You are looking for a partner who will not interfere with the standard of care you have built. That is the partnership we designed.
Patient-first dentistry means something different to every doctor. Tell us what it means to you.
What matters most to you...Bluetree takes the parts of practice ownership that pull you away from patients. The parts that matter to your patients stay exactly where they are.
"I enjoy clinical dentistry. When I am allowed to do what I was trained to do and I am no longer burdened by the administrative needs, I am most satisfied in my work. I think I can do this much longer than I originally thought."
Lisa Kispert, DDS · Tualatin Pediatric Dentistry
The dental group industry has grown fast. That growth has come with a real cost for many dentists: production quotas that override clinical judgment, scripts for how you talk to patients in the chair, and treatment plans built to hit numbers rather than serve people. That model burns out providers and erodes patient trust.
Bluetree Dental was built on the opposite premise. As a doctor-owned DSO with 45+ practices across Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and California, we have the freedom to properly balance clinical and business principles because dentists own the majority of the company. Clinical standards run through our Chief Clinical Officer and the doctor-partner committee. Not a corporate operations team.
What that means for you: you decide the treatment. You decide the pace. You decide when a case belongs to you and when it belongs to a specialist in the network. The business runs around your clinical judgment, not the other way around.
The questions doctors ask most often when they are considering whether a group can actually protect patient-first dentistry.
No. You practice how you were trained. You choose your treatment philosophy, your case selection, and how you talk to patients. There are no scripts, no daily production quotas, and no imposed protocols. The structural reason this holds up is that dentists own the majority of the company.
We track production because we run a real business. We do not push you to hit a number your clinical judgment tells you is not there. If a patient does not need it, you do not sell it. Both clinical care and sustainable business practices get to be true at the same time because the people making the calls are the ones sitting chair-side.
The patients you build relationships with are yours. We do not reassign them to hit targets or move them between providers for operational convenience. The local identity of the practice stays intact.
Clinical standards, hiring decisions, and treatment philosophy run through our Chief Clinical Officer Dr. Alan Larkin and the doctor-partner committee. The administrative side (billing, HR, marketing, vendor management) sits with the support team so clinicians can focus on clinical work.
