A dental corporation is a business entity that provides dental services and products. It is typically owned by a dentist, who employs other dentists and dental professionals to run the corporation. Dental corporations may offer dental services and products to patients in one or more locations.
The benefits of a dental corporation include providing access to a wider range of services, economies of scale, and the ability to offer additional services that may not be available in a solo practice. Dental corporations can also provide a degree of financial stability for dentists and their employees.
