THE P.A.S AND AFFILIATED DENTISTS, THE REIMBURSEMENT RATES FOR DENTAL SERVICES,
AND OTHER RISKS DETAILED IN THE COMPANY'S SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
FILINGS. OTHER RISK FACTORS ARE LISTED IN THE COMPANY'S REGISTRATION STATEMENT
NO.333-34429 AS FILED WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

         Dental Care Alliance, Inc. ("DCA") was formed on October 23, 1996 to
effect a reorganization among DCA, Golden Care Holdings ("GCH"), the predecessor
which was incorporated in 1993, and its majority owned subsidiaries,
(collectively, the "Company"). The Company provides management and licensing
services to dental practices in Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Indiana and
Pennsylvania. As of December 31, 1998, the Company provided management services
to 78 Dental Centers ("Managed Dental Centers"). As of December 31, 1997, the
Company provided services to 32 Dental Centers, 29 of which were Managed Dental
Centers and three of which the Company only provided licensing services
("Licensed Dental Centers"). The Company discontinued providing services to the
Licensed Dental Centers in 1998. Management services include financial,
accounting, billing, training, efficiency and productivity enhancement,
recruiting, team building, marketing, advertising, purchasing, collection and
other services, as well as the provision of management and administrative
personnel. Licensing services include marketing, advertising and purchasing. See
"The Company" and Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for
information relating to the history of the Company.

         On March 12, 1999, based upon shareholder approval on March 11, 1999,
DCA became a wholly-owned subsidiary of InterDent, Inc. as a result of a
business combination between DCA and Gentle Dental Service Corporation, a
Washington corporation.

SERVICES AND OPERATIONS

         The Company provides management and administrative services to the
Managed Dental Centers but does not provide dental care services. The Company
provides, supervises or facilitates financial, accounting, billing, training,
efficiency and productivity enhancement, recruiting, team building, marketing,
advertising, purchasing, collection and other services for the individual dental
professional corporations or professional associations (the "P.A.s") and employs
the Managed Dental Centers' management and administrative personnel. The P.A.s
employ and maintain full control over the general dental and specialty dental
practitioners (such as orthodontists, periodontists, endodontists and oral
surgeons) working at the Managed Dental Centers ("Affiliated Dentists"),
hygienists and other dental professionals and set standards of care in order to
promote the provision of high quality dental care. The individual P.A.s are
responsible for compliance with state and local regulations of the practice of
dentistry and with licensing and certification requirements, and each P.A. is
responsible for acquiring and maintaining professional liability insurance. The
Company's services can be grouped into three broad categories: personnel
services, operational services and financial services.

                                       1
<PAGE>
         PERSONNEL SERVICES

         TRAINING AND EDUCATION. The individual P.A.s employ, supervise and
train all dentists, dental hygienists and other dental professionals at each
Managed Dental Center. The Company, while not engaged in the practice of
dentistry, assists the individual P.A.s in training and educating professional
personnel by providing analyses that allow the P.A.s to determine training
needs. All personnel, other than dentists, dental hygienists and other dental
professionals, are supervised and trained by the Company or its subcontractor.
The Company also helps to coordinate group meetings and seminars at which the
P.A.s provide continuing education to their professionals. In addition, the
Company encourages and facilitates team building of the staffs through regularly
scheduled staff meetings and social events. Each individual P.A. maintains full
control over the practice of dentistry by the dental professionals it employs
and sets standards of practice in order to promote quality dental care.

         RECRUITING. The Company continually assists the P.A.s in recruiting
dentists to add to its network as Affiliated Dentists. Such recruiting takes
place at dental schools through the Company's contacts at such schools, at
regional dental conventions and through advertising in regional and national
dental publications. Recruitment of general dentists, specialists and other
professionals is the primary responsibility of the Company's Director of
Development.

         HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT. The Company is responsible for the hiring,
retention, salary and bonus determination, job performance-related training and
other similar matters affecting Company employees, which include non-dental
professionals providing services to the P.A.s. Services provided by the Company
include: (i) payroll administration, including recordkeeping, payroll
processing, making payroll tax deposits, reporting payroll taxes and related
matters; (ii) risk management, including on-site safety inspections and
monitoring, training, and workers' compensation claim management and
administration; (iii) administering benefit plans; and (iv) the provision of
human resource materials, consulting and expertise on other human resource
issues. A professional employer organization (the "Co-Employer") assists the
Company in providing these services. The Co-Employer arrangements allow the
Company to improve productivity and profitability by relieving it of certain
burdens associated with employee administration, helping it to better manage
certain employment-related risks, improving cash management with respect to
payroll-related expenses and enabling it to provide certain benefits on a
cost-effective basis. The Company intends to assume the responsibilities of the
Co-Employer when it becomes operationally efficient for the Company to do so.
See Item 1 "Business-Employees."

         OPERATIONAL SERVICES

         MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS. The Company utilizes its information
systems to track data related to each Managed Dental Center's operations and
financial performance. Billing and collection information is compiled on a daily
basis, enabling the Company to monitor financial performance and operational
efficiency. The Company generates reports for each Managed Dental Center
containing information as to every visit, charge and procedure. These reports
are reviewed by either the Company's Chief Financial Officer or Controller and
then by the Operations Department which analyzes performance and efficiencies,
particularly the ratios of dollars per patient. These reports are also given to
the Dental Director who reviews them for inefficiencies and evaluates how
performance may be improved. The Company provides an analysis of these results
to the P.A.s and recommends specific measures to improve the financial
performance of the Managed Dental Centers. The analysis enables a Managed Dental
Center to improve its financial performance by making periodic adjustments in
marketing and operations.
                                       2
<PAGE>
         QUALITY ASSURANCE. Prior to the execution of a Management Agreement
with a new P.A., the Company evaluates the dental practice to determine in which
areas, if any, the proficiency level of the dental professionals employed by the
P.A. can be enhanced. The Company also works closely with the Dental Directors
to assure that quality dental services are being provided. While supervision of
dental services is the responsibility of the Dental Directors, the Company
provides Dental Directors with reports that help them evaluate performance. For
example, certain dental laboratories monitor the case quality of the Affiliated
Dentists in performing particular tasks. Such monitoring allows the Company and
the P.A.s to notify the appropriate Dental Director if any procedure is being
done inefficiently at a particular Managed Dental Center or by a particular
Affiliated Dentist or other dental professional. The Dental Director then works
directly with the dental professionals at the Managed Dental Center to identify
the reason for the inefficiency and to implement solutions, such as additional
training, to improve performance in that area. The Company also performs patient
surveys to monitor patient satisfaction, and the Dental Directors periodically
audit patient charts and provide advice to the general dentists and dental
specialists employed by the PAs. See Item 1 "Business - Services and Operations
Management Information Systems" and " - Dental Directors."

         SCHEDULING. The Company implements patient scheduling systems at each
of the Managed Dental Centers. These systems enable the Company to devise daily
patient schedules that maximize the efficiency of the dental professionals.
Patient visits are scheduled in small time increments based upon the Company's
knowledge of the time required for each type of dental procedure. In addition,
the office hours of each Managed Dental Center are tailored to meet the needs of
its patient population. The Company believes that its scheduling systems result
in more efficient patient flow, thereby increasing productivity and patient
volume.

         ADVERTISING AND MARKETING. The Company assists in developing and
implementing customized marketing plans tailored to the specific characteristics
of each Dental Center's market. Such marketing may include the use of local
radio, TV and print advertising, and other marketing promotions. In some
instances the Company seeks to promote brand name recognition of its Managed
Dental Centers through use of regional brand names owned by the P.A.s. For
example, in Florida, several of the Company's Managed Dental Centers use the
name "Advanced Dental Care." In some cases, Dental Centers are marketed under
the names used by the practices prior to their affiliation with the Company to
take advantage of the practices' existing market position. Most states,
including Florida and Michigan, place certain restrictions on the ability of
corporations such as the Company to provide advertising and marketing services
to the professional associations or corporations organized in such states. Many
states, prohibit dentists from using, except in limited circumstances,
advertising which includes any name other than their own, or from advertising in
any manner that is likely to lead a person to believe that a nondentist is
engaged in the practice of dentistry. Florida law also requires all advertising
to identify the dentist who assumes total responsibility for the advertisement
and may not include the name of a person who is neither actually involved in the
practice of dentistry at the advertised location nor an owner of the practice
being advertised. Similarly, Michigan law requires that the name of each dentist
performing services at a location be clearly disclosed by sign or lettering at
such location. In addition, Michigan and Florida law imposes additional
restrictions on advertisements by specialists.

                                       3
<PAGE>
         PURCHASING AND DISTRIBUTION. The size of the Company's network enables
the Company to purchase dental supplies, laboratory services, equipment,
insurance, management information systems, advertising and office furniture at
reduced costs. Dental equipment supplies are obtained by the Company as directed
by the P.A.s and administrative supplies are purchased by the Company pursuant
to high-volume supply contracts with favorable price terms. The Company monitors
inventory levels and adjusts distribution to reduce carrying costs on inventory.

         FINANCIAL SERVICES

         THIRD-PARTY PAYOR MANAGEMENT. The Company examines various factors to
determine which third-party payors' assignments it will recommend at each
Managed Dental Center. Factors considered by the Company in making this
recommendation include the types of procedures that are generally performed at
the Managed Dental Centers, the geographic area served by the particular plan
and the demographic characteristics of the typical plan participants. Some
element of managed care is present at most Managed Dental Centers, although
generally not as the primary source of revenues. The Company assists the Managed
Dental Centers in the negotiation of contracts with third-party payors. As a
result of its size, the Company is often able to negotiate better terms for its
Managed Dental Centers with third- party payors than would be available to solo
practitioners or small group dental practices.

