Brighter, a Los Angeles, CA-based platform that connects vetted dentists and patients, closed $15m in Series C funding.
The round, which brought the total amount raised to date to $28m, was led by Tenaya Capital, with participation from existing investors Mayfield Fund and Benchmark.
The company intends to use the funds to further accelerate the geographic expansion of its service across the U.S.
Led by Jake Winebaum, CEO and Founder, Brighter provides self-pay patients with free access to pre-negotiated prices at vetted dentists. It pre-negotiates the rates of over 500 procedures at its approved dentists to save on their dental costs.
The service provides comprehensive profiles on its dentists including:
– dentists’ education and credentials,
– office amenities,
– patient reviews,
– appointment schedules,
– price (both typical uninsured prices and exclusive Brighter prices), and
– videos and photos.
