FABG gives independent dental practices access to preferred vendor programs, business resources, education and a community of experienced practice owners—all without telling you how to run your business.
There are no required purchases and no obligation to change the vendors or systems that already work for you. Join the network, explore the available opportunities and activate the relationships that make sense for your practice.
FIVE STEPS
From enrollment to ongoing value — what happens after you join, and how members put the network to work.
Choose the membership that matches your practice and goals. Implant-Focused membership is designed for practices primarily seeking purchasing advantages across implants and related clinical categories. Full FABG membership is designed for practices performing full-arch treatment or actively building a full-arch program. Membership is month-to-month, with no long-term contract.
Once enrolled, you gain access to the FABG member portal and the resources included with your membership. Inside the network, you can explore preferred vendor relationships, negotiated pricing, member promotions, educational opportunities and business resources. Full FABG members also receive access to the private doctor community, full-arch-specific programs and one-on-one business coaching.
Every practice operates differently. Some members begin by reducing the cost of implants, restorative components, biologics or laboratory work. Others first focus on financing, marketing, technology, staffing, case acceptance or improving their full-arch systems. You decide where FABG can create the most immediate value for your practice.
Use as many or as few FABG relationships as your practice needs. You are never required to purchase from a specific company, abandon an existing relationship or move all your business to one vendor. When an FABG partner offers a better combination of pricing, quality, service or support, you can choose to activate that opportunity.
FABG continues evaluating new vendors, negotiating member programs and developing resources based on the needs of independent practices. As the network grows, so does its collective purchasing power, shared experience and ability to create better opportunities for members.
MORE THAN PRICING
Traditional buying groups often stop at negotiated pricing. FABG is designed to support more of the practice.
Depending on your membership, the network can help you:
Lower costs across frequently used clinical products and services
Compare vendors before making purchasing decisions
Find vetted resources specifically relevant to implant and full-arch dentistry
Learn from other independent practice owners
Identify operational and business opportunities
Attend member webinars and educational programs
Receive direct guidance when working through practice challenges
Discover new products, technologies and service providers
The goal is not simply to help you buy for less. It is to help you make better decisions, avoid costly mistakes and build a stronger independent practice.
FOUR PATHWAYS
Explore preferred programs for implants, prosthetic components, laboratories, biologics, equipment and other commonly used clinical products.
Access resources related to marketing, financing, case acceptance, technology, staffing, operations and other areas that affect practice growth.
Full FABG members can communicate with doctors facing many of the same clinical, operational and business decisions.
Full FABG membership includes one-on-one business coaching to help identify challenges, evaluate opportunities and determine practical next steps.
INDEPENDENCE
FABG was created to strengthen independent practices—not control them.
No forced vendors. No ownership. No loss of independence.
You maintain control over every purchasing decision.
You decide which resources and relationships to use.
You retain your existing vendors whenever they remain the right fit.
You can cancel your membership without a long-term contractual commitment.
THE VALUE QUESTION
The answer depends on what your practice currently purchases and which resources it uses. Many practices have opportunities to offset the cost of membership through improved pricing in only one or two spending categories.
The broader opportunity comes from combining purchasing savings with better vendor access, education, community and business support.
The best way to evaluate FABG is to enter the network, compare the opportunities with what you are currently paying and activate the programs that make sense.
HOW PURCHASING WORKS
Keep the relationships and ordering processes you already know and trust. FABG simply makes them more valuable.
Joining the Full Arch Buying Group doesn't mean changing how you do business with your favorite vendors. In fact, with participating vendors, you can continue working with the same representatives, placing orders the same way you always have — just with exclusive FABG member pricing.
THREE WAYS TO PURCHASE
OPTION 01
Already have a relationship with a participating vendor? Great! Simply let your representative know you're now a FABG member. Once your membership is verified and your account is updated, you'll have access to your exclusive FABG pricing.
Same representative. Same ordering process. Better prices.
OPTION 02
Prefer to manage your purchasing in one place? The FABG Portal also allows members to place orders directly with participating vendors.
Browse available products, access member pricing, and submit orders conveniently through the portal. It's another option designed to make purchasing easier, without requiring you to change your existing vendor relationships.
GROUP BULK PURCHASING
Want to save even more? FABG offers exclusive group bulk-buying opportunities with participating vendors. Here's how it works:
Browse available group purchasing opportunities in the FABG Portal and select the products and quantities your practice needs.
Each practice places its own individual order. As more FABG members participate, the combined order volume grows, unlocking progressively greater discount tiers.
The larger the collective purchase, the better the potential pricing for participating members.
Once the bulk buy closes, the vendor confirms your individual order and final pricing, collects payment, and ships your products directly to your practice — just like a normal order.
You get the purchasing power of a large organization while maintaining the independence of your own practice.
ZERO DISRUPTION
FABG is designed to work around your practice, not the other way around. Whether you prefer calling your trusted sales representative, ordering through the FABG Portal, or taking advantage of group bulk purchases, you're always in control of how you buy.
