What We Do
AppleWhite Dental Partners and the practicing dentists work together through a
management services agreement.
Dentists retain control over patient care and exercise professional judgment regarding the
patients and
treatment decisions. AppleWhite Dental Partners provides business support staff while the dentist
supervises clinical staff.

At AppleWhite, we know how important you are. Every member of our team plays a role in making our dental offices successful. |
Existing staff are always maintained when a dentist joins our group, unless the dentist requests otherwise. Dentists are compensated based on collections. Dentists are also encouraged to become partners in order to enjoy the benefits of passive income generated from the group.
AppleWhite Dental Partners provide both business support and professional mentoring and consulting services. Existing practices joining the group will receive business support in such areas as accounting, finance, purchasing, marketing, human resources and information technology, while the dentists continue to deliver dental services to their patients. This cooperative partnership allows the established dentist to focus on delivery of care and to maintain ownership status without having to deal with the hassles of administration. In addition, the group provides mentoring and support for the new and young dentists, allowing them a stress-free transition from education to private practice. The young and new dentist can establish themselves and gain ownership in the group, avoiding the many pitfalls of traditional "associateships."
Benefits to Dentists
With AppleWhite Dental Partners responsible for support services, dentists are able to devote virtually all of their time to caring for patients and maintaining their knowledge and clinical skills.
Benefits Include:
- Practice entrance and exit opportunity. Established dentists can capture equity in their practice, continue to be an "owner" through partnership and continue to generate income in their practices. Young dentists can establish their practices without the concern of financial hardship while still receiving mentoring and support.
- Administrative services are centralized throughout the partnership. This establishes overhead control and provides the group with great negotiating power with insurance companies and vendors.
- Independent office management allows the dentists autonomy over daily operations and treatment decisions.
- Competitive compensation packages individualized for each situation
- A complete benefits package, including health insurance, 401K, life insurance, etc.
- A flexible work environment.
- Capital resources for investment in physical location, technology, staff, etc.
- Economy-of-scale advantages arising from centralizing administrative functions and spreading costs over a broad base of practitioners.
