Tralongo Merges with Dental Whale to Expand Opportunities for Dental Entrepreneurs

Dental Whale, the nation’s first comprehensive resource company designed to help dentists get out of their chairs and grow their dental legacy, has merged with Tralongo, a firm specializing in dental practice acquisitions. Tralongo, founded and led by Dr. Ken Tralongo, has more than 25 years of experience in practice management. He is focused on identifying, acquiring and supporting a network of high-performing, profitable practices in partnership with entrepreneurial-minded dental professionals.
Dental Whale provides dentists with a wide range of practice management solutions to help them build efficiencies, grow profitability, acquire practices, create an exit strategy and more. Tralongo partners with dentists throughout the United States to help them expand their practices through the acquisition of existing dental offices. This includes helping dentists find the right dental practices to acquire, assisting in obtaining the appropriate financing, and working with them during the transition from old to new ownership.
Through its merger with Dental Whale and the innovative platform created by the Dental Whale leadership team, Tralongo helps dental entrepreneurs and partners optimize operations and efficiencies throughout the acquisition and practice life cycle to maximize profits. Dental Whale and its partners also provide clients with behind-the-scenes management support, including finance, human resources, marketing and ongoing education.
“Dental Whale brings new opportunities and a broader reach as Tralongo continues to offer a unique, proven set of tools to support our dental partners as they find practices that meet their criteria, perform due diligence, get the appropriate financing and acquire new practices,” said Dr. Ken Tralongo DDS, co-founder of Dental Whale.
