Our Story

 

Dentists on Demand (DOD) emerged from the on-demand “we come to you” trend. Dr. David Blende, co-founder, was raised on a ranch in rural Washington where his father performed house calls as the only physician serving a vast wilderness area. In his footsteps, Dr. Blende pioneered house calls into his urban San Francisco dental practice and has over a decade of experience in the mobile dental industry. He and Carla Caramat, co-founder and CEO, have worked together for over 20 years, forming a team focused on innovating the legacy dental industry.

During those two decades, there has been a steady decrease in adult visits to the dentist. The main reason cited has been the inconvenience factor. DOD was formed to help solve this issue by going directly to the patient’s workplace via its “dental pop-up”. Through caring dental professionals, innovative on-site dental suite, and use of technology throughout the patient journey, DOD delivers convenience and an amazing patient experience.

DOD’s innovative use of on-site mobile dental equipment and technology promotes health and wellness to an organization’s employees, avoiding unnecessary time off and reducing sick days due to dental emergencies. Scheduling a dental pop-up with DOD means employees spend less time commuting and in waiting rooms, and enjoy the benefit of an important perk on-site at work. For those who are due or overdue for a dental visit, DOD is a great solution to offset procrastination and enable employees to remain current with their dental health. DOD is a high value and cost-effective addition to a company’s health and wellness benefit program.
