Dentalcorp Holdings Ltd., one of the largest and fastest-growing networks of dental practices in North America, announced its entry into the U.S. market through the acquisition of Northstar Dental Partners, a dentist-led group headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, supporting 21 dental practices across South Florida, the Treasure Coast, Southwest Florida and Central Florida. The transaction marks Dentalcorp's first partnership in the United States.
Northstar was founded and is led by Dr. Jordan Tomalty, who will retain an ownership position in the business following the transaction. The acquisition increases Dentalcorp's network to more than 650 supported practices across North America. Nate Tchaplia, president of Dentalcorp, said Northstar stood out on quality of care, talent and culture, calling it a high bar for the company's first U.S. partnership. Dr. Tomalty said the partnership provides Northstar access to additional capital, operational infrastructure and technology resources while preserving the organization's leadership continuity.
The transaction reflects ongoing consolidation within the dental services industry, as dental support organizations pursue regional and cross-border expansion to increase scale and broaden access to technology-enabled practice management. It follows Dentalcorp's own take-private acquisition earlier in 2026 by investment funds affiliated with GTCR LLC, in a transaction that valued Dentalcorp at approximately $2.2 billion on an equity basis.
Financial terms of the Northstar transaction were not disclosed.
