Operating roles

Roles before final structure.

The exact legal and ownership structure should be counsel-led. This page focuses on who contributes what to make the model credible.

Dentistry, license, clinical trust

  • Reputation and care quality

Mako, growth, platform

Structure note

Florida generally requires licensed dentists to own the clinical practice entity. A clean path keeps Nuvana Dental clinician-led while Mako remains the technology company that can license or provide software/services with healthcare counsel review.

Platform note

Mako Core should remain the horizontal AI-native business operating system. Mako for Dental can become the first specialized product/configuration. Nuvana Dental is the customer/reference implementation that proves the patient experience and generates real workflow learning.
