123Dentist

123Dentist is a Canadian dental support organization and patient-facing dental care network that supports hundreds of community dental practices across Canada. The company began with a clinic founded by Dr. Amin Shivji in Vancouver in 1993, adopted the 123Dentist name in 2011, and was incorporated as a national network in 2017. It provides operational, recruiting, marketing, HR, accounting, and practice support services to partner clinics while maintaining a strong focus on general, cosmetic, orthodontic, restorative, sedation, and emergency dentistry. Following its merger with Altima Dental and Lapointe Group and its later acquisition of MCA Dental Group, 123Dentist has become one of the largest majority dentist-owned dental networks in Canada. It is a healthcare services business rather than a drug-development biotech or pharma company, with revenue generated from dental clinic operations and support services.