         ACCOUNTING SERVICES. The Company provides Managed Dental Centers with a
full range of accounting services, including preparation of financial
statements, management of accounts payable, oversight of accounts receivable,
verification of purchase orders, payroll administration and tax services. In
addition, the Company assists each Managed Dental Center in the preparation of
operating and financial budgets.

         THIRD-PARTY FINANCING. The Company has contracts with multiple
non-recourse third-party financing companies that enable the Managed Dental
Centers to offer various third-party financing options directly to their
patients. The Company is not a party to the financing agreements. At the time a
patient receives dental treatment and upon credit approval of the patient by the
third-party financing company, the P.A. is paid at varying discounts to the full
price of its services, based upon financing terms. The financing company is
subsequently responsible for all billing to and collection from the patient and
has no recourse for payment against the Company or the Managed Dental Center.

         From December 31, 1998 through March 11, 1999, the Company has entered
into Management Agreements involving three Managed Dental Centers in Michigan.


MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

         At December 31, 1998, the Company had entered into Management
Agreements with 45 P.A.s to manage 78 centers pursuant to which the Company or
its assigns are the exclusive business managers, to the extent allowable by law,
of the associated Managed Dental Centers. Since December 31, 1998, the Company
has entered into Management Agreements with three P.A.s to manage three centers.
Additionally, in February 1999, one P.A. elected to exercise its option to
terminate its Management Agreement. All but three of the Management Agreements
are Standard Management Agreements (described below). The Company plans to
continue to use the Standard Management Agreement to the extent possible as it
enters into arrangements with additional dental practices. However, the terms of
future agreements may differ according to market conditions and the statutory
and regulatory requirements of the particular state in which the dental practice
is located. The Company had previously entered into three management agreements
with respect to six additional dental practices on terms different from those of
the Standard Management Agreements. Descriptions of these Management Agreements
are set forth below.

         Under the Standard Management Agreements, the Company provides
comprehensive administrative and business services and support to the P.A.s. The
Company, among other things, (i) assists in the identification of areas in which
the performance of the Managed Dental Centers and their dental professionals can
be improved to increase revenues and operating income, (ii) provides, maintains
and repairs all offices, equipment and furnishings, (iii) employs all
non-professional personnel necessary for the operation of the Managed Dental
Centers, (iv) provides payroll services, (v) implements standard business
systems and procedures and provides or facilitates systems and efficiencies
training, (vi) orders all general business inventory and supplies required by
the Managed Dental Centers and handles accounts payable, (vii) establishes and
maintains information systems and provides accounting and bookkeeping services,
(viii) monitors compliance with rules and regulations applicable to the Managed
Dental Center business, (ix) provides marketing assistance and (x) provides
assistance in billing and collections, all to the extent permitted by law.

         The Standard Management Agreements provide that the P.A.s are
responsible for, among other things, (i) employing and supervising all
Affiliated Dentists and dental hygienists, (ii) complying with all laws, rules
and regulations relating to Affiliated Dentists and dental hygienists, (iii)
participating in quality assurance/utilization review programs, (iv) maintaining
proper dental patient records, (v) obtaining and maintaining professional
liability insurance with limits of not less than $300,000 per claim and
aggregate policy limits of not less than $1.0 million and (vi) any other
requirements to carry out the practice of dentistry.

         Under the terms of the Standard Management Agreements, the P.A.s are
required to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Company from and against any
and all claims from negligent or intentional acts or omissions, including the
performance of dental services, by the P.A.s and their employees. The Company is
required to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the P.A.s from and against any
and all claims resulting from negligent or intentional acts or omissions by the
Company.
                                       6
<PAGE>
         As compensation for its management services under the Standard
Management Agreements, the Company earns a management fee equal to 67% - 74% of
the Net Collected Revenues earned by the P.A.. The Company pays all of the
operating and nonoperating expenses incurred by the P.A.s except for (i)
salaries and benefits to the Affiliated Dentists and dental hygienists, (ii)
licensing fees paid to the Company, (iii) debt and asset carrying costs related
to the acquisition of the dental practice, and (iv) any other direct cost to the
P.A. not covered under the Standard Management Agreement.

         The Standard Management Agreements have 25-year terms, with automatic
annual one-year renewals thereafter, and are terminable by either party for
cause or upon the insolvency of the other party. In the event of a material
default by the P.A. or the P.A. owner, the Company has the option to cause the
sale of all of the stock or all of the assets of the P.A. to a licensed dentist
designated by the Company. In such an event, the P.A. owner receives the
proceeds of the sale, subject in certain cases to preset formulas, less any
amounts owed as a result of the default. The P.A. or the P.A. owner may
terminate the agreement without cause provided the practice is sold to a dentist
acceptable to the Company. The Standard Management Agreements provide that they
shall be amended by the parties in the event of any regulatory matters affecting
the validity of the Standard Management Agreement in a manner necessary to bring
the Standard Management Agreements into compliance.

         During the terms of the Standard Management Agreements, the Company and
the P.A.s agree not to disclose certain confidential and proprietary information
regarding the other. The P.A.s are required under the Standard Management
Agreements to use their best efforts to enter into and enforce written
employment agreements with each of their professional employees containing
covenants not to compete with the P.A. in a specified geographic area for a
specified period of time, generally from one to three years after termination of
the employment agreement. The employment agreements generally provide for
injunctive relief in the event of a breach of the covenant not to compete.
However, the P.A.s ability to enforce such covenants is uncertain.

         One P.A. in Florida is party to a Management Agreement substantially in
the same form as the Standard Management Agreement, except that (i) the P.A.
pays the Company a monthly management fee of 55% of its net profits (defined as
total collected revenues on a cash basis less any patient refunds and less
practice expenses, including nonprofessional staff expenses), and (ii) this
agreement expires in 2003. In addition, the agreement provides that the P.A. has
the option, during the period commencing on October 20, 1998 and ending 90 days
thereafter, of terminating the agreement by paying to the Company a
"termination" fee plus any accrued management fees. The P.A. elected to
terminate the Management Agreement effective February 1, 1999. The Company
earned management fees from this P.A. of $120,000, $121,900 and $136,000 for the
years ending December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively.

         Another P.A. in Florida is party to a Management Agreement
substantially in the same form as the Standard Management Agreement, except that
(i) the P.A. pays to the Company a monthly management fee of 50% of its net
profits (defined as total collected revenues on a cash basis less any patient
refunds and less practice expenses, including non-professional staff expenses)
and (ii) this agreement expires in 2003. In January 1999, the stockholders of
this P.A. sold their shares to another licensed dentist. The new stockholder
executed a standard Management Agreement in January, 1999 on behalf of the P.A..

                                       7

         In July 1997, the Company entered into a global Management Agreement to
manage four Managed Dental Centers in Michigan substantially in the same form as
the Standard Management Agreement, except that it expires in July 2005. The
Company subcontracts the day-to-day management functions of the four Michigan
Dental Centers subject to this agreement to an affiliate of the owner of the
applicable P.A.s. As a result, the Company pays a fee to such subcontractor
equal to 80% of the net profits of these Managed Dental Centers (as defined in
the Administrative Service Subcontract Agreement with such subcontractor), after
certain adjustments. In February 1999, the Company purchased the tangible assets
of these Dental Centers and the Management Agreements were converted to Standard
Management Agreements with a 25-year term.

         The Company intends to continue to devote a substantial amount of time
and resources to identifying suitable dental practices and to negotiating
Management Agreements with such practices. Identifying suitable dental practices
and negotiating Management Agreements with such practices can be a lengthy and
costly process. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
identify suitable Managed Dental Center candidates, or that Management
Agreements will be entered into with respect to such candidates on terms
favorable to and within time frames desired by the Company, or at all. The
foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results
of operations or financial condition and the Company's ability to continue its
expansion strategy. Moreover, in connection with entering into such Management
Agreements, the Company may be required to incur indebtedness or assume other
liabilities which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
operating results, liquidity and capital resources, or may cause the Company to
issue shares of its capital stock which could result in dilution to
stockholders.

         The integration of Managed Dental Centers into the Company's network is
a difficult, costly and time consuming process which, among other things,
requires the Company to attract and retain competent and experienced management
and administrative personnel and to implement and integrate reporting and
tracking systems, management information systems and other operating systems. In
addition, such integration may require, among other things, the opening of new
facilities or the expansion of existing facilities, the expansion of accounting
controls and procedures and the elimination of duplicate personnel. There can be
no assurance that substantial unanticipated problems, costs or delays associated
with such integration efforts or with such Managed Dental Centers will not arise
or continue. Any such problems, costs or delays could cause the Company's
financial results in the fiscal quarter including and subsequent to the
execution of the relevant Management Agreements to be materially lower than
financial analysts' expectations, which likely would cause a decline, perhaps
substantial, in the market price of the Common Stock. In particular, the
Company's expenses related to any new Managed Dental Center and, accordingly,
the integration of such Managed Dental Center may have a temporary or sustained
negative impact on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully
integrate new Managed Dental Centers in a timely manner or at all, or that any
new Managed Dental Center will have a positive impact on the Company's results
of operations and financial condition.

         The success of the Company will depend in part on the Company's ability
to effectively manage an increasing number of Managed Dental Centers, some of
which are expected to be located in markets geographically distant from markets
in which the Company presently operates. The addition of Managed Dental Centers
may impair the Company's ability to efficiently and successfully provide
management services to existing Managed Dental Centers and to manage and
supervise adequately the 
                                       8
<PAGE>
Company's employees. Until 1998, the Company had little experience in managing
more than 20 Managed Dental Centers, and the Company's results of operations and
financial condition could be materially adversely affected if it is unable to do
so effectively.

