Our mission is to support ADSO member companies and their teams through research, education and advocacy.
About us
The Association of Dental Support Organizations (ADSO) is a non-profit organization comprised of more than 40 member companies and more than 100 industry partners. ADSO represents Dental Support Organizations (DSOs) before the public, policymakers and the media. Our members enable supported dentists to focus on their patients and expand access for dental care while maintaining the highest standards of business and professional ethics. Our members operate in 44 states and provide the highest level of non-clinical support to more than 13,000 dentists across the country as well as in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. DSO-supported dentists, on average, have lower startup costs for a new practice, spend more time on clinical care within their practice than their non-DSO supported counterparts, and offer more flexible office hours for their patients. ADSO is the source of information regarding the role DSOs play in the evolving dental services marketplace.

The Association of Dental Support Organizations (ADSO) reposted this
The The Association of Dental Support Organizations (ADSO) is more than just government affairs—it’s about empowering dental organizations to thrive! We bring together the entire dental ecosystem—from patients and providers to DSOs, dental schools, payers, and industry leaders—to fuel growth, innovation, and execution. At the ADSO Summitt this past week, they went beyond discussions—they delivered high-impact, curriculum-driven breakout sessions packed with actionable strategies you can implement immediately. Attendees don’t just listen; they engage, collaborate, and leave with real solutions to elevate their practices. If you’re ready to shape the future of dentistry, join the ADSO!!
