Group Purchasing for Pediatric Dentists
The pediatric dental GPO. Built by pediatric dentists, for pediatric dentists.
TGP negotiates volume pricing on the supplies your pediatric practice actually uses (strip crowns, pediatric handpieces, behavior management materials, child-size instruments) from 3M, Kerr, GC, Dentsply and the direct-with-manufacturer programs that move the needle.

Why a pediatric-specific GPO?
General dental GPOs negotiate around general-dentistry SKUs. Pediatric practices spend differently. The categories below typically make up 35-50% of a pediatric office's supply budget, and they're the ones a generic GPO leaves on the table.
Pediatric crowns
Stainless steel crowns, NuSmile, EZCrowns, strip crowns, anterior composites, with direct-with-manufacturer pricing where it exists.
Behavior management
Nitrous systems and consumables, papoose boards, Tell-Show-Do materials, distraction kits, prize wall supplies.
Pediatric instruments
Child-size mirrors, explorers, extraction forceps, pediatric handpieces, kid-friendly suction tips.
Preventive
Fluoride varnish, sealants, silver diamine fluoride, flavored prophy paste, take-home kits.
Patient experience
Themed PPE, kid-friendly bibs, scented masks, waiting room toys and disinfection supplies.
Compliance & PPE
Pediatric-sized gloves, masks, eyewear, latex-free options, CPR/BLS supplies.

Pediatric dental GPO FAQ
Are there GPOs for pediatric dentists?
Yes. TGP is the GPO built specifically for pediatric dental practices. General dental GPOs exist, but pediatric practices have unique supply needs (strip crowns, stainless steel crowns, pediatric handpieces, child-size instruments, behavior management materials) that need contracts negotiated against pediatric-specific volumes.
What pediatric brands does TGP cover?
3M (including ESPE pediatric crowns), Kerr, GC, Dentsply, Premier, Ivoclar, Coltene, Ultradent, SDI, and direct-with-manufacturer programs for pediatric strip crowns, NuSmile and EZCrowns, sealants, fluoride varnish, and silver diamine fluoride.
How is a pediatric dental GPO different from a general dental GPO?
Most general dental GPOs negotiate around general dentistry SKUs (composites, impression materials, crown-and-bridge consumables). Pediatric practices spend disproportionately on pediatric-only items, behavior management supplies, and patient-experience materials. Those categories need pediatric-specific volume to negotiate against, and TGP's contracts are weighted to pediatric utilization patterns.
Do you support multi-location pediatric groups?
Yes. TGP+ provides per-location budgets, formulary controls, multi-office reporting, and approval workflows so that growing pediatric groups can standardize procurement without losing per-office flexibility.
Can residents and new pediatric dentists join?
Yes. New practice owners and pediatric dental residents launching their first office get GPO pricing on buildout supplies, which is typically the largest single supply spend in a pediatric practice's lifecycle.
