Metairie, La.-based Smilebliss Orthodontics has grown to support 30 offices in 14 states.
Smilebliss Orthodontics was founded in 2021 as an alternative operational model to support orthodontists. The organization provides orthodontists with marketing, operational and equipment support without having them give up a portion of ownership, according to a June 5 news release.
This operational model has led start-up practices to acquire an average of 600 new patient starts and see more than $2 million in net production within their first year, the company said.
