Inc. magazine revealed that Spark Dental Management, a leading Dental Support Organization (DSO), was named to the annual Inc. 5000 list, ranking at No. 699 overall and 42nd among companies in the Health Services category. This is the fifth year that an affiliate group of Spark Dental Management was included in this prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies.
Spark Dental Management ranked No. 699 on Inc. Magazine’s list of the 5000 fastest-growing private companies, and No. 42 among the listed Health Services companies.
The theme of this year’s Inc. list was “Winning in a Time of Change.”

Among the top 500, the average median three-year revenue growth rate soared to 2,144 percent. Together, those companies added more than 68,394 jobs over the past three years.
“I’m incredibly proud of our organization and honored to receive this award,” said Chief Executive Officer Michael O’Donnell. “In this time of change, it takes an outstanding group of employees, both in our affiliated practices and within the management team, to overcome the myriad of challenges we face in our industry. This award speaks volumes about our employees to be able to demonstrate such growth.”

Through de novo builds and strategic acquisitions, the dental support organization grew to more than 70 practices and expanded its geographic footprint to seven states. Spark Dental Management now has locations in Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Georgia, Virginia, New Jersey, Delaware, and Indiana.