         The Company's growth will require that substantial capital investment
and adequate financing be available to the Company. Capital is needed for (i)
the acquisition by the Company of the non-dental assets of dental practices,
(ii) entering into Management Agreements, (iii) the integration of operations of
dental practices, (iv) the purchase of additional equipment and technology, and
(v) loans to P.A.s to purchase the dental assets of dental practices. The
Company believes that the net proceeds from its public offering, cash flow from
operations and borrowings available under the Company's existing credit facility
will be adequate to meet the Company's anticipated capital needs through 1999,
although there can be no assurance to that effect. After 1999, the Company may
be required to obtain financing through additional borrowings or the issuance of
additional equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to obtain such financing or that, if available, such financing will
be on terms acceptable to the Company. Any inability of the Company to obtain
suitable financing could cause the Company to limit or otherwise modify its
expansion strategy, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations and financial condition.

LICENSE AGREEMENTS

         As of December 31, 1998, seventy-one of the Managed Dental Centers had
entered into short form license agreements and seven Managed Dental Centers
entered into long form license agreements with the Company (collectively, the
"License Agreements"). The long form license agreements generally have terms of
five years, with automatic five-year renewal terms, while the short form license
agreements have terms that are coterminous with the related Management
Agreements. In consideration for the payment of a monthly license fee, which has
generally ranged from $600 to $1,200, the licensee is entitled to identify its
Dental Center as a member of the Company's network, participate in marketing
programs, utilize the Company's discounted purchasing capabilities, and use one
or more of the Company's service marks, logo types and commercial symbols
(collectively, the "Licensed Symbols"). The long form license agreements also
provide for a monthly advertising fee of $1,000 which, if collected would be
used for general marketing, advertising and promotion of the Company's network
and the Licensed Symbols. The Company has not collected any such monthly
advertising fees and does not intend to do so in the future. The manner in which
the licensee intends to use the Licensed Symbols must be approved in advance by
the Company.

         The short form license agreements terminate immediately upon the
termination of the related Management Agreement, and termination is governed by
the provisions thereof. The Company may terminate the long form license
agreements upon cancellation of, or failure to renew, the lease for the premises
of the related Dental Center, the bankruptcy of the associated licensee or upon
the occurrence of certain other events set forth in the License Agreement. The
long form licensees may terminate their license agreements for cause at any time
or without cause during the 30-day period commencing on the first anniversary of
the execution of the agreement. Any other termination by the long form licensee
constitutes a breach of the agreement.

DENTAL DIRECTORS

         The Company divides the geographic areas in which it operates into
regions, each of which is under the supervision of an Affiliated Dentist (each,
a "Dental Director"). At December 31, 1998, there were seven regions and nine
Dental Directors, each employed by, or owners of, the P.A.s within their region.
The Company has added two regions and four Dental Directors since December 31,
1998. The Company expects that additional regions and Dental Directors will be
added by the P.A.s as the Company enters into Management Agreements with
additional P.A.s in new locations.

         The primary purpose of the Dental Directors is to promote the provision
of high quality dental care and to refine operating efficiencies at the Managed
Dental Centers. Dental Directors continually monitor and evaluate the
performance of the Affiliated Dentists and the Managed Dental Centers within
their region by identifying operational inefficiencies and implementing
solutions to address these inefficiencies. Each Dental Director performs
periodic spot checks in which the performance of each Managed Dental Center is
scrutinized in detail. The Dental Directors also assist the P.A.s in their
region with the hiring, training and supervision of dental professionals. The
Company believes that close relationships among the Dental Directors, the P.A.s
they supervise, and the Company allows for the identification of specific
inefficiencies, the quick remediation of such inefficiencies and the realization
of the benefits produced by the Company's management approach.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION

         The dental industry is regulated extensively at both the state and
federal levels. Regulatory oversight includes, but is not limited to,
considerations of fee-splitting, corporate practice of dentistry, anti-kickback
and anti-referral legislation and state insurance regulation. Although we
believe that the operations of the Company comply in all material respects with
the laws to which they are subject, there can be no assurance that a review of
our business relationships by courts or other regulatory authorities would not
result in determinations that could prohibit or otherwise adversely affect
operations or that the regulatory environment will not change, requiring us to
reorganize, change our methods of reporting revenues and other financial results
or restrict existing or future operations. Any such change could have a material
adverse effect on the new company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.

         NON COMPLIANCE WITH CORPORATE PRACTICE OF DENTISTRY AND FEE SPLITTING
LAWS. The laws of many states prohibit dentists from splitting fees with
non-dentists and prohibit non-dental entities from engaging in the practice of
dentistry or employing dentists to practice dentistry. The laws regarding
fee-splitting and the corporate practice of dentistry and their interpretation
vary from state to state and are enforced by regulatory authorities with broad
discretion. There can be no assurance that the legality of the business or
relationships with affiliated dental practices, or the dentists owning or
employed by such practices, will not be successfully challenged or that the
enforceability of the provisions of any management agreement will not be
limited.

         NONCOMPLIANCE WITH STATE AND FEDERAL FRAUD AND ABUSE, ANTI-KICKBACK AND
ANTI-REFERRAL LAWS. The applicability of federal and state laws relating to
fraud and abuse, kickbacks and referrals to transactions or arrangements in the
health care industry has been the subject of limited judicial interpretations.
There can be no assurance that judicial or administrative authorities will not
find that 
                                       10
<PAGE>
such laws prohibit the manner in which the Company currently operates, which
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition or results of operations. In particular, there can be no assurance
that federal or state laws relating to kickbacks, referrals or fee-splitting
will not be construed as prohibiting the compensation of a dental practice
manager based on a percentage of a managed practice's income or revenues.

         Noncompliance with, or violation of, either the anti-kickback
provisions or restrictions on referrals can result in exclusion from the
Medicare and Medicaid programs as well as civil and criminal penalties. Similar
penalties apply for violations of state law. We make every effort to comply with
the anti-kickback and anti-referral laws. However, if such laws were construed
in a manner that prohibits the operations of the Company or the affiliated
practices, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations
could be materially adversely affected.

         NONCOMPLIANCE WITH STATE INSURANCE LAWS AND REGULATIONS. There are
certain regulatory risks associated with negotiating and administering managed
care and capitation contracts. The application of state insurance laws to
reimbursement arrangements is an unsettled area of law and is subject to
interpretation by regulators with broad discretion. As the Company or the
affiliated dental practices contract with third-party payors for certain
non-fee-for-service arrangements, we may become subject to state insurance laws.
In the event that we are determined to be engaged in the business of insurance,
we could be required either to seek licensure as an insurance company or to
change the form of our relationships with third-party payors and may become
subject to regulatory enforcement actions. In such event, the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially
adversely affected.

         The United States Congress and state legislatures have considered
various types of health care reform, including comprehensive revisions to the
current health care system. It is uncertain what legislative proposals will be
adopted in the future, if any, or what actions federal or state legislatures or
third-party payors may take in anticipation of or in response to any health care
reform proposals or legislation. Health care reform legislation adopted by
Congress or the legislatures of states in which we do business, downward
pressure on reimbursement amounts paid by governmental payors, dependence on the
appropriations process for payment by such payors, as well as changes in federal
and state regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.

INSURANCE

         The Company's business entails inherent risk of liability. The
Affiliated Dentists and dental hygienists employed by the P.A.s are involved in
the delivery of health care services to the public and accordingly, such
individuals, the P.A.s and the Company are exposed to the risk of professional
liability claims. Claims of this nature, if successful, could result in
substantial damage awards to the claimants that may exceed the limits of any
applicable insurance coverage. Insurance against losses related to claims of
this type can be expensive and varies widely from state to state. The Company is
indemnified under the Management Agreements for claims against the Company
arising from the performance of medical and dental services provided by the
P.A.s. Successful malpractice claims, however, could have an adverse effect on
the Company's profitability. The P.A.s and the Affiliated Dentists and other
dental professionals they employ maintain professional liability insurance with
limits 
                                       11
<PAGE>
of not less than $300,000 per claim and with aggregate policy limits of not less
than $1.0 million per dentist. The Company is a named insured in most cases. The
Company does not maintain separate liability insurance. While the Company
believes that the foregoing provides adequate liability insurance coverage,
there can be no assurance that a future claim or claims will not be successful
or, if successful, will not exceed the limits of available insurance coverage or
that such coverage will continue to be available at acceptable costs and on
favorable terms.

COMPETITION

         The dental practice management segment of the dental services industry
is highly competitive and is expected to become increasingly competitive. The
primary bases of competition between dental practice management companies are
management expertise and experience, the elements of its operating strategy, the
opportunity for career enhancement of potential associated dentists and other
dental professionals, the size of the dental care network, the sophistication of
management information systems, liquidity, the terms of the management
agreements and name recognition. The Company currently competes with other
dental practice management companies in its existing markets, including Coast
Dental Services, Inc., Monarch Dental, American Dental Partners, and Castle
Dental Centers, Inc. There are also a number of dental practice management
companies currently operating in other parts of the country which may enter the
Company's existing markets in the future. Many of such competitors and potential
competitors have substantially greater financial resources than the Company,
have established large dental practice networks, or otherwise enjoy competitive
advantages which may make it difficult for the Company to compete against them
or enter into additional Management Agreements on terms acceptable to the
Company. In addition, as the Company seeks to expand its operations into new
markets, it is likely to face competition from dental practice management
companies which already have established a strong presence in such markets.

