Stop Overpaying for Dental Supplies

ALARA is a dental supply comparison platform that connects to your existing vendor accounts — including Patterson Dental, Henry Schein, Benco Dental, Darby Dental, and more — and shows you side-by-side pricing for every product. Because you see your negotiated prices from all vendors at once, you can always choose the lowest price without logging into multiple websites. Practices typically save 35% on dental supplies within the first month.

We integrate with 13+ major dental supply distributors including Henry Schein, Patterson Dental, Benco Dental, Darby Dental, Net32, Dental City, Safco Dental, DC Dental, and more. Whether you're ordering composite resin, dental instruments, PPE, impression materials, or everyday consumables, ALARA searches all your connected vendors in one place. New vendor integrations are added regularly.

Yes — ALARA is completely free for dental practices, DSOs, and group practices. There are no subscription fees, no per-order charges, and no credit card required to sign up. We also offer an Alara Partner Network with additional competitive pricing from select vendors, but you are never required to use it. Your existing vendor accounts and negotiated pricing remain fully intact.

When you add products to your cart from different vendors, ALARA lets you review and submit all orders from a single checkout page. Behind the scenes, we route each order to the correct vendor — so you get one checkout experience but each vendor fulfills their portion separately. You can track all orders in one dashboard regardless of which vendor is shipping them.

Security is our top priority. All vendor credentials are encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption and transmitted over TLS 1.3. We never store your payment information — payments are processed directly with each vendor. ALARA is SOC 2 compliant and undergoes regular security audits. Your data is never shared with third parties.

Most dental practices are fully set up in under 5 minutes. Create your free account, connect your vendor logins (we support auto-detection for most major vendors), and start searching. There are no contracts, no lengthy onboarding, and no training sessions required. Your team can start comparing prices and placing orders immediately.

Absolutely. ALARA includes a built-in analytics dashboard that shows your spending by vendor, spending by category, and total savings over time. You can see exactly how much you've saved compared to your previous ordering patterns. Many practices use these reports for budgeting, to negotiate better rates with vendors, or to present cost-saving results to practice owners and DSO management.

Yes. ALARA supports multi-location practices and DSOs with team management features. You can invite team members, manage vendor connections across locations, and view consolidated analytics. Each location can have its own vendor accounts while leadership sees the big picture across all sites.
