About

Connecting patients with independent dentists.

FindYourDentist is the consumer directory of the Alliance of Independent Dentists. We make it simple to find and reach independently owned dental practices — the dentists who answer to their patients, not to corporate or private-equity owners.

Who we are

The Alliance of Independent Dentists is a nationwide group of volunteer dentists committed to educating dentists and the public about the benefits of independent dentistry. We prioritize the sustainability of our profession, the quality of patient care, and the integrity of our practices over purely financial considerations.

Our story

The Alliance began in 2017 as the Massachusetts Dentists Alliance for Quality Care, advocating against insurance practices and policies that work against patients and independent dentists. The group was among the first to support Question 2 — which established the nation's first dental loss ratio requirement — and has since grown into a national organization.

An all-volunteer board

The Alliance is run by an unpaid volunteer board, so dues and donations go directly to serving the community and the profession.

How FindYourDentist works

Every practice listed here is a verified, independently owned member of the Alliance. Profiles are kept current from the Alliance's membership system, so the information comes straight from the practices themselves. Contacting a dentist — by phone, website, directions, or message — connects you directly with their office.