         The business of providing dental services is highly competitive in each
of the markets in which the Managed Dental Centers operate or in which
operations are contemplated. The primary bases of such competition are quality
of care and reputation, marketing exposure, convenience and traffic flow of
location, relationships with managed care entities, appearance and usefulness of
facilities and equipment, price of services and hours of operation. The
Affiliated Dentists compete with other dentists who maintain single or satellite
offices, as well as with dentists who maintain group practices, operate in
multiple offices or are members of competing dental practice management
networks. Many of those dentists have established practices and reputations in
their markets. In addition to competing against established practices for
patients, the Dental Centers compete with such practices in the retention and
recruitment of general dentists, specialists and hygienists to staff the Dental
Centers. If the availability of dentists begins to decline in the Company's
existing or targeted markets, it may become increasingly difficult to attract
and retain the dental professionals to staff the Dental Centers. There can be no
assurance that the Dental Centers will be able to compete effectively with such
other practices.

         As a result of the business combination with Gentle Dental Service
Corporation, the combined companies represent one of the largest in the industry
based upon practices under management. Since the new company will be in
different markets, this will result in more local competition than the Company
has experienced in the past.

SERVICE MARKS

         The Company has no registered services marks, trademarks, service
names, tradenames, or logos.

EMPLOYEES

         The Company has entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party
co-employer pursuant to which the majority of the Company's administrative and
support staff located in the Managed Dental Centers as well as the Company's
corporate office management and staff are co-employed. In certain cases on a
temporary basis, the Company will employ the administrative staff directly until
the co-employment arrangement is established. At December 31, 1998, the Company
employed or co-employed 462 persons, consisting of 228 dental assistants, 196
dental office staff, and 38 executive and administrative staff. In addition, the
majority of the P.A.s have entered into an agreement with the co-employer
pursuant to which such P.A. and the co-employer co-employ all professional staff
(all co-employees of the Company and the P.A.s are referred to hereinafter as
the "Co-Employees"). At December 31, 1998, such P.A.s, in the aggregate,
employed or co-employed 229 dental professionals, consisting of 140 dentists and
89 dental hygienists. The Company or the P.A.s, as the case may be, are
responsible for the hiring, retention, salary and bonus determination, job
performance-related training and other similar matters affecting co-employees
while the co-employer is responsible for (i) payroll administration, including
recordkeeping, payroll processing, making payroll tax deposits, reporting
payroll taxes and related matters, (ii) risk management, including on-site
safety inspections, monitoring, training and workers' compensation claim
management and administration, (iii) administering benefit plans and (iv) human
resource consulting and expertise on other human resource issues. The agreements
with the co-employer are terminable by either party without cause on 30 days
written notice, or for cause on 24 hours written notice. See Item 1 "Business -
Services and Operations - Human Resource Management." The Company is not
expected to change its co-employee agreement through 1999.

ITEM 2.           PROPERTIES

         At December 31, 1998, the P.A.s, or in some cases the Company, leased
between 1,200 and 17,000 square feet of office space for each of the Managed
Dental Centers. Rental payments for a leased Managed Dental Center range from
approximately $18,000 per annum to $169,000 per annum. The Company plans to
continue to lease rather than purchase space for the Managed Dental Centers to
preserve the Company's available capital. The Company intends to add Managed
Dental Centers to its network, which will result in additional office space
under lease. See Item 13 "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."

         The Company leases approximately 7,000 square feet of office space in
Sarasota, Florida for its corporate headquarters at an annual rental of
approximately $86,000. This lease expires in April 2002 and the Company believes
the facility is adequate for its current needs or it will be able to locate
additional space, as necessary, under similar terms.

<PAGE>

ITEM 3.           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         There are no material pending legal proceedings involving the Company.
Affiliated Dentists and P.A.s are from time to time subject to malpractice
claims. To the Company's knowledge, there are no material malpractice claims
pending against any Affiliated Dentist or P.A.. Any such proceedings or claims,
if successful, could result in damage awards exceedings, perhaps substantially,
applicable insurance coverage.


ITEM 4.           SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS


         On March 11, 1999, the Company held a Special Meeting of Stockholders
to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve and adopt the Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization and Merger, dated as of October 15, 1998, as amended as of
February 3, 1999 and February 9, 1999, by and among InterDent, Inc., Wisdom
Holdings Corp. I, Inc., Wisdom Holdings Corp. II, Inc., Gentle Dental Service
Corporation and the Company, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by that agreement.

         The proposal was approved based upon the following votes:

            Approve                            5,812,708
            Disapprove                             8,850

The number of stockholders of record of the Company's Common Stock on March 10,
1999 was approximately 66.

The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 50,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01
per share (the "Preferred Stock").

The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock.
The Company is subject to certain loan covenants containing certain provisions
restricting the Company's ability to pay dividends.

On March 12, 1999, based upon shareholder approval on March 11, 1999, the
Company completed the previously announced merger with Gentle Dental Service
Corporation ("GDSC"). In the completed combination, the Company and GDSC, each
became a wholle-owned subsidiary of InterDent, Inc. ("InterDent"), a new
Delaware corporation. In the merger, each share of the Company's 7,031,187 total
shares of outstanding common stock automatically converted into 1.67 shares of
common stock of InterDent. Also, the Company filed Report Form 15-12G on March
12, 1999, incorporated herein by reference, to terminate its registration under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

         Managed Dental Centers. Ten Management Agreements were also revised to
         change the base for the Company's management fee from a percentage of
         net profits at each P.A. to a percentage of net patient revenues from
         each P.A.. Accordingly, prior to these revisions to such 12 Management
         Agreements, all non-professional expenses of the Managed Dental Centers
         and related revenues were reflected in each P.A.'s financial
         statements.

ITEM  7.          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 
                  AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Dental Care Alliance, Inc. ("DCA") was formed on October 23, 1996 to
effect a reorganization among DCA, Golden Care Holdings ("GCH"), the predecessor
which was incorporated in 1993, and its majority owned subsidiaries,
(collectively, the "Company"). The Company is a dental practice management
company providing management and licensing services to dental practices in
Florida, Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Indiana. As of December 31, 1998,
the Company provided management and licensing services to 78 Managed Dental
Centers, 36 of which are located in Florida, 22 in Pennsylvania, nine in
Michigan, eight in Georgia, and three in Indiana. Management services include
financial, accounting, billing, training, efficiency and productivity
enhancement, recruiting, team building, marketing, advertising, purchasing,
collection and other services, as well as the provision of management and
administrative personnel. Licensing services include marketing, advertising and
purchasing.

         With respect to management services it provides to dental practices,
the Company enters into Management Agreements with P.A.s that own the practices.
The Company commenced operations in November 1993 by providing management and
licensing services to five dental practices located in Sarasota, Palmetto,
Largo, Port Charlotte and Venice, Florida. In 1994, the Company entered into its
first Management Agreement for a newly developed practice located in Englewood,
Florida and entered into a Management Agreement to manage an additional existing
practice in Fort Myers, Florida. In 1995, the Company entered into four new
Management Agreements, two of which were with respect to newly developed
practices located in Kissimmee and Bradenton, Florida and the remaining two of

                                       18
<PAGE>
which were with respect to existing practices located in Sarasota and Port
Richey, Florida. The Company entered into four additional Management Agreements
in 1996 to manage practices located in Orlando, Tampa, Ocoee and Clearwater,
Florida. In addition, the Company terminated its Management Agreements with
respect to the Palmetto and Venice Managed Dental Centers in 1995 and with
respect to the Port Richey Managed Dental Center in 1996. In 1997, the Company
entered into 17 additional Management Agreements to manage five practices in
Michigan and 12 in Florida. In 1998, the Company entered into 49 additional
Management Agreements to manage 12 in Florida, four in Michigan, eight in
Georgia, 22 in Pennsylvania and three in Indiana.

         Prior to October 1996, the management fee paid to the Company pursuant
to the Management Agreements had been equal to a percentage ranging from 50-90%
of the net profits of the individual Managed Dental Centers, as defined in the
Management Agreements, plus reimbursement to the Company of its non-professional
expenses. Effective October 1996, the Company revised all of its 12 then
existing Management Agreements. Ten of these agreements were revised such that
the Company earns management fees based on 74% of total net patient revenues and
payment is based on cash collected minus any patient refunds ("Net Collected
Revenue") and the Company assumes responsibility for the payment of the
non-professional expenses of the Managed Dental Centers (the "Standard
Management Agreements"). Through December 31, 1998, the remaining two Management
Agreements continue to have management fee structures based upon 50-55% of the
net profit, as defined, of the two Managed Dental Centers.

         The Company will seek to cause future Management Agreements to be on
terms substantially similar to those of the Standard Management Agreements. The
method by which the Company manages the revenue and profitability of Managed
Dental Centers is fundamentally the same, regardless of whether the Management
Agreement with any particular P.A. provides for a management fee based upon net
profits or net patient revenue. In the "net profits" type of Management
Agreement, both the P.A. owner and the Company share proportionally in the
favorable impact of any initiatives. In the "net patient revenues" type of
Management Agreement, the cost management benefits resulting from such
initiatives accrue to the party responsible for such costs and both parties
share proportionally in revenue enhancements. Period to period comparisons of
the Company's results of operations set forth below should be considered in
light of the significant changes in the Company's growth and in recognition of
revenues and expenses resulting from the revisions to the Management Agreements
in October 1996.

         All patient revenues are billed to patients and providers under the
authority and identification numbers of the individual P.A.s. Patient revenues
and receivables are recorded on the accounts of the P.A.s. Funds are dispersed
initially to pay all the professional costs of the P.A.s. Thereafter, funds are
disbursed to the Company under the terms of the Management Agreements. Any
remaining funds are retained by the P.A. If funds are insufficient to pay the
Company under the terms of the relevant Management Agreement, a payable from the
P.A. to the Company is recorded on the Company's books.

         The Company also enters into license agreements with each Dental Center
pursuant to which the Company provides licensing and advertising services to the
Dental Centers. In return for such services, the Company has collected fees
generally ranging from $600 to $1,200 per month from each Managed Dental Center.

