Care From Access to Completion
Go Oral Health is a national portable dental platform built to help providers, practices, DSOs, schools, and community organizations bring high-quality oral healthcare directly to the populations they serve. Powered by 47 years of proven portable care, we provide the infrastructure, technology, and value-based care systems that redefine how access to care, and completion of care, happen nationwide.

Students lose more than 34 million school hours every year to untreated oral health issues. Gentrification and public health shifts, including recent policy changes affecting fluoride, are widening care disparities at precisely the moment communities need more access, not less.
Traditional brick-and-mortar practices are structurally constrained by geography, infrastructure, and payer mix. Portable dentistry removes those constraints entirely.
Traditional practices face 58–65% overhead rates that compress margins and limit reinvestment in growth.
Fixed infrastructure ties care delivery to specific locations, leaving entire communities without access.
Burnout, scheduling complexity, and administrative burden are driving providers out of traditional settings.
Payer mix challenges and margin compression make Medicaid and underserved populations financially unsustainable for most practices.
The story of Go Oral Health begins nearly five decades ago. In 1979, Dr. Mark J. Doherty Sr. founded Commonwealth Mobile Oral Health Services in Massachusetts with a simple, powerful conviction: dental care should come to the people who need it most.
CMOHS has since delivered more than 3 million oral health services across Massachusetts, serving more than 300 sites in over 75 communities statewide, from Head Start programs and public schools to communities historically underserved by Medicaid. In September 2024, that legacy was recognized by Group Dentistry Now with its Emerging Dental Groups to Watch award.
Go Oral Health is the national scaling of a model that has worked, quietly and powerfully, for nearly fifty years. We are not theorizing. We are extending what works.
My father built something extraordinary with Commonwealth Mobile Oral Health Services. He proved that portable dentistry, done right, changes lives and communities. Go Oral Health is the next chapter of that story, built to take what we proved in Massachusetts and bring it to every community in this country that needs it.Dr. Mark E. Doherty, DMD, CAGS, Co-CEO, Go Oral Health
Go Oral Health serves four distinct audiences with purpose-built solutions, from the independent dentist building a first mobile practice to the national DSO expanding its community footprint.
Full Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) services, giving independent portable dentists access to the same economies of scale, operational systems, and infrastructure previously available only to large DSOs.
Infrastructure, clinical protocols, and operational systems to efficiently expand portable service lines or offload non-core care segments such as Medicaid, geriatric, pediatric overflow, or special needs.
Complete program infrastructure for bringing preventive and restorative oral health care directly to students, closing the most persistent gap in school-based health delivery. Built on 47 years of school-based delivery.
Clinical quality and program infrastructure for populations that traditional dental practices cannot reach: assisted living, employer campuses, Head Start programs, military and VA centers, and municipality partnerships.
Most portable and mobile providers carry the full weight of the business alone. Billing, credentialing, scheduling, compliance, and growth all land on the same person delivering the care. We take that weight off, so you can focus on patients instead of paperwork.
Independent portable dentists and registered dental hygienists built this field, but they have rarely had access to the infrastructure that makes large groups profitable. The result is talented clinicians spending nights on claims, denials, and consent forms rather than on care.
Go Oral Health gives you the full Business Process Outsourcing platform that national DSOs use, without asking you to sell, merge, or surrender control. You keep your name, your patients, and your clinical judgment. We run the operating system behind you.
Built on 47 years of portable delivery, our systems are designed for care that moves. We handle the revenue cycle, payer navigation, logistics, and compliance so a single-chair operation can perform like a multi-site group from day one.
Our providers average more than $4,000 in collections per clinical day, with overhead near 35 percent against an industry average of 58 to 65 percent. Better systems, not harder hours.
Consent collection, route planning, equipment, and site coordination run on infrastructure proven across hundreds of locations, so your day is clinical from start to finish.
When you are ready to add chairs, providers, or sites, we bring the capital strategy and operating playbooks to scale on your terms and timeline.
