About the Event

The dental landscape is entering a new phase of competition and consolidation. Growth opportunities remain strong, but labor shortages, rising operating costs, and increasing patient expectations are reshaping how DSOs and independent groups scale successfully. At the same time, technology is rapidly redefining both clinical workflows and the patient experience — creating opportunity for those who invest strategically and risk for those who fall behind.

This Dental + DSO Virtual Event brings together DSO executives, multi-site group leaders, practice owners, investors, and industry partners to examine what growth will require over the next five years. Across three focused sessions, we’ll explore sustainable expansion strategies, winning approaches to recruitment and retention in a tight labor market, and how technology will shape the future of dental care delivery and patient engagement.

Whether you lead a large DSO, manage a growing platform, operate an independent practice, or support dental organizations through investment or services, this event is designed to provide actionable insights to compete and grow in a rapidly evolving market.
