Dental Lifeline Network’s new DSO/Group Practice Strategy is a vital step in advancing its mission and ensuring continued growth as we work to expand access to care for those in need. This strategy builds on our long-standing and impactful partnerships like those we have with PDS Health and Dental365, which have consistently demonstrated the power of collaborations to transform lives through dentistry. We are equally excited about growing new partnerships with groups like P1 Dental Partners and Tend, which will allow us to reach even more patients and make an even greater impact. By fostering these relationships and strategically aligning with leading dental organizations, we are better positioned to realize our vision for the future – ensuring that vulnerable populations across the country receive the critical dental care they deserve.
Dental365 is a full-service dental group offering general dentistry and specialty services with locations throughout New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. A long-time partner with Dental Lifeline Network, Dental365’s exceptional volunteerism and support have been instrumental in advancing Dental Lifeline Network’s mission to provide life-changing dental care to individuals in need. Through their generosity and commitment, Dental365 has worked to serve vulnerable populations through DLN’s Donated Dental Service program and provide critical dental care they might otherwise not get.
Dental365’s CEO, Dr. Scott Asnis shared, “Dental Lifeline Network is a wonderful platform that provides our dentists and specialists a rewarding opportunity to volunteer their time. We are proud to be a partner, and more importantly, to help change the lives of those in need in our communities.”
Their partnership demonstrates a deep commitment to making a difference, not just in the dental chair but in the lives of countless individuals who can now smile with confidence and renewed hope.
P1 Dental Partners, a dental partnership organization serving patients in Illinois and Indiana, has been “officially” partnering with Dental Lifeline Network since early 2023, but P1 dentists have been volunteering through our Donated Dental Services program much longer than that. Their commitment to improving access to dental care for those in need demonstrates a profound sense of compassion and community responsibility. By supporting DLN’s mission, P1 Dental Partners are not only transforming lives, offering hope and dignity to individuals who might otherwise go without essential care.
“I have been a volunteer dentist for Dental Lifeline Network my entire career. It is one of the most rewarding charitable programs in dentistry,” said Dr. Chad Leighty, P1 dentist and longtime DDS volunteer. “My DLN patients are some of the most grateful and deserving patients in my practice and it is so rewarding to transform their lives with much needed dental treatment. There are often hugs and tears of thankfulness from my DLN patients and tears of joy from myself and my dental team. I am thrilled with the partnership of DLN and P1 Dental partners, as our network of dentists in P1 will make a huge impact in the lives of so many patients in need. The DLN team makes the entire experience so easy with their screening, support during treatment and follow up. I can’t wait to meet my next Dental Lifeline Network patient!”
This collaboration exemplifies the powerful impact that can be achieved when organizations come together to prioritize the well-being of others.
