Join the Multi-Billion Dollar Dental Revolution.

Tap into billions of private equity funding, accelerate your practice growth, and achieve 7x–13x EBITDA valuations —while retaining control of your practice.

The Power of Dental Partnership Platforms (DPPs)

A new model that grants dentists the ownership, growth potential, and freedom DSOs can’t match.

Traditional DSOs limit your autonomy – the dentist has no say.

Dentist-owned and dentist-led DPPs put you in control of your future.

DSOs

  • Imposes strict rules
  • Limits ownership potential
  • Caps overall valuations

DPPs

  • Dentist-driven structure
  • Retain majority ownership
  • Unlock 7x – 13x EBITDA multiples

With Journey Dental Group, you gain the support, camaraderie, and financial power to reach your full potential.

Your Questions, Answered.

What is a DPP?

A Dental Partnership Platform (DPP) merges like-minded dental practices into a single structure that operates like its own DSO, allowing dentists to retain autonomy, grow their EBITDA, and achieve high valuations.

What is EBITDA?

EBITDA stands for Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. It’s a key measure of profitability and is used to calculate practice valuations.

How is a DPP different from a DSO?

Unlike DSOs, which impose strict rules and non-compete agreements, DPPs allow dentists to retain clinical and operational control while benefiting from the financial advantages of being part of a larger platform.

Why is now the perfect time to act?

Billions are flowing into dental practices. Private equity is back on the hunt, creating opportunities for exponential growth. The market is hotter than ever—don’t miss your chance to capitalize.
