Show Notes


In this episode of The Dental CEO Podcast, Dr. Scott Leune exposes the hidden pricing structures that leave private dentists paying more for supplies and labs than the largest DSOs. He breaks down how corporate distributors and traditional buying groups have quietly maintained inflated costs through exclusive contracts, nondisclosure agreements, and overlapping ownership—keeping independent practices at a disadvantage. Dr. Leune explains why it’s time for private dentists to rethink how they buy, what’s really driving pricing inequities across the industry, and how shifting to modern, privately held suppliers through focused alliances like the Private Dental Alliance (PDA) can finally level the playing field. This is a must-listen for any dentist ready to take control of their costs and reclaim their competitive edge.
