Our Founder and CEO, Dr. Chris Steven Villanueva (Dr. V), recently sat down with Dr. Bob Dee on Dentistry in General Radio Network’s podcast for a two-part conversation on the evolving landscape of dentistry and what it means to stay true to your values in a fast-changing space.
Give both episodes a listen here!
Dr. V shares the story behind MB2’s doctor-led model and why we believe clinical decisions should always stay in the hands of doctors. They cover everything from MB2’s origin story to misconceptions surrounding private equity in dentistry and why the future of dentistry depends on collaboration, not division. The conversation tackles some of the most pressing questions in dentistry today without sugarcoating the realities.
Across both episodes, they talk about:
- Why MB2 was founded to preserve private practice culture with the support of scale
- How doctor autonomy remains at the core of every decision we make
- What recapitalization really looks like and how it’s helped our partners grow
- The growing divide between narratives and reality in conversations around DSOs
- How we’re helping the next generation of doctors find mentorship, stability, and ownership
If you’re curious about MB2’s structure, our philosophy, or what’s next for the profession, these episodes offer an unfiltered look at what sets us apart.