         Historically, in connection with the execution of a Management
Agreement, a P.A. has typically acquired both the dental and the non-dental
assets of a Managed Dental Center. The Company has either made loans to the
acquiring P.A. or has assisted the P.A. in obtaining third-party financing to
purchase such assets. Since November 1997, the Company has begun acquiring
certain of the non-dental assets of Managed Dental Centers while the P.A.s
acquires the dental assets of such Managed Dental Centers. In addition, due to
changing market conditions, the Company has begun compensating P.A.s for the
execution of Management Agreements.

         The Company from time to time has made loans to newly formed P.A.s with
which it has entered into Management Agreements to purchase the dental assets of
the related dental practices. In return the P.A.s execute promissory notes to
the Company in the amount of such loans. At December 31, 1998, the total
outstanding balance of such loans was $733,694. The notes underlying such loans
generally have terms ranging from two to ten years, bear interest at rates
ranging between 8.5% and 18.5% and are secured by the assets of the related
dental practice. The P.A.s to which such loans are made are newly formed and
have no assets other than the assets of the dental practices being acquired and
no liabilities other than the liabilities relating to the loans.

          The Company from time to time makes working capital advances to
individual P.A.s, although it is not obligated contractually or otherwise to
make such advances. The extension of loans and advances to the P.A.s by the
Company is not considered upon entering into Management Agreements with the
Company. Extension of any such loans or advances is entirely within the
Company's discretion. These advances are due on demand, bear interest at 8 1/2
%, subject to adjustment based on changes in the rates at which the Company may
borrow from its lenders. All advances made to P.A.s are guaranteed by the
relevant P.A. owner or secured with the stock of the P.A., although there is no
independent collateral for these working capital advances. A repayment default
under such advances is also a default under the relevant Management Agreement
which permits the Company, among other things, to liquidate the assets of the
dental practice. At December 31, 1998, the total outstanding balance of such
advances was $4.5 million.

         The P.A.s are current in the payment of their loans or advances and the
Company believes that the financial condition of the P.A.s to which it has made
loans or advances is satisfactory. Prior to making any loan or advance, the
Company analyzes the collectibility of the receivables resulting from such loans
or advances based on the projected cash flow of the relevant P.A. and the
estimated fair market value of the assets to be owned or owned by such P.A. The
Company, through its obligations under the Management Agreements, is able to
assess on a periodic basis the collectibility of its receivables since it has
access to the billing and collection information relating to the P.A.s' patient
receivables and operational cash flow, and evaluate on a periodic basis
outstanding receivables versus accounts payable and revenue trends. Accordingly,
the Company is in a position to quickly assess the ability of each P.A. to meet
its obligations under the notes and advances. As a result, the Company is able
to react quickly in the event that there is a material change in the
creditworthiness of any of the P.A.s. The Company also analyzes any historical
trends of the P.A.s relating to bad debts or the inability of the P.A.s to
generate collectible patient receivables. The Company assesses the guaranty of
its P.A. owners for financial stability and creditworthiness through periodic
reviews which include analysis of credit reports, bank references, personal and
business tax returns and personal financial statements. In addition, the
reputation of each P.A. owner in the business community and the length and
quality of the P.A.s' relationship with the Company are examined by the Company
to assess the P.A. 
                                       20
<PAGE>
owners as guarantors of the loans and advances. The Company may modify the terms
of Management Agreements prospectively if the P.A. does not perform at a level
sufficient to repay the advances.

         None of the P.A. owners are officers, directors or employees of the
Company. At December 31, 1998, there were nine different P.A. owners none of
whom own 5% or more of the Company's Common Stock.

         The P.A.s are primarily liable for repayment of the notes and advances
to the Company with the P.A. owners being secondarily liable for repayment under
the notes and advances. The P.A.s and P.A. owners bear the primary risk under
the notes and advances. The Company also bears the risk of non-payment to the
extent that the assets of P.A.s or P.A. owners are insufficient to pay the
outstanding balances under the notes or advances upon any default.

         The P.A.s take reserves against, and, when appropriate, write-off bad
debts on, patient receivables. As of December 31, 1998, reserves for bad debts
on patient receivables aggregated to approximately $1.2 million. To date, there
have been no defaults under, or write-offs in connection with, notes receivable
from or advances to P.A.s, although there can be no assurance that there will be
no such defaults or write-offs in the future. Although there has to date been no
default or material delinquency under the notes or advances, the Company has
established a reserve for such defaults in the amount of $149,000 as of December
31, 1998. The Company will consider establishing reserves against such defaults
should future circumstances demonstrate the need for such reserves.

         The Management Agreements for P.A.s that have acquisition loans from
the Company and for most P.A.s with working capital advances provide that the
P.A.s must meet their repayment obligations under any outstanding indebtedness,
whether owed to the Company or any third party, prior to paying any management
fees. A default under any such obligation is by its terms a default under the
Management Agreement. In the event of such a default, the Company or its
designee is entitled to purchase the assets and liabilities or the capital stock
of the relevant P.A. In such event, the Company would evaluate whether, at its
option, to have another P.A. owner or other licensed dentist assume control of
the practice and continue to generate management fees or to liquidate the assets
of such P.A.

         The Company does not consolidate the balance sheets or the operating
results (including revenue and expenses) of the dental practices under the
Management Agreements since these revenues and expenses are earned and incurred
by the P.A.s, not the Company. The Company has recorded goodwill and other
intangible assets in cases where the Company has paid a P.A. in consideration
for a modification to an existing Management Agreement or entering into new
Management Agreements. Where the Company acquires the assets of another
management company, such a transaction constitutes a business combination and
the Company recognizes the related goodwill, if any, in accordance with the
purchase method of accounting.

         Prior to October 1996, the majority of the Company's operations were
performed through limited liability companies. Except for the period from
January through September 1994 with respect to one of the Company's predecessors
in interest, the Company's statements of operations prior to October 1996 do not
include a provision for income taxes. Included in the Company's tax accruals are
amounts related to establishing a deferred tax liability for book/tax
differences arising from its reorganization from limited liability corporation
to C corporation status.

         As part of its business combination with Gentle Dental Service
Corporation ("GDSC"), the Company has taken certain measures intended to avoid
Year 2000 problems. In evaluating the Year 2000 readiness of its information
technology systems, the Company has taken certain preventive measures. In
November 1997, the Company installed a new back-end (corporate office)
information technology system specifically designed to avoid Year 2000 concerns.
The Company continues to update and enhance this system with Year 2000 -
compliant software. The front-end (dental office) information technology systems
vary from office to office, and many of such systems are not Year 2000
compliant. The Company intends to take advantage of GDSC's in-house management
information systems staff to resolve these front-end deficiencies. In addition,
it is expected that the new company will integrate an entirely new front-end
package to deal with these deficiencies.

         There are also potential Year 2000 problems associated with
non-information technology systems of certain entities with whom the Company
conducts business-related activities: its banks, a co-employer and entities from
whom the Company receives reimbursements, such as insurance companies and state
agencies. The banks and the co-employer have indicated that they have taken or
will take steps to ensure that their systems are Year 2000 compliant. The
Company does not believe that failure of these parties successfully to rectify
Year 2000 problems will materially adversely affect its business, except to the
extent that third party reimbursements are delayed as a result of the Year 2000
problems.

         The Company estimates its cost of Year 2000 compliance will aggregate
approximately $500,000.

         The most reasonably likely worst case scenario for the Company
resulting from Year 2000 issues are as follows: billing and cash collection will
be delayed if the Company is unable to deliver information technology-based
billings to patients and receive information technology-based reimbursements
from third parties. If Year 2000 problems were to effect the Company's front-end
systems, it would be necessary to bill patients based upon manual calculation,
which could delay cash flows for up to several months. If this problem were to
occur, the Company would attempt to collect payments from patients at the time
of service.

         The Company has outlined a contingency plan to deal with potential Year
2000 problems. First, it has obtained an alternative Year 2000 compliant
front-end system, which is now being tested, in the event there are unforeseen
problems with installing the front-end system currently utilized by GDSC. In
addition, the Company is maintaining some availability under its loan agreement
in anticipation of any cash flow shortages resulting from Year 2000 problems.

SEASONALITY

            The Company historically has experienced seasonal fluctuations in
its quarterly revenue. Specifically, the first and fourth quarters reflect the
highest patient volume, while the third quarter has traditionally had the lowest
patient volume. The Managed Dental Centers in Florida have traditionally
experienced increased patient visits in November through March due to an
increase in the population base during these months, while patient visits
decrease during the summer. Since July 1997, the Company executed Management
Agreements with Managed Dental Centers in Michigan, Georgia, Indiana and
Pennsylvania. The Company expects that the seasonality in Florida and Georgia
will be offset to some extent by fewer seasonal fluctuations in Michigan,
Indiana and Pennsylvania.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Since its inception and until the Company's public offering on November
4, 1997, the Company financed its operations primarily through internal cash
flow, the sale of equity securities and commercial bank borrowings. Net cash
provided by operations for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998 was
$270,121, $557,767 and $1.3 million, respectively. Net cash provided by
operating activities for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998
consisted primarily of net income, adjusted for non-cash expenses, and increases
in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, offset by increases in consulting
and license fee receivables and management fees receivable.

         Cash used in investing activities for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1997 and 1998 was $504,312, $2.5 million and $22.3 million, respectively.
For the year ended December 31, 1996, the investing activities were primarily
related to organizational costs associated with the formation of the Company in
October 1996 through a reorganization of its predecessor entities. For the year
ended December 31, 1997, the investing activities included $1.2 million related
primarily to the purchase of Management Agreements for the four Michigan Managed
Dental Centers and $613,006 related primarily to the purchase of non-dental
assets for three additional Managed Dental Centers and certain equipment
purchases for the corporate office expansion. For the year ended December 31,
1998, the investing activities include a $3.9 million increase in advances to
P.A.s and $18.4 million related to the purchase of Management Agreements and
property and equipment for the addition of 49 Managed Dental Centers.

