When you partner with us, you’ll have access to tools and support that enhance your clinical freedom and decision-making, while we help you navigate the business side of things with clarity and confidence. It’s your practice, your patients, your way, and we’re here to make sure that vision becomes a reality.
Our Mission
At SGA Dental Partners, our mission and values are the F.I.R.E. that fuels everything we do. F.I.R.E. stands for Family, Integrity, Respect, and Empower Improvement—core principles that drive us to make a real difference in the world of dentistry. We exist to leave dentistry better than we found it by empowering dental professionals to thrive in a partnership built on trust and respect.
Centralized Support
SGA Dental Partners is a regional DSO, deeply rooted in the Southeast. We are committed to enhancing the communities where our dentists reside and flourish. Spanning across eight states, our operations support general dentistry practices and a thriving periodontal division, along with two labs and multiple specialty offices.
Dr. Zack Bentley and Jon Mikailonis bring together over 20 years of dental experience to lead the team that assists dentists throughout the partnership process. Managing the entire process from introduction through closing, SGA provides a white glove service to all our newly supported offices. Combined with industry expertise and Dr. Bentley’s vision as a clinician, we aim to ensure seamless transitions and successful partnerships.
