Taking dental service and partnership organisations to an elevated level, Imagen Dental Partners has announced their premium sponsorship of Dentsply Sirona World 2021. Imagen partnered with its first practice on 17 September 2020 in the United States (US) and has rapidly expanded its footprint to nine states over the past 12 months.
One of fastest-growing DPOs in the US, Imagen DPO® is a collective of high-performing, technology-forward dental practices. In addition, Imagen provides business and education support to independent dentists, enabling them to focus on delivering superior patient care while fostering practice growth and creating long-term wealth.
Imagen’s partner dentists retain full clinical autonomy, share their expertise with other partners, and benefit from the growth of their practice and the success of the entire Imagen community. Emphasising technology and mastery of advanced clinical skills, Imagen is at the forefront of true partnership, borne from the desire to support doctors performing dentistry at the highest standards.
“Every independent dentist will need a strategy to survive and thrive in a very rapidly consolidating dental industry,” said Rezwan Manji, chief executive officer of Imagen. “We are delighted to celebrate the one-year anniversary of our launch, having entered nine state in the past year and partnering with some of dentistry’s very best, and we can’t wait to share the opportunity our DPO provides to thousands of more practices at Dentsply Sirona World 2021.”
Imagen is a sponsor of Dentsply Sirona World 2021, and the official sponsor of the closing party featuring The Chainsmokers at OMNIA nightclub. Additionally, Imagen DPO® has partnered to produce tracks around the utilisation of technology in practice and the business of dentistry, featuring 12 of its speakers at DS World 2021.
Imagen DPO® has a long-term ownership structure with no institutional capital, offering a higher level of alignment with their dentist partners both financially and clinically. Along with robust business support, Imagen provides access to the industry’s most extensive offering of education and mentoring opportunities by Spear Education and CDOCS. This unique offering enables dentists to learn from leading educators to expand their skills and elevate their practice teams.
“A technology-forward mindset is a requirement at Imagen. All Imagen practice partners must utilise CAD/CAM and cone-beam or be willing to do so in order to partner with us. Technology unlocks practice growth and improves patient outcomes and their satisfaction with the treatment they receive,” said Michael Augins, president of Imagen Dental Partners. “We know from our research that high-tech practices outperform, and we see this as an essential part of who we are as an entity.”
“Becoming an Imagen Partner transformed my practice,” stated Dr Rich Rosenblatt, owner of Forest North Dental in Lake Forest, Illinois, US, and presenter at DS World 2021. “It removed the administrative headaches while allowing me to maintain clinical autonomy and ownership of my practice. In addition, we have formed a community of like-minded dentists where we can bounce cases off each other and create a future of better dentistry together. It’s amazing to be able to work with some of your best friends around the country and help them achieve their full potential. I couldn’t be more thrilled to be a part of something so transformational.”
With rapid expansion planned for 2022, Imagen is well on track to achieve its goal of becoming America’s fastest-growing dental partnership organisation. As a collective of partner doctors working together to raise clinical standards across the country, Imagen offers a unique opportunity for qualified practice owners to accelerate their growth and wealth creation potential.