         Cash provided by financing activities for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1997 and 1998 was $1.4 million, $21.0 million, and $7.7 million,
respectively. For the year ended December 31, 1996, the financing activities
were primarily related to net proceeds on the Company's issuance of preferred
stock. For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company had $21.2 million in
net proceeds on common stock issuances offset by $167,945 in net repayment of
debt. For the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company increased its long term
debt, net of repayments, by $7.6 million.

                                       26

         In August 1997, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit
(the "Credit Agreement") which provides for an aggregate of $1.2 million. Under
the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company may use up to $600,000 of the
credit line for the purchase of non-dental assets of dental centers provided
that each borrowing is repaid within 45 days of its drawdown. The remaining
$600,000 may be used for general working capital needs. The revolving line of
credit bears interest at 0.75% per annum above the lender's prime rate and is
payable on demand. Interest only is payable monthly. Amounts borrowed pursuant
to the Credit Agreement are secured by a first security interest in most of the
Company's assets, including receivables and equipment. Additionally, any
outstanding balances under the working capital line are guaranteed by the
Company's Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer.

         On May 14, 1998, the Company executed a $15 million Revolving Note with
Nationsbank, N.A. which replaced the Credit Agreement. The Revolving Note is
intended to provide funds for the acquisition and affiliation with dental
practices and working capital uses in a revolving line of credit facility. The
note matures in one year, with annual renewals thereafter. In March 1999, the
bank gave written notice of their intention to renew the Revolving Note for one
additional year under similar terms. The Company and its subsidiaries have
pledged substantially all of their assets as collateral. The note bears interest
at 1.75% over the Eurodollar rate, payable monthly. As of December 31, 1998, the
Company had $6.3 million outstanding under the note. The Company is required to
maintain certain financial covenants during the term of the note and as of
December 31, 1998, the Company is in compliance with such covenants.

         The Company has made loans to various P.A.s in connection with the
P.A.s' acquisition of assets of dental practices and has made working capital
advances to various P.A.s for their operations. The loans, which are evidenced
by interest-bearing notes that are payable upon demand and are personally
guaranteed by the P.A. owners.

         The Company intends to enter into additional Management Agreements with
respect to, as well as purchase the non-dental assets of, additional practices.
In addition, the Company may acquire other dental practice management companies,
expend funds to execute new Management Agreements or lend funds to P.A.s to
purchase certain assets. The Company plans to finance these activities through a
combination of the net proceeds of its public offering, cash flow from
operations, bank financing and issuances of Common Stock.

         On November 4, 1997, the Company completed the public offering of
2,000,000 shares of Common Stock at $12 per share resulting in proceeds, net of
underwriter commissions and offering costs, of approximately $21.2 million.
Based upon the Company's anticipated needs for acquisition of non-dental assets
of dental practices, working capital and general corporate purposes, management
believes that the combination of existing cash, cash flow from operations and
available credit lines will be sufficient to meet its capital requirements
through 1999.

         The Company incurred costs of $587,950 in the fourth quarter associated
with the business combination with Gentle Dental Service Corporation. Such costs
relate primarily to professional costs associated with consummating the
transaction. The Company estimates that an additional $1.4 million in expenses
will be incurred and paid in the first quarter of 1999. Such expenditures will
be funded from operational cashflow and draws against the line of credit.

the past nor is it expected to have a significant impact in the foreseeable
future.

ITEM 7A.          QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.

                  The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest

ITEM 13. CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

         In 1993, Dr. Matzkin sold four dental practices in Michigan to Dr.
David Ross Johnson, a dental director, for a $237,000 note under which payments
commenced in May 1997. In connection with that sale Profit Dental Management,
Inc., a corporation controlled by Dr. Matzkin, agreed to provide consulting
services to these practices for $18,000 per month until May 1997 and $15,000 per
month thereafter through May 2005. In July 1997, Dental Care Alliance purchased
the right to manage these practices for $846,000 and entered into a global
management agreement pursuant to which it will provide management services to
these practices until 2005. Dental Care Alliance subcontracted the day-to-day
management services to an affiliate of Dr. Johnson, but retains most other
management functions

                                       33

<PAGE>


for which it retains 20% of net profits of these practices, after certain
adjustments, and Dr. Johnson's affiliate is paid 80% of such net profits. Dental
Care Alliance also receives $800 per month from each practice as a licensing
fee.

         In July 1997, Dental Care Alliance entered into a management agreement
with a professional association in Michigan which was controlled by Dr. Matzkin.
As of September 30, 1997, Dr. Matzkin assigned the ownership of the capital
stock and all rights relating thereto to Dr. David Ross Johnson in consideration
for Dr. Johnson's assumption of all obligations to pay for such capital stock
and all obligations relating to such capital stock.

         Certain of the managed dental centers lease their office facilities
from entities controlled by Dr. Matzkin. Such leases terminate at various times
between 2000 and 2004. Managed dental centers and Dental Care Alliance paid rent
pursuant to the leases in the aggregate amount of $193,900 in 1997 and have paid
$144,700 in 1998. Dr. Matzkin also owns certain dental laboratories that perfom
laboratory services for the managed dental centers, primarily relating to the
making of prostheses. In 1997 the amount paid by the managed dental centers to
such laboratories was $133,448 of which $60,000 was advanced by Dental Care
Alliance in 1996 and remains outstanding at December 31, 1998, while the amount
paid for 1998 was $159,551. Dr. Matzkin owns 33.3% of the capital stock of
Equipment Management Services, an equipment leasing company. Certain managed
dental centers have entered into capitalized equipment leases with Equipment
Management Services. Amounts paid by such managed dental centers to Equipment
Management Services pursuant to such leases aggregated approximately $123,000 in
1997 and $94,230 in 1998. Dental Care Alliance believes that such arrangements
are no less favorable to such managed dental centers than could have been
obtained in arms-length transactions with unrelated third parties. In addition,
Dr. Matzkin has personally guaranteed an aggregate of approximately $1.6 million
of indebtedness of certain of the managed dental centers. Dental Care Alliance
is currently negotiating with the lenders to whom Dr. Matzkin has given such
guarantees to release Dr. Matzkin from his obligations thereunder and to cause
Dental Care Alliance to guaranty such obligations.

         Pursuant to a Stockholder's Agreement among Dental Care Alliance and
Dr. Matzkin, Mr. Smith, Mr. Raucci, the SRM 1993 Children's Trust and Crescent
International Holdings, Inc. initially entered into in connection with the sale
of Dental Care Alliance's Series A preferred stock in October 1996, each
stockholder a party thereto received each of the following:

   o   "piggyback" registration rights;

   o   a right of first refusal with respect to a greater than 50% share
       transfer by a stockholder prior to an initial public offering meeting
       certain conditions;

   o   co-sale rights to participate on a pro rata basis in certain resales of
       Dental Care Alliance common stock by other stockholders party to the
       agreement (other than in connection with an initial public offering
       meeting certain conditions;

   o   participation rights with respect to certain issuances of securities by
       Dental Care Alliance made prior to an initial public offering meeting
       certain conditions.

                                       34

<PAGE>

In addition, stockholders party to the agreement who are also directors of
Dental Care Alliance, other than Dr. Matzkin, also were granted demand
registration rights under the Stockholders' Agreement. Mitchell B. Olan has been
granted certain "piggyback" registration rights with respect to an aggregate of
163,080 shares of Dental Care Alliance common stock pursuant to an agreement
with Dental Care Alliance. Pursuant to Dr. Matzkin's employment agreement, upon
termination of his employment for any reason, if Dental Care Alliance's
securities are then publicly traded, Dr. Matzkin has the right to request that
Dental Care Alliance register any or all of Dental Care Alliance common stock
then owned by Dr. Matzkin.

         Upon consummation of the mergers, each affiliate of InterDent,
including the above-mentioned stockholders, will receive, with respect to the
shares issued to such affiliates pursuant to the mergers and the shares issuable
upon exercise of options and warrants held by such affiliates, (a) "piggyback"
registration rights, and (b) one demand registration right per calendar year.
InterDent will, however, be obligated to effect no more than one demand
registration during any calendar year. Upon a request for a demand registration
by any affiliate, all other affiliates will be entitled to participate in such
registration with all other affiliates electing to participate pro rata on the
basis of the number of registrable shares held by each participating affiliate.
Further, the combined company will not be required to cause a registration under
the above-described demand registration rights unless the aggregate offering
price of all registrable shares to be registered pursuant to such demand
registration rights, before deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions
exceeds $5,000,000.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Dental Care Alliance, Inc.


In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements listed in the
index appearing under Item 14 (A) (1) and (2) on page 32 present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Dental Care Alliance, Inc. (the
"Company"), successor to Golden Care Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries at
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

                           DENTAL CARE ALLIANCE, INC.
                   (Successor to Golden Care Holdings, L.C.)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION

         Dental Care Alliance, Inc. ("DCA" or the "Company") was formed on
         October 23, 1996 with a nominal capital contribution, to effect a
         reorganization (the "Reorganization") among DCA, Golden Care Holdings
         L.C. ("GCH"), the predecessor entity, and its majority owned
         subsidiaries Golden Care Network, L.C.("GCN"), and Prophet Management
         L.C. ("PM"). DCA and GCH completed the Reorganization on October 25,
         1996 by transferring substantially all of the assets, liabilities and
         operations of GCH, GCN and PM to DCA. Concurrently, shares of DCA were
         issued in exactly the same proportion as the shareholders of GCH.
         Effective November 4, 1997, the Company completed an Initial public
         offering of its stock. All per share amounts have been adjusted
         retroactively to reflect the stock split completed in anticipation of
         this transaction.

