All-new ELITE Enterprise strategic sourcing group empowers midmarket dental practices with savings, partnerships and streamlined solutions to fuel growth and enhance patient care.
Benco Dental, the nation’s largest independent distributor of oral healthcare technology and supplies, is expanding its partnership with ELITE Enterprise to offer a new program for practices whose purchasing falls between Independent Dental Practices (IDPs) and large corporate chains.
ELITE Enterprise is the new dental Strategic Sourcing group, offered in exclusive partnership with Benco Dental. It was created specifically for mid-market, multi-location dental practices seeking to scale strategically while maintaining their independence.
ELITE Enterprise is an affiliate organization of ELITE Dental Alliance, the #1 strategic sourcing group for independent dental practices, and is designed to bring the same trusted relationships, pricing advantages and industry expertise to entrepreneurial dentists and dental service organizations (DSOs) that operate multiple locations but aren’t large enough to command the deep discounts that big corporate chains get on their own.
“ELITE Enterprise opens a new door for entrepreneurial dental practices and growing DSOs that are in a critical stage where capital is key for reinvesting in their teams, technology and systems,” said Wes Fields, Benco Dental’s Vice President of Strategic Markets. “Joining will immediately allow these practices to lower overhead while effectively outsourcing the most difficult and time-consuming aspects of procurement and negotiations, so they can point more resources at maintaining a strong growth trajectory.”
ELITE Enterprise is designed to help members:
- Save: Access exclusive pricing on dental supplies, equipment, and services—prices typically only available to the largest organizations.
- Grow: Tap into a network of industry partners, marketing support, and strategic services that help expand your footprint.
- Stay Independent: Maintain control of your brand, culture, and clinical decisions while still gaining scale advantages.
The expanding list of participating vendors includes A-dec, Coltene, Dexis, KaVo, Orthobrain, Planmeca, Solventum, Voco and many more. “Our vendor partners are carefully chosen to align with our mission of empowering dental groups to grow without sacrificing independence,” said Brett Pierce, President and CEO of ELITE Enterprise and ELITE Dental Alliance. “By collaborating with these trusted brands, we’re delivering not just cost savings, but also the tools and resources our members need to thrive.”
In addition, ELITE Enterprise members enjoy the added benefits of being a Benco Dental customer. Enhanced services ranging from in-office equipment repair to coaching, to award-winning interior design and practice marketing, provide members with proven efficiency and targeted expertise where it matters most.
This is the latest expansion of Benco Dental’s unique collaboration with ELITE Dental Alliance. In 2018, both partnered to create Benco Select Elite, a unique tier of the Benco Select customer loyalty program offering the ultimate in savings and rewards for independent dental practices. ELITE Enterprise is the next logical step for practices whose purchasing needs have expanded, or any entrepreneurial practice or DSO scaling their enterprise.
Together, Benco Dental and ELITE Enterprise are redefining how growth-minded dental practices achieve scale, savings, and success.
