Redefining Partnerships,

Revolutionizing Doctor Ownership

Our shared purpose of uniting doctors to protect patients through personalized care brings us together. Our dedication to preserving true doctor-owned practices pushes us forward. Our service of those practices sets us apart.

Our Driving Force

At PepperPointe Partnerships, ownership is not just about equity or shares in a company. It’s about taking care of patients, families, and communities, while doctors continue their important role as employer and decision maker. It’s about bringing together a group of doctors committed to a patient-first mentality. It’s about sharing best practices and efficiencies, as well as cost-savings, to enhance the business of practice-ownership, and protecting clinical autonomy, practice legacies, and thriving cultures.

Unlike any other dental service organization, we help doctors create generational wealth while preserving the legacy of the doctors and their practices. We do so by facilitating the formation of 100% doctor-owned pediatric dental and orthodontic group practices who are supported by PepperPointe Partnerships. Through our unique model, doctor owners experience unmatched financial security with greater rewards and fewer risks as they benefit from synergy and growth of the larger group. As owners, they also receive passive income in retirement.

“Being a member of the PepperPointe team has given me the feeling of camaraderie and support that was missing for so many years in my solo practice.”

Dr. Kirby Hoetker

Owner Pediatric Dentist

“We have been part of the PepperPointe family since the inception and I couldn’t be happier with the decision to partner with so many outstanding individuals.”

Dr. Thomas Baldwin

Owner Orthodontist

Led By Doctors,

Guided By Experience

Our team believes that leveraging the strengths and culture of doctor-owned dental practices will yield extraordinary results. That’s why we are devoted to empowering and working alongside our doctors. They can focus on what they were trained, and love, to do: provide excellent patient care and build long-lasting relationships.

PepperPointe has enlisted a team of leaders who are experts in their respected fields. We work to foster an environment of collaboration and trust, sharing our diverse ideas, experience, and expertise to help grow practices, optimize efficiencies, and remove the headaches from day-to-day operations. Our doctors continue to maintain control, and they have the support of an experienced team to help ensure their success and their future.

We Are Stronger Together

Partnership is in our name for a reason. That’s because we’ve discovered how much stronger we are together. We believe in it, we’re driven by it, and we live by it. When like-minded individuals – with a shared vision and mission – come together, great things happen.

The PepperPointe model creates a collaborative network of dental practitioners that is healthy and supportive, rather than isolating and competitive. Together, we’re able to achieve greater efficiencies and more comprehensive administrative benefits and share valuable best practices. We believe we have the strategy, team, infrastructure, and model to make a significant and decisive step toward saving the dental industry from a potentially dire future.

“Prior to PepperPointe Partnerships I was beginning to grow tired of practicing dentistry. Since joining PepperPointe, I have a new outlook.”

“Being a member of PepperPointe has given me the feeling of camaraderie and support that was missing for so many years in my solo practice. To have like-minded colleagues as a part of my extended team has been so encouraging and motivating. The support of the PepperPointe team has allowed me to focus on my gifts and turn the rest of the process over to experts. I am so grateful to be a part of this movement.”

Dr. Kirby Hoetker, Owner Pediatric Dentist

“We have been part of the PepperPointe family since the inception and I couldn’t be happier to partner with so many outstanding individuals. The support I have received has been invaluable. Knowing we are able to protect our legacies while continuing to provide the highest quality of care is something I am proud of. I am looking to the future with bright eyes and lofty goals – goals I know we can exceed with the support of PepperPointe.”

Dr. Thomas Baldwin, Owner Orthodontist

“Joining PepperPointe was an easy decision for our practice! It has been amazing to come together with so many other practices and share ideas, cut overhead costs and increase productivity and efficiency. The peace of mind of knowing that I control the rest of my dental career and it will continue to be in a privately owned practice is priceless. I am very thankful that my now-partners and friends made the decision to join PepperPointe .”

Dr. Cliff Lowdenback, Owner Orthodontist

“Prior to PepperPointe Partnerships I was beginning to grow tired of practicing dentistry. Since joining PepperPointe I have a new outlook. I feel excited about the next phase of my career. I know with PepperPointe’s support I can achieve practice and community outreach goals in my small town.”

Dr. Chris Herren, Owner Dentist

“The PepperPointe team has become my rock. I used to rely only on myself, and now I have many people that I can trust and rely on through PepperPointe. I truly have an operations team, a HR team, a finance team, a marketing team, and a strategy team. They have made my personal life more enjoyable without worrying about my office. I also still feel that I am a solo practitioner with as much autonomy as I want in my office, but with many added benefits of help when I need it.”

Dr. Donna Klein, Owner Pediatric Dentist

“PepperPointe has been great for my partners and me. I’ve had two illnesses during our partnership, but I’ve been able to continue with my practice and my lifestyle as normal. Since joining we’ve also been able to rebrand and remodel our office — two huge projects that probably wouldn’t have been possible (or would’ve been a lot more stressful) without this supportive team.”

Dr. Nick Murphy, Owner Pediatric Dentist
