Gen4 Dental Partners, a portfolio company of Thurston Group and a dental service organization, has acquired Smile One Services.

Smile One is a Michigan-based multi-specialty dental organization that provides general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, orthodontic practices and a pediatric dental surgery center. The organization will join the Gen4 Dental Partners umbrella which is intended to consolidate and challenge the status quo within the dental practice industry.

“We’ve always been a progressive organization, seeking new ways to help simplify practices to allow for greater focus on patient care and relationships,” stated Smile One Services founder and CEO, Darren Riopelle, D.D.S. “Our partnership with Gen4 Dental Partners puts patient care first while creating a better future for our providers, teams, and ultimately, our patients.”

“It’s always exciting to partner with forward-thinking, like-minded dentists and teams who believe in creating outstanding patient experiences and outcomes — and the exceptional people at Smile One Services are an ideal addition to Gen4,” said Gen4 Dental Partners CEO, Lamonte Jensen.
