clients prosper since 1989.
COVID has changed our world and how we interact. Our job is to help our clients navigate the new business landscape and make informed decisions.
We are your Dental Accounting Pros.
