Independent but not alone. Our mission to "Empower and Preserve Independent Dentistry" provides a platform for independent dentists to organize and unite as a large group. Currently Serving: ID,NV,NM,PA,UT,W. TX Collectively, Dental Cooperative members can accomplish what individual dentists cannot. Through the Dental Cooperative, our dentist members maintain their independence as dental practitioners and private business owners while having access to benefits that are normally only available to large corporate practices. There is strength in numbers. If you are an independent dentist who is interested in membership in the Dental Cooperative, our program provides all the advantages of a corporate practice with few of the headaches. More importantly, our member dentists maintain complete independence and have more, not less, freedom through the cooperative structure. Reducing Practice Cost 1.
