Imagen Dental Partners has launched as a dental partnership organization (DPO) focused on technology-oriented dental practices.
Imagen said that it allows full clinical autonomy for dentists, while emphasizing technology and mastery of advanced clinical skills and encouraging dentists to practice at the highest possible standards. All practices must utilize CAD/CAM technologies and cone-beam computed tomography (CT) or be willing to do so upon joining the partnership, according to Imagen.
Practices that join get paid for the dentistry they produce, as well as for the profitability of their practice and Imagen as a whole. In addition, Imagen said it provides educational and mentoring opportunities by Spear Education and CDOCS, as well as growth "playbooks" to help practices reach their growth potential. What's more, partner practices can access Imagen's business support services.
Imagen noted that it has a long-term ownership structure with no institutional capital, enabling a higher level of financial and clinical alignment with its dentist partners. It currently has operations in Arizona, Georgia, Illinois, Minnesota, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Wisconsin. Rapid expansion is planned for 2021.
