The Power of Collective Buying
As a dental practice owner, you know that supplies represent one of your largest overhead costs. But what if you could access the same pricing power as large dental chains? That's exactly what Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs) deliver.
What is a GPO?
A Group Purchasing Organization aggregates the purchasing power of many dental practices to negotiate better prices with suppliers. When 200+ practices buy together, suppliers offer significant discounts they would never give to individual offices.
Key Benefits of GPO Membership
1. Significant Cost Savings
TGP members typically save 20-30% on dental supplies compared to retail pricing. For an average practice spending $5,000-$10,000 monthly on supplies, that translates to $1,500-$3,000 in monthly savings.
2. Access to Premium Suppliers
Get direct relationships with top-tier suppliers like Henry Schein, Patterson, and specialty manufacturers—often with dedicated account representatives.
3. Simplified Procurement
Stop spending hours comparing prices across multiple websites. GPO platforms consolidate ordering, tracking, and analytics in one place.
4. Predictable Pricing
Locked-in contract pricing protects you from unexpected price increases and simplifies budgeting.
Is a GPO Right for Your Practice?
If you answer yes to any of these questions, GPO membership could benefit you:
- Are supply costs eating into your margins?
- Do you spend too much time shopping for supplies?
- Would you like better relationships with suppliers?
- Are you looking to grow without proportionally increasing overhead?
