Gen4 Dental Partners, a newly formed Dental Service Organization, acquired Harris Dental, a nationally recognized leader in cosmetic dentistry. The terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Harris Dental has been in practice for more than 40 years and is a nationally recognized leader in cosmetic dentistry located in Phoenix, Arizona. It employs five dentists who provide excellent service. The practice is known throughout the Phoenix area for its exceptional sedation dentistry and implants.
A portfolio company of the private equity group The Thurston Group, Gen4 Dental Partners is one of the fastest growing, and highly innovative dental services organization, providing world-class support to leading providers of dental services. It is based in Tempe, Arizona and was formed in 2021.
“Harris Dental exemplifies the perfect fit for the type of practices we seek to partner with, support and grow,” said Gen4 Dental Partners CEO, Lamonte Jensen. “Its culture of excellent patient care is exactly what we want to amplify while giving our new partner-dentists true autonomy and greater financial freedom.”
This acquisition is Gen4’s first venture into Arizona and strengthens its foothold in the western region of the country. This is the first purchase for Gen4 Dental Partners for 2022. In 2021, it made two acquisitions; Accelerate Dental, in Lawrence Kansas and Moberly Family Dentistry in Moberly, Missouri (more information on the Moberly acquisition can be found here).
Additionally, this is the fourth dental acquisition of 2022. Heartland Dental acquired LWSS Family Dentistry in Chesapeake, Virginia; Beverly Smiles Family Dental of Chicago was purchased by Great Lakes Dental Partners; and Dental Care Alliance, LLC acquired Midland Park Family Dentistry of Midland Park, New Jersey. With a strong start to the quarter, we at Irving Levin Associates anticipate that dental will have a high performing quarter.
