Maximize Your Practice’s Buying Power with Dentalink IPA
For independent dentists, managing costs while maintaining high-quality patient care can be challenging. Unlike large Dental Support Organizations (DSOs) that benefit from bulk purchasing power, independent practices often struggle to secure competitive pricing on essential supplies, lab services, and equipment.
This is where Dentalink IPA makes a difference. By joining a dental buying group, independent dentists can leverage group purchasing power, access exclusive vendor discounts, and receive business support—without giving up their autonomy.
What is a Dental Buying Group?
A dental buying group, also known as a group purchasing organization (GPO), allows independent dental practices to pool their purchasing power and negotiate better pricing, vendor relationships, and business resources. Instead of negotiating alone, members of Dentalink IPA benefit from pre-negotiated discounts and expert-backed operational support.
How Dentalink IPA Helps Independent Dentists Save and Grow
1. Exclusive Vendor Discounts – Reduce Overhead Costs
One of the biggest advantages of joining Dentalink IPA is access to significant cost savings on dental supplies, lab services, and equipment.
- Lower pricing on clinical supplies and dental consumables
- Discounts on large and small equipment purchases
- Special pricing on patient financing, compliance tools, and practice management software
Many members save thousands of dollars annually, allowing them to reduce expenses and reinvest in their practice’s growth.
2. Maintain Independence – No Corporate Influence
Unlike DSOs, Dentalink IPA does not take ownership or control over your practice. Members retain complete autonomy while benefiting from the power of group purchasing.
- No restrictions on vendor selection
