We are incredibly honored to share that GPS Dental has been named a finalist for the 2026 Arkansas Business of the Year Award—a milestone that reflects years of intentional growth, shared values, and an unwavering commitment to doing dentistry differently.
When our co-founders, Dr. Hunter Smith and Dr. Will Little, came together to build GPS Dental, they started with one clear and uncompromising goal: to create the best DSO in the country—built by doctors, for doctors. From the very beginning, GPS Dental was designed to challenge the traditional DSO model by putting clinical autonomy, partnership, and long-term success at the center of everything we do.
This recognition represents far more than a company achievement. It’s a testament to the doctors around the country who trusted our Arkansas team with their practices, believing in a partnership model rooted in respect and collaboration. It reflects the dedication of our team members, who chose to believe in a new way forward and work every day to support these practices with excellence. And most importantly, it speaks to the patients who experience care delivered by empowered clinicians—doctors who are supported, not restricted, and focused on achieving exceptional clinical outcomes.
Our Sincerest Gratitude
Being named a finalist for Arkansas Business of the Year is a meaningful reminder of why this journey began. It reinforces our commitment to redefining what partnership in dentistry can look like—one where doctors lead, teams thrive, and practices grow with purpose. Our mission remains simple and steadfast: support your practice, amplify your growth, and fuel your vision.
To our partners, our team, and the incredible Arkansas community that continues to support and inspire us—thank you. We are deeply grateful for this recognition and even more excited for what we will continue to build together in the years ahead.
