The health system acquired Distinctive Dental Services of New York in Great Neck and the office of Leonard Patella, DDS, in Garden City. Both practices were rebranded as Northwell Health Physician Partners Dental Medicine locations, according to a Jan. 18 news release.
Northwell now has seven outpatient dental practices in its network.
The deals are part of Northwell’s mission to provide holistic care, according to David Hirsch, MD, DDS, senior vice president of dental medicine at Northwell and chair of dental medicine and oral and maxillofacial surgery at Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New York City and North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, N.Y.
In August, the health system launched a strategic partnership with ProHEALTH Dental to expand dental care in New York. ProHEALTH Dental operates 16 dental offices in New York and New Jersey.
At the Becker's 5th Annual Future of Dentistry Roundtable, taking place November 12–14 in Chicago, dental leaders and executives will gain insights into emerging technologies, practice growth strategies and the evolving landscape of dental care delivery, with a focus on innovation, patient experience and operational excellence.
