About Us
Create Membership Plans that Patients and Providers Love
As everyone knows, dental health is critical to overall health. Unfortunately, dental insurance is too complicated, too confusing, and too expensive for dentists and patients alike. As a result, 40% of US consumers do not have dental coverage, 50% of US consumers do not visit a dentist each year, and dentists continue to struggle with practice success while managing complicated insurance plans with low reimbursement fees, coverage limits and claims denials.
Company Overview
Our mission is to make professional oral care accessible to everyone with a membership model that patients and providers love.
We are doing something about this. We connect dentists directly with patients to eliminate the inefficiency, cost, and hassle of workarounds. Using our cloud-based platform, dentists easily design, implement, and grow a successful membership plan with their own dental care plans, offering them directly to patients. The result is affordable, comprehensive dental coverage that works for dental practices and enables patients to get the professional oral care they need.
As the established leaders in the dental membership space, Kleer and Membersy support a combined footprint of over 20,000 dentists and millions of patients across all 50 states, and cover the entire spectrum of dental practices, from independent solo practices to the largest DSOs in the country.
Kleer and Membersy came together in 2024 to provide an unmatched dental membership solution and experience. Leveraging their complementary strengths, industry expertise, and scale, Kleer and Membersy will create significant value for DSOs, independent dental practices, and their patients by expanding access to care for all uninsured and underinsured Americans, including more than 76 million adults without dental insurance.
