North American Dental Group

Overview

North American Dental Group (NADG) operates as a dental support organization (DSO), acquiring and partnering with independent dental practices. The firm, based in New Castle, Pennsylvania, provides operational infrastructure—billing, HR, marketing, compliance—while leaving clinical decisions to on-site dentists. This model mirrors the roll-up strategy common in physician practice management but concentrated in dentistry. The company targets general and specialty dental practices across the US, particularly in underserved or suburban markets. Its portfolio includes multi-location groups and single-office practices. NADG does not publicly disclose the number of affiliated practices or patient volumes. The firm does not publish AUM, deployment figures, or team size. No institutional fundraising or direct investment structure is publicly documented. Operations appear funded through practice acquisition debt and practice-generated cash flows. NADG's structural differentiator is its focus on clinical autonomy within a DSO framework—emphasizing that partner dentists retain full clinical control while outsourcing non-clinical functions. This positioning is common among larger DSOs but NADG markets it as a core distinction.
