Altius is the largest DSO supporting rural populations in Texas, with 29 locations

Candid will work with the DSO to bring its teledentistry platform, CandidMonitoring, to dental practices serving rural patients. The platform lets patients share photos of their teeth with their dentist every 14 days to ensure successful treatment with fewer in-person appointments. 

Altius CEO Darren Boggs said April 12 the partnership will benefit patients who often have to drive up to 30 minutes to visit an orthodontist.
