Dandy

A dental group saved over $1.5 million in scanner costs by partnering with Dandy. What they didn't expect was what happened to their revenue. Apex Dental Partners, a rapidly growing DSO with 60+ practices across multiple states, faced a challenge every scaling dental group knows: fragmented lab relationships, no volume pricing, zero visibility into quality, and tens of thousands in annual scanner costs. They partnered with Dandy and the results speak for themselves: ✔ 12.5% projected increase in annualized revenue ✔ 29% reduction in remake rate ✔ 50% fewer denture appointments ✔ $1.5M+ saved in scanner costs with zero upfront investment ✔ Lab partnerships consolidated from 100+ down to 10 But beyond the numbers, this partnership changed how Apex practices deliver care every day. "I'm not having to sell the product to my doctors. Dandy's already created a good business model that makes sense." — Dr. Michael Fooshée, Chief Clinical Operations Officer "I remember it used to take me seven or eight appointments for dentures. This took four. It really reduced the patient's time away from their family and work." — Dr. Layla Lohmann, Co-Founder and Clinical Director "The Dandy Hub gives me one place where I can look at any doctor's scan and prep. I can see who's getting remakes and why. It has simplified my part of the process greatly." — Dr. Brad Eller, Director of Clinical Development At Dandy, we believe your lab partner shouldn't just be reducing costs. We want to help you unlock new revenue, improve clinical outcomes, and become a true competitive advantage. That's exactly what Apex is experiencing. And we're just getting started together.

For the first time in 27 years, a dental company just IPO'd. Wall Street is finally paying attention. But there’s also a massive problem people are overlooking. Two months ago, Park Dental Partners rang the Nasdaq bell. With 85 locations, 200+ dentists, and $20 million in proceeds, it seems like investors are finally betting on dental consolidation. But here's what no one's talking about. The dental industry is entering 2026 with a math problem it can't solve. The market is projected to grow to $58 billion by 2034. At the same time, 95% of dentists report extreme difficulty hiring. Enrollment in dental tech programs has dropped 30%. Senior technicians are retiring faster than we can replace them. The industry is growing. The workforce is shrinking. No amount of capital can fix that equation. You can't IPO your way out of a labor crisis. Most people see this and reach for the obvious playbook. More recruiting. Better wages. Signing bonuses. At Dandy, we asked a different question five years ago. What if one person could do the work of ten? We've spent every day since building the answer: - AI that auto-generates prosthetic designs—work that used to require hours of manual 3D modeling for every single case - 3D printing that produces in hours what used to take days - Robotics and automation on our manufacturing lines - Software that orchestrates the entire chair-to-lab workflow This is the innovation that led to over 2 million Americans having a Dandy prosthetic. We’ve shipped 250,000+ units in a month with a fraction of the labor that traditional labs would need. This isn't about replacing people. It's about making every person 10x more valuable. Every industry that scaled did it this way. Dental is the last major industry still stuck in the guild model. The companies that figure out how to break out of that will define the next era of dental care. The IPO last month was a milestone. But capital isn't the constraint. Talent is. And the only way out is through technology.

Dandy triples technician productivity with Oqcam! 💥 We are incredibly proud to share the work we have been doing with Dandy. Dandy is one of the largest and fastest growing digital dental labs in the US, with dozens of mills running 24 hours a day. “Our technicians were spending so much time on nesting,” says Aaron Chong. Freed from the responsibility of manual nesting, Dandy technicians are reaching new heights of productivity. Workflow automation pays off in other ways too, making it easier to onboard new technicians and keep up with the company’s growth. In addition to this significant productivity boost, Oqcam enables Dandy to prioritize work automatically and ensure the rules are applied automatically and consistently, regardless of the technician. “Our partnership with Oqcam has been very beneficial,” Nick McBride says. “We’ve been lucky to find a team that can help us scale and deliver on time, every time for our customers. I’m really grateful for that.” 👉 Full customer story: https://lnkd.in/eKVwg-aj