         The Company and its predecessor provide management, consulting and
         licensing services to dental practices in Florida, Michigan, Georgia,
         Indiana and Pennsylvania. The dental practices are owned by separate
         Professional Associations (the "P.A.s"), and the Company has entered
         into long-term Administrative Services Agreements ("Management
         Agreements") with the P.A.s to provide administrative, financial and
         technical support and expertise to the P.A.s in exchange for
         management, consulting and licensing fees, as described in Note 3.

         Each P.A. employs and directs the professional dental staff, including
         the dentists and hygienists, and provides all of the clinical services
         to the patients. The Company employs and directs the administrative
         staff and manages in collaboration with the P.A. owner, all of the
         remaining administrative, financial, marketing and professional
         services of the practice. The following represents the number and
         locations where the Company provided management services as of 
         December 31,

         STOCK SPLIT
         On October 6, 1997 the Company's Board of Directors authorized an 81.54
         to 1 stock split. The increase in authorized shares and the stock split
         have been retroactively reflected in these financial statements. The
         Company also authorized an increase of its authorized common shares to
         50 million.

         REVENUE RECOGNITION
         The Company records its revenue in accordance with Management
         Agreements and other consulting and licensing agreements further
         described in Note 3.

         ADVERTISING
         The costs of advertising, promotion and marketing, aggregating $42,272,
         $29,502 and $24,085 for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and
         1998, respectively, are expensed when incurred and are included in
         general and administrative expenses.

         FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
         The estimated fair value of amounts reported in the financial
         statements have been determined by using available market information
         and appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying value of all
         current assets and current liabilities approximates fair value because
         of their short-term nature. The carrying value of all non-current
         financial instruments are considered to approximate fair value based
         upon current market rates and instruments with similar risks and
         maturities.

         CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
         The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an
         original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

         CONSULTING AND LICENSING FEES RECEIVABLE
         Consulting and licensing fees receivable represents amounts owed to the
         Company from various P.A.s for consulting and licensing fees provided
         under contracts. The Company reviews the collectibility of its
         receivables related to consulting and license fees. This review is
         based upon the cash flow of the P.A.s and the fair market value of the
         collateral of the assets of the P.A.s.

         MANAGEMENT FEE RECEIVABLE FROM P.A.
         Management fee receivable from P.A. consists of amounts owed to the
         Company related to revenue recorded in accordance with Management
         Agreement and is recorded based upon the net realizable value of
         patient accounts receivables of the P.A.s. The Company reviews the
         collectibility of the patient accounts receivables of the P.A.s and
         adjusts its management fee receivable accordingly.

         ADVANCES TO P.A.S
         Advances to P.A.s consist of receivables from P.A.s in connection with
         working capital advances made to affiliated practices. The Company
         reviews the collectibility of its receivables related to advances to
         P.A.s. This review is based upon the cash flow of the P.A.s, and the
         fair market value of the collateral of the assets of the P.A.s.
         Commencing August 1997, under terms of note agreements such advances
         are repayable under terms calling for interest at 8 1/2 %, adjusted for
         any changes in the Company's borrowing rate, and are due on demand. All

         payables between P.A.s under common ownership have a right of offset
         included in the agreement. The Company has established a reserve for
         these advances of $86,000 and $149,000 as of December 31, 1997 and
         1998, respectively.

         NOTES RECEIVABLE FROM P.A.S
         Notes receivable from P.A.s relate to financing of capital additions
         made by P.A.s covering certain medical and non-medical assets. Notes
         receivables from P.A.s generally have terms of 2 to 10 years, are
         interest bearing with rates between 8 1/2 % and 18 1/2 %, and are
         secured by the assets of the Managed Dental Center and personally
         guaranteed by the P.A. owners.

         PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
         Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance
         and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred and expenditures for
         additions and betterments are capitalized. The cost of assets sold or
         otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are
         eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is
         reflected in the statement of operations.

         Depreciation is computed by using the straight-line method over the
         estimated useful life of the asset, ranging from 3 to 10 years.
         Leasehold improvements are amortized over their estimated useful life
         or the remaining lease period, whichever is less.

         INTANGIBLE ASSETS
         Intangible assets includes certain organizational costs associated with
         the incorporation of the Company and costs related to consideration
         given to entities in exchange for (i) entering into Management
         Agreements, (ii) waiver by minority stockholder of any rights to
         receive management fees under certain Management Agreements, (iii)
         revised terms to existing Management Agreements and (iv) the purchase
         of minority stockholder rights in PM. Intangible assets are being
         amortized over periods of 5-25 years.

         USE OF ESTIMATES
         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
         and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
         liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
         date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
         and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
         from those estimates.

         DEPENDENCE ON THE P.A.S
         The Company receives fees for services provided to the P.A.s under
         Management Agreements, and Consulting and Licensing Agreements, but
         does not employ dentists or control the practices of the dentists
         employed by the P.A.s. The Company's revenue is dependent on revenue
         generated by the P.A.s and, therefore, effective and continued
         performance of the Managed Dental Centers during the term of the
         Management Agreements is essential to the Company's long-term success.

         The Management Agreements are generally for a term of 25 years
         beginning on the effective date of each individual agreement and
         renewing each and every year on the anniversary date of the subsequent
         year for a period of generally 25 years and may be terminated by the
         P.A., or the Company, under certain events of default "with cause" as
         defined, including a material default by

         or bankruptcy of the Company. In the event of a material default by the
         P.A., or its owner, the P.A. can sell the practice to a third party
         mutually agreed to or sell its assets to the Company for a preset
         formula price and assign ownership interest to a P.A. agreeable to all
         parties. In the event that the proper notification period is given to
         the Company, the P.A. can terminate the agreement at any time without
         cause if it sells the practice and assigns the agreement to another
         party to be approved by the Company. The sales price in such event will
         be determined through negotiations among the selling P.A. and the
         buyer. In no event can the Company replace the P.A. at will or for a
         nominal fee, except in the event of default. Any material loss of
         revenue by the P.A.s would have a material adverse effect on the
         Company, including the P.A.s' ability to repay their indebtedness to
         the Company.

         IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
         The Company periodically analyzes the value of its long-lived assets
         including intangibles by comparison of undiscounted cash flows from
         operations with related carrying value of the assets. At December 31,
         1998, the unamortized balance of these assets are not considered to be
         impaired.

         INCOME TAXES
         Upon its incorporation on October 23, 1996, as described in Note 1, the
         Company terminated its predecessor status as a Limited Liability
         Corporation and is now subject to federal income taxes. Effective
         October 25, 1996, the Company accounted for income taxes under the
         liability method in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
         Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes ("SFAS No. 109").

3.       REVENUE RECOGNITION

         MANAGEMENT FEES

         Management fees represent revenue earned from managed dental practices
         less amounts retained by the practices for those P.A.s where the
         Company provides management services.

         The Company earns management fees from the P.A.s under two types of
         contracts: net revenue and net profits. Under the net revenue
         contracts, management fees are equal to 67% - 74% of the patient
         revenues earned by the P.A. Such contracts also stipulate that the
         Company must pay certain expenses, as defined by the Management
         Agreement. Under the net profits contracts, management fees are equal
         to between 50% and 55% of the practice's net profits, as defined. Net
         profit is calculated by subtracting practice expenses (which
         constitutes both dental and non-dental expenses), excluding
         depreciation and amortization, from net collected practice revenue.
         Contractual revenues and related expenses have, for purposes of the
         accompanying financial statements, been reflected on an accrual basis.

         The amounts contractually retained by the practices under net revenue
         contracts are intended to cover amounts incurred for (1) salary and
         benefits to employ the dentists, hygienists and contracted specialists;
         (2) licensing fees to be paid to the Company; (3) debt and asset
         carrying costs on the acquisition of the practices; (4) any other
         direct costs to the P.A. not covered under the Management Agreement.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

3.       REVENUE RECOGNITION--(CONTINUED)

         The revised structure of the P.A. contracts is designed to provide the
         P.A. with the opportunity to achieve profits over the term of the
         contract, as well as for incentives for the P.A. owners and dental
         professionals to increase productivity and the number of patient
         encounters, to improve the documentation of their services so that
         appropriate billings can be rendered and to increase the opportunity
         for dental professionals other than dentists to provide services.

         The P.A. located in Port Charlotte, Florida has the right to terminate
         its Management Agreement during a 90-day period beginning in October
         1998. Such Managed Dental Center contributed approximately 18%, 8% and
         3% to the Company's revenue in 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The
         P.A. elected to terminate its Management Agreement effective February
         1, 1999.

         CONSULTING AND LICENSING FEES

         As of December 31, 1998, the Company provides separate licensing
         services to the 78 Managed Dental Centers. The licensing agreements
         typically call for a 25 year term, in exchange for an annual fee from
         each practice of approximately $10,000 - $12,000 per year. As part of
         the licensing agreements, the Company will solicit and negotiate
         managed care contracts for the practice and provide opportunities for
         the licensed practice to participate in group purchasing and marketing
         plans.

5.       BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND ACQUISITIONS

         Business Combinations

         On October 15, 1998, the Company and Gental Dental Service Corporation
         ("GDSC") signed a definitive agreement to merge in a transaction
         expected to be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. The
         transaction will create one of the largest dental practice
         management companies in the nation. The new company will be affiliated
         with dental practices in California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, Idaho,
         Nevada, Florida, Indiana, Georgia, Michigan and Pennsylvania. In the
         proposed combination, the Company and GDSC, each will become a
         wholly-owned subsidiary of a new Delaware corporation ("InterDent") to
         be headquartered in El Segundo, California. The merger was completed on
         March 12, 1999 based upon shareholder approval of March 11, 1999. See
         Subsequent Events note 19 for further discussion.

