Phoenix resident Jorge Quinteros keeps his customers drilling and filling with his mobile dental equipment repair service franchise – Dental Fix Rx.

Launched in September, the franchise is the fourth in Arizona. Quinteros services up to 350 dental offices in the Phoenix area. Before Dental Fix Rx, dentists had to wait for dealers to repair or replace essential equipment.

“I’ve had past professional experience ... caring for dentist equipment; but when I found Dental Fix Rx, I saw a better business model that I knew I had to be a part of,” Quinteros said. “My van hit the road in September and I’ve already received tremendous gratitude from local dentists for not having to wait days-to-weeks for equipment repairs.”

Quinteros went through an intensive eight-week training with Dental Fix Rx before becoming a franchisee. With his training and prior experience with dental equipment, plus the fully equipped mobile service center van, Quinteros can quickly repair or replace malfunctioning equipment. Generally, Quinteros can respond to an emergency call within 24 hours. Replacement equipment is available at a competitive price, which helps the dentists' bottom line when patients are waiting for dental services.

“My mobile service center van allows me to drive directly to the problem the dentist is having and perform repairs on-site," Quinteros said. "This allows me to be the faster fix and gives me an affordable competitive edge over other repair options. Being the owner and operator of my Dental Fix Rx business, I’m able to see firsthand the difference I’m making for dental practices within my community.”
