Mentor, Ohio-based Empire Dental Arts announced March 3 that it has acquired Papich-Forsyth DDS Associates.
Papich-Forsyth DDS Associates has two practices in Stow and Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Maria Papich-Forsyth, DDS, founded the practice after receiving her dental degree from Chicago-based Northwestern University Dental School.
This is Empire Dental Arts' first transaction since being acquired by private equity firm Evolution Capital Partners in January. With the funding, Empire Dental Arts plans to expand throughout Northeast Ohio. Empire Dental Arts markets itself as a dental partnership organization that provides centralized administrative services to affiliated practices.
"Empire's partnership will provide our teams the necessary support to bolster the amount of quality clinical time we have with our patients," said Dr. Papich-Forsyth. "We are also excited about the additional resources and training that will enable us to continue to deliver the latest technology and practices to our dedicated patients."
