Smile Doctors

Headquartered in Austin, TX, Smile Doctors provides management services to orthodontic practices focused on both adults and children. The company began as a combination of two highly successful practices located in Central Texas and Southern Georgia.  Subsequently, significant expansion was achieved through organic growth and a potent M&A strategy.

Today, Smile Doctors is seen as the partner of choice for orthodontists looking for the benefits of back-office operations while maintaining a focus on delivering excellent patient care.  The market put a premium on the Smile Doctors platform because of the significant first-mover advantage in the orthodontic services market.  After modeling an aggressive 5-year strategy and exit plan, Thurston Group and its partners were able to realize their goal three (3) years ahead of schedule.
