Aspen Dental

Aspen Dental is an American dental support organization founded in 1994 by Robert Fontana.
==History==
Aspen Dental Management, Inc. (ADMI) was founded in 1994 by Fontana, the chief executive. He completed business school in 1991 and worked at Upstate Dental in New York. After Upstate Dental merged with East Coast Dental in 1997, the resulting firm was launched as ADMI.
In 2010, Leonard Green & Partners purchased Aspen Dental from Ares Management for about $500 million. By 2010, private equity firms were bidding on Aspen Dental and Kool Smiles, the two largest chains of dental offices in the United States at the time.
In 2012, a PBS series Dollars and Dentists, produced by Frontline in partnership with the Center for Public Integrity, described Aspen Dental's business model as one which makes dental work immediately accessible to low-income patients by providing interest-free credit, in which the investigation that followed revealed patients were overcharged or given unnecessary treatments, which was regarded as controversial by viewers.
