Who We Are

Envision Dental is a Dental Support Organization (DSO) dedicated to strengthening general dental practices and expanding access to care across a diverse range of communities.

We are a corporate acquisition and management organization built to support dentists by centralizing non-clinical operations, improving financial stability, and accelerating long-term growth—while preserving clinical autonomy.

Founded in Papillion, Nebraska, EDI was created with a clear purpose: empower clinicians to focus on patient care by removing the administrative weight of running a modern dental business.

A Different Kind of Dental Support Organization

The DSO model is often misunderstood. At its core, a Dental Support Organization provides business infrastructure to dental practices so providers can focus on delivering high-quality care.

At EDI, that infrastructure includes:

Human resources and staffing systems

Accounting and financial management

Legal and regulatory compliance

Billing and revenue cycle oversight

Facility and equipment coordination

Technology infrastructure

Standardized patient technology

Clinical decisions remain with the licensed dentist. Our role is to manage the business side with discipline, transparency, and long-term alignment.

Partnership Over Consolidation

We are not focused on short-term transactions. We are building long-term partnerships. Unlike large, out-of-state corporate consolidators, EDI was founded with a local mindset and long-term commitment to the communities we serve.
Our model supports dentists who want to:

Transition into retirement with financial security

Retain equity and participate in future growth

Reduce administrative stress

Improve operational performance

Expand services responsibly

Every partnership begins with a structured, confidential conversation and a transparent valuation process.

Founder-Led and Relationship-Driven

Envision Dental was founded by Eric and Becky Gehringer, who reside in Papillion, Nebraska. As a founder-led organization, we prioritize direct relationships, ethical acquisition practices, and clear communication.

We believe trust is earned through:

  • Transparency
  • Structured processes
  • Aligned incentives
  • Community responsibility
  • Long-term commitment

Guided by Purpose and Principle

Our organization operates with clearly defined principles and long-term objectives. Every decision we make reflects our commitment to integrity, patient-centered care, excellence, and community engagement.

Empowering Clinicians to Focus on Care

Dental clinicians and their teams are the foundation of community health. They are educators, problem-solvers, and trusted partners in their patients’ lives.

EDI exists to support these professionals by:

  • Removing administrative friction
  • Strengthening financial infrastructure
  • Providing operational clarity
  • Creating aligned growth opportunities

When dentists are supported, communities benefit.
