Smile Brands will provide the practice with administrative support, including assistance with purchasing, accounting, IT, marketing and facilities management.

Thirteen general dentists and specialists work for the seven-location practice to provide comprehensive dental care. Under the partnership, all existing staff will retain their roles and the practice will keep operating under its Southern Dental Associates name.

“Houston has long been an important market for Smile Brands and we are proud to be expanding our presence through this partnership with Southern Dental Associates,” Smile Brands CEO Steve Bilt said in a news release. “Our two teams share similar values including a commitment to improving lives by making dental care more convenient and affordable.”
