Lightwave Leads the Way In Dental Practice Management
Dentists are natural leaders of the dental practice, so Lightwave was formed as the industry’s first Dental Leadership Organization to help them grow, lead and reach their goals. By partnering with premier dentists to provide non-clinical dental practice management services, Lightwave removes the burden of insurance negotiations, patient billing, practice marketing, human resources, recruiting, and much more. What separates Lightwave from other dental support organizations is a passionate people-first culture that values collaboration with dental leaders. Join an innovative alliance uniquely positioned to lead the way forward in group dentistry.
Preserving the Essence of Private Practice
The Lightwave team believes the best way to support our doctors’ growth is to provide dental practice management services with a tight focus on high clinical quality, core values, and innovative, people-first processes that fuel practice growth. We work with dentists at all three phases of their career and have created the dental leadership organization to help them realize their personal, professional, and financial goals.
Many traditional dental service organizations or corporate dental groups are quite unattractive to most dentists. That’s where we saw an opportunity to create something entirely different with Lightwave.
We are a dentist-owned and dentist-led culture. We care about our doctors’ patient relationships and the importance of protecting clinical autonomy through compassionate care, exceptional quality, ethical standards, and by providing a collaborative community for support and sharing best practices.
Solving the Challenges of Dental Practice Management
Effective dental talent acquisition that promotes the values of each practice, finding and pre-screening qualified candidates while supporting hiring needs.

Managing the challenges of recruiting and retaining the best dental talent with a thriving practice culture and proven leadership systems.

We’re distinct from corporate dentistry and unique when compared to other DSOs. Our people-first commitment as a Dental Leadership Organization is designed to support dentists and keep their teams happy and fulfilled.
