Life Dental Group Acquires Starkville Dental, Expands Reach in Mississippi and Alabama

Starkville Welcomes New Dental Practice

Starkville, Mississippi, has recently seen a significant expansion in its healthcare services with the addition of Starkville Dental, newly acquired by Life Dental Group. This move marks an essential milestone for the company, underscoring its commitment to providing top-notch dental care to more communities. With this acquisition, the Life Dental Group will now operate 16 practices across Mississippi and Alabama, and they have plans to expand further by adding three to five more locations by the end of the year.

Introducing Dr. Cameron Hynum

Starkville Dental will be under the leadership of Dr. Cameron Hynum, DMD, who has shown a deep dedication to patient care while also being actively involved in the Starkville community. Dr. Hynum has academic roots in the area, having attended the University of Mississippi School of Dentistry in Jackson after earning his degree from Mississippi State University.

Jeff Hand, the CEO of Life Dental Group, expressed excitement about this development: “We are excited to add Starkville Dental to our family of offices and to welcome Dr. Hynum to our team. This acquisition represents not just growth in numbers, but an expansion of our commitment to provide exceptional dental care to more communities.” This adds to the growing presence of Life Dental Group in the region.

Life Dental Group’s Rapid Growth

Life Dental Group has experienced remarkable growth since its inception in 2017. The company has achieved a 40% Compound Annual Growth Rate since 2021, demonstrating a 219% increase in revenue since its first full year of operations and a staggering 464% increase since it was established. The financial success of the group is attributed to its innovative and effective management model, which allows for a focus on patient care without getting bogged down by administrative matters.

A Unique Business Model

What sets Life Dental Group apart from other dental service organizations is its hybrid ownership structure. The organization is both company-owned and dentist-owned. This ensures that every dentist within the network has a vested interest in the success of the group, promoting a collaborative environment that ultimately benefits patient care.

“Our mission is to equip our family of offices with best operational practices to foster continued patient satisfaction and growth,” Hand said. “We are committed to providing exceptional dental care that focuses on patient needs.” With this philosophy, Life Dental Group allows dentists to concentrate on what they do best – caring for their patients. By managing daily operations such as accounting, HR, and marketing, the group enables its dentists to devote their time and energy to delivering quality dental care.

What Lies Ahead

As Life Dental Group continues its expansion, it remains focused on enhancing patient experiences and services offered. The acquisition of Starkville Dental is just a part of a much larger vision, as the company strives to touch even more lives through quality dental care.
