Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Toothio operates an on-demand staffing platform for the dental industry, matching credentialed dental professionals — hygienists, dental assistants and receptionists — with dental practices that need to fill shifts. The platform is positioned to address staffing shortages in dental offices, allowing practices to fill open shifts quickly in order to maintain office production and patient care, while giving dental workers flexibility over when and where they work.

The company was founded in 2021 and is led by co-founder and CEO Ian Prendergast. Its stated mission is to alleviate staffing challenges faced by dentists by providing on-demand access to hygienists and assistants. Following its 2023 seed round, Toothio said it would invest in its technology, expand into additional key U.S. markets, grow its network of dental professionals and add to its sales team, including sales and partnership hires; its team includes people who previously worked at Amazon, Uber and Qwik.

Founding story

Toothio was founded in 2021 with the stated aim of easing staffing shortages for dental practices by giving them on-demand access to hygienists and assistants.

Business model

Toothio runs a two-sided marketplace: dental practices post or fill shifts on the platform, and credentialed dental professionals (hygienists, assistants, receptionists) pick up those shifts on a flexible basis.

Traction

As of August 2023, Toothio reported having facilitated thousands of completed shifts with a 97% fill rate, more than doubling its revenue since founding, and expansion into Phoenix, Denver, Dallas and Austin, with plans to enter additional U.S. markets by the end of 2023.

Latest developments