For solo practitioners, mobile providers, and RDH-owned practices ready to operate with enterprise-grade support.
Portable care is the fastest-growing access channel in dentistry, and the hardest to build internally. We give established groups a turnkey way to add it, expand it, or offload the segments that strain their fixed-site model.
Building a portable program in-house means new logistics, new compliance exposure, new payer contracts, and a clinical model your operations were never designed to run. Most groups stall before they reach scale, and the populations that need care most stay unreached.
Go Oral Health delivers a complete portable service line as infrastructure. We launch it branded or white-labeled, integrate it with your existing operations, and run the segments that drag on a fixed-site footprint, including Medicaid, geriatric, pediatric overflow, and special needs.
The result is a new access channel and a new revenue line that protect your core margins rather than competing with them. You extend reach and community standing while we carry the operational load.
Clinical protocols, logistics, staffing models, and payer contracts arrive as a system, not a project plan. Stand up a portable line in a fraction of the time and risk of building alone.
Offload the low-margin, high-complexity segments to a model engineered for them, and recover chair time and capacity inside your fixed sites.
Backed by HealthStream Ventures, we support diligence, integration, and structuring when portable expansion is part of a larger transaction or platform strategy.
For DSOs, DPOs, and multi-site groups expanding access or offloading non-core care segments.
Schools, senior living communities, Head Start sites, employers, and municipalities serve populations that traditional dental offices structurally cannot reach. We supply the clinical program and the infrastructure to close that gap, and to prove it closed.
Across the country, 74 million Americans lack meaningful access to dental care. Children miss an estimated 34 million school hours each year to untreated oral disease, and seniors in assisted living often go years without a dental visit. The need is rarely about willingness. It is about reach.
Go Oral Health brings complete program infrastructure directly to where these populations already are. We design, launch, and manage the program, handle parental consent and family communication, navigate Medicaid and program funding, and coordinate the referrals that turn a screening into finished treatment.
Built on 47 years of school-based and community delivery, our model is measured by completion of care, not just visits. We track outcomes so your stakeholders, funders, and families can see the difference the program makes.
Screenings are only the start. We coordinate restorative follow-up and referrals so children and seniors finish treatment, and we track it from access to completion.
Parental consent, scheduling, family communication, and site logistics run on systems refined over decades of community delivery, ethically and at scale.
We navigate Medicaid, grant funding, and value-based reporting so the program is sustainable for your organization and the community it serves.
For schools, senior living, employers, public health agencies, and community organizations expanding access to care.
End-to-end operational support across every function required to operate a portable dental practice at scale.
Environmental scans, site partner outreach, equipment logistics, scheduling, patient consenting, EDR management, post-care referral coordination, and guidance on minimally invasive dental care.
Field OpsInsurance verification, coding optimization, claims submission, denial management, payment posting, aging reports, fee schedule benchmarking, collection rate optimization, and Medicaid payer navigation.
RCM & BPOBookkeeping, monthly close, financial statements, payroll, provider compensation modeling, multi-entity consolidation, KPI dashboards, and EBITDA normalization.
FinancePMS integration, enterprise KPI dashboards, provider productivity tracking, real-time operational metrics, patient outcome tracking, and investor-ready data room creation.

StrategyThese metrics reflect actual performance from a portable dental practice operating on our platform, demonstrating how our systems and operational support drive measurably better financial outcomes.
Portable dentistry is not just about expanding access. It is a structurally superior operating model: lower fixed costs, higher capture rates, near-zero no-shows, and better provider quality of life. Our infrastructure makes it repeatable and scalable at every stage.
Go Oral Health is committed to shifting portable dental care toward measurable health outcomes and accountability. Access to care without completion of care is an incomplete solution. We close the loop.
Oral disease is linked to diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancers, dementia, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and respiratory illness. When Go Oral Health brings dental care into a school, a senior living community, or an underserved neighborhood, it is reducing systemic inflammation and supporting chronic disease management. Health starts in the mouth.
