At Great Expressions Dental Centers (GEDC), Our Vision is to be the premier provider of patient-centered health care for every family in our community. Our Mission is to inspire Practices and Team Members to deliver comprehensive and clinically distinctive care so each community member will smile with confidence. We’re here to support you and provide a working environment that makes each day a rewarding experience.

Guided by Our Values

Ethical

We always do what is right for the patient, for the oral and health care profession, for our Team Members and for GEDC.

Compassionate

We believe each of us delivers care to our patients and we treat fellow Team Members with dignity and respect.

Inclusive

We treat every Team Member as an equal contributor in the care of a patient and leverage Team Member knowledge to build stronger ideas, outcomes and culture.

Service-Oriented

We commit to excellence in patient care and service at each step of the patient journey in the communities we serve.

Collaborative

We work as a team to problem solve and build solutions to deliver a distinctive and cost-efficient DSO service offering.

Accountable

We live by our objectives and goals, measure our performance and accept responsibility for delivering on our commitments and promised results.

Driven

We will not rest until we achieve best-in-class outcomes for patients and create value for all stakeholders.

We Recognize Brilliance

The Power of One

Each Team Member is empowered to make a difference in the lives of our patients, each other and the communities that we serve. Through this program, we have developed the foundation to help us work together to create a shared culture.

Team Member Engagement Committees

We have nine Team Member Engagement Committees, one for each geographic region and the Practice Support Center. These groups work on a variety of efforts to enhance our culture and recognize the great work of our people.

National Values Champions

Every month, our Engagement Committees select and honor individuals for their active demonstration of our values. Each Values Champion receives a framed certificate signed by the Great Expressions Executive Leadership Team and a jacket to commemorate the honor.