         In connection with the GDSC merger, the Company recorded direct merger
         expenses of $587,950 in the fourth quarter of 1998. These expenses
         consist primarily of accounting, legal and other advisory fees. The
         Company expects additional merger and restructure charges to be
         incurred throughout 1999.

         Acquisitions

         On December 29, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
         capital stock of Marketplace Dental, Inc., a Florida corporation
         ("Marketplace"), pursuant to the merger (the "Merger"), of Marketplace
         with and into Dental Care Alliance of Florida, Inc. ("DCA Florida"), a
         wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Marketplace was the practice
         management company resulting from the reorganization of Children's
         Dental Arcade, Inc. and Wellington Marketplace Group, P.A. on October
         1, 1997. The Merger was consummated pursuant to that certain Agreement
         and Plan of Merger dated December 29, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement")
         among the Company, Marketplace, DCA Florida and the Marketplace
         shareholders.

         DCA Florida was the surviving corporation in the Merger. Marketplace
         was a dental practice management company which managed six dental
         practices in Palm Beach County. Pursuant to the Merger the Company
         acquired all of the assets of Marketplace. Such assets consisted
         primarily of non-dental assets (including dental equipment) and
         management agreements. Pursuant to the Merger, all shares of
         Marketplace common stock were converted into the right to receive, in
         the aggregate eighty thousand (80,000) shares of unregistered common
         stock of the Registrant and an amount in cash of approximately
         $500,000, which was included in acquisition and affiliation obligations
         payable at December 31, 1997. In addition, the Merger Agreement calls
         for the issuance of additional common stock if certain operating
         results are achieved.

         In March 1998, the Company executed an agreement for a $15 million line
         of credit (Revolving Note) with a financial institution. The Revolving
         Note is subject to a fee for the unused portion of the line of credit
         of .25%. Certain restrictive covenants, including debt liquidity ratios
         and interest, liability and liquidity coverage, were included in the
         agreement and as of December 31, 1998, the Company was in compliance
         with such covenants.

         The Revolving Note expires in May 1999 and the financial institution
         has provided notice of their intention to renew for one additional year
         under similar terms. As such, these amounts are included in the.
         long-term portion of debt.

12.       EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

         On January 26, 1994 and October 25, 1996, the Company issued to one of
         its officers warrants to purchase 81,540 shares of stock (at each grant
         date), with an exercise price at the then fair market value (aggregate
         value of $147,768 and $125,000 respectively) of the stock, as
         determined by an independent third party appraisal. The warrants became
         fully vested in January 1997. All such warrants were exercised in
         February 1997, and the exercise price was funded by an interest bearing
         note from the Company. This interest bearing note has been offset
         against additional paid-in capital in stockholders' equity at December
         31, 1997.

         On January 21, 1997, the Company issued a stock option for 49,576
         shares of stock to another officer of the Company which is exercisable,
         in whole or in part, immediately. Exercise price is fair market value
         on the grant date ($1.53 per share). In no event shall this option be
         exercisable after January 21, 2002.

         In November 1997, the Company adopted the 1997 Executive Incentive
         Compensation Plan (the "Incentive Plan") which is designed to attract
         and retain employees, officers and Directors. The Incentive Plan is
         administered by the Stock Option and Compensation Committee of the
         Board of Directors and 250,000 shares of Common Stock have been
         reserved for issuance under the Plan. In May 1998, the Company
         registered the Plan such that the shares issued to recipients at
         exercise will not be restricted.

         The Company uses the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock
         options awarded to employees. Pro forma information regarding net
         income and earnings per share has been determined as if the Company
         had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value
         method. Under this method, the fair value of each option grant is
         estimated on the date of grant using the fair value method with the
         following weighted average assumptions: no dividend yield, 6% - 11%
         expected volatility, risk-free interest rates ranging from 4.57% -
         5.80% and average expected lives of three to four years.

         The Black-Scholes option valuation model was used in estimating the
         fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are
         fully transferable. In addition, option

         valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions
         including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's
         employee stock options have characteristics significantly different
         from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective
         input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in
         management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a
         reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock
         options. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair
         value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting
         period. The Company's pro forma net earnings and earnings per share
         were as follows:

13.      NON-EMPLOYEE OPTION PLAN AND WARRANTS

         In November 1997, the Company adopted the 1997 Non-qualified Stock
         Option Plan ("Non-employee Plan") which is designed to provide
         additional incentives for the P.A.s with which the Company has entered
         into Management Agreements to attract and retain qualified dentists,
         health care specialists and P.A. owners. The Non-employee Plan is
         administered by the Stock Option and Compensation Committee of the
         Board of Directors and 425,000 shares of Common Stock have been
         reserved for the Non-employee Plan. The shares underlying the
         Non-employee Plan will not be registered.

         In conjunction with work performed under an exclusive corporate
         development advisory agreement (Note 14), the Company also granted
         warrants to advisors.

         The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant
         using the fair value method with the following weighted average
         assumptions: no dividend yield, 6% - 11% expected volatility, risk-free
         interest rates ranging from 4.57% - 5.80% and average expected lives of
         three to four years. As the Nonemployee Plan is not registered, the
         fair market value of the underlying stock has been discounted by 10%.

         The Black-Scholes option valuation model was used in estimating the
         fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are
         fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the
         input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock
         price volatility. Because the Company's non-employee stock options have
         characteristics significantly different from those of traded options,
         and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially
         affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing
         models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair

         of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting

         The Company issues options to affiliated dentists under the
         Non-employee Plan on behalf of the respective P.A. Beginning in 1998,
         consistent with a modification of the associated Management Agreements,
         the fair value of such options is being charged to the P.A. and is to
         be reimbursed to the Company. The fair value of options issued to
         affiliated dentists during 1998 was $139,455.

         The Company issues options to P.A. owners as a component of the
         compensation for entering into new Management Agreements. Beginning in
         1998, the fair value of such options is included as a component of the
         purchase price which increases the recorded intangible assets. The fair
         value of options issued to P.A. owners during 1998 was $2,025.

14.      ADVISORY SERVICES

         The Company entered into an exclusive corporate development advisory
         agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") in September 1995, as amended on
         April 25, 1996, under which the Company is committed to the following:

         o        A retainer each quarter equal to the greater of $4,000 or 6
                  percent of the Company's quarterly income before income tax
                  expenses in excess of $75,000, beginning February 1, 1996
                  through the date of the initial public offering (November 4,
                  1997), which is recorded as a component of general and
                  administrative expenses;

         o        Warrants to purchase an ownership interest (84,802 shares) at
                  an exercise price of $20,000 for services rendered in
                  connection with business development and other financial
                  management advisory services. These warrants were exercised in
                  June 1997;

         o        A fee of $105,000 with respect to the issuance of the
                  mandatorily redeemable preferred stock;

         o        A fee of $100,000 and a 5 year warrant to purchase 29,167
                  shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to $12 per
                  share, upon consummation of its initial public offering on
                  November 7, 1997; and

         o        Warrants to purchase 53,001 shares of common stock at an
                  exercise price of $92,355, which became vested upon the
                  completion of the Company's initial public offering for
                  services rendered in connection with financial, marketing, and
                  administrative support related to the initial public offering.

         PRO FORMA

         Upon its incorporation on October 23, 1996, as described in Note 1, the
         Company terminated its predecessor status as a limited liability
         corporation and became subject to federal and state income taxes. In
         addition, since the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards
         Board Statement No. 128 "Earnings per Share" in 1997, pro forma
         adjustments for income taxes as if the Company had been treated as a C
         corporation and the impact of the preferred stock conversion have not
         been included in historical earnings per share in the Statement of
         Operations. Had the Company not restated prior years' earnings per
         share, the pro forma effect would have been as follows:

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

18.      COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

         The Company has entered into employment agreements with three of its
         officers, one of whom is also the majority stockholder of the Company.
         The terms of the agreements are from 4 to 5 years and initially expire
         in 1998 and 2001.

         The Company has entered into a staff leasing agreement whereby all of
         the Company's corporate employees and, all of the Managed Dental Center
         non-medical are leased.

         In the ordinary course of business, the Company is party to several
         legal proceedings, the outcome of which, singly or in aggregate, is not
         expected to be material to the Company's financial position, results of
         operations or cash flows.

         The Company has guaranteed a portion of the P.A.s debt. The guarantees
         relate primarily to debt incurred related to the acquisition of
         dental practices and is in addition to collateral already provided by
         the P.A. As of December 31, 1998, the amount P.A. debt guaranteed by
         the Company is approximately $5.9 million.

19.      SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         In January 1999, the Company executed a 25-year Management Agreement
         with a dental practice in Kissimmee. This dental practice had been
         managed under a net profit contract. The P.A. owners sold their
         interest to another licensed dentist, who executed the new agreement as
         a net revenue contract.

         In February 1999, the Company purchased tangible assets and executed
         25-year Management Agreements with seven dental practices in Michigan.
         Four of the dental practices are Managed Dental Centers whose
         Management Agreements were to expire in 2005. Unaudited net practice
         revenue for the year ended December 31, 1998, for the four dental
         practices was $3.6 million and was $2.2 million for the three
         additional dental practices. The total purchase price was $4.9 million,
         of which $600,000 was allocated to tangible assets, $200,000 was
         allocated to assumed net assets and $4.1 million to Management
         Agreements.

         On March 11, 1999, the Company's shareholders approved a transaction
         whereby the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of InterDent, Inc.
         as a result of a business combination between the Company and Gentle
         Dental Service Corporation. The business combination will be accounted
         for as a pooling-of-interest. In accordance with the terms of the
         transaction the Company's shareholders will receive 1.67 shares of
         InterDent, Inc. stock for every share of Company stock.
