Leading provider of integrated ancillary medical services provider acquires Dest Dental Management and Sterling Dental.

Overland Park, KS, May 4th, 2021 – Aria Care Partners, the leading provider of integrated ancillary medical services for skilled nursing facilities, today announced that it has acquired Dest Dental Management and Sterling Dental.

Dest Dental Management has provided mobile dentistry for nursing homes and skilled nursing facilities throughout North Carolina since 2007. Dest has been a long-term successful clinical partner of Aria Care Partners, making the acquisition a natural next step.

Sterling Dental has been in practice for over 20 years, offering best-in-class dental services and insurance across Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri. With this acquisition, Aria Care Partners has acquired the Missouri and Kansas operations.

“We’re excited to join with Aria Care Partners and continue to deliver high-quality care,” said Sterling Stalder, DDS. “By combining our practice with Aria Care Partners’ services and expert support, we’ll be able to engage more residents and their families in improving their oral health, so they have healthy smiles for years to come.”

Both acquisitions are part of Aria Care Partners’ growth strategy to increase service capabilities and serve more skilled nursing and long-term care facilities.

“Aria Care Partners is continuing to expand on its mission to improve the quality of life for every resident we serve,” said John Griscavage, CEO of Aria Care Partners. “The acquisition of both companies is the first of several this year, and as an industry leader in ancillary services, both organizations help expand our footprint and broaden our capabilities, helping us provide comprehensive dental care for more residents.”
