This year marks 25 years in business for Altus Dental™, a dental and vision benefits provider serving more than 400,000 members across Massachusetts and the surrounding New England region.
The company is entering its next quarter-century poised for continuing growth.
Altus Dental has built its strong reputation in the regional market on the foundation of its dedication to service. The company’s locally based team is focused on providing exemplary, problem-solving support for businesses of all sizes across the region — and brokers and HR teams at businesses of all sizes are noticing.
“We place every case we can with Altus Dental and the number one reason is the service,” said Bruce Schwartzman, principal at Black Horse Insurance, an employee benefits agency based in Winchester, Mass. that primarily serves clients ranging from two to 85 employees. “Altus is one of the few companies where we have a dedicated representative who gets us quotes quickly, takes care of enrollment issues, and connects us with the right people for billing.”
This personalized approach, which is a large part of what company leaders call the Altus Advantage, has led to Altus Dental nearly doubling the size of its membership in just the last four years while maintaining an impressive 94% member satisfaction rate.
“Our recent growth has been deliberate and disciplined,” said Altus Dental Vice President of Sales and Business Relations, James Kinney. “We’ve worked hard to remain nimble, so that as we expand, we continue to deliver the service and trusted partnerships that have defined us from the start. The confidence we’ve earned from the businesses and individuals we serve gave us the opportunity to thoughtfully scale our proven model and deepen our impact across the community.”
Whether you’re a small business with a handful of employees, one of the region’s largest employers, or somewhere in between, all Altus Dental members enjoy comprehensive coverage at affordable rates with extensive, flexible options for both dental and vision insurance, more than 11,000 participating dental locations locally, an exceptional customer service team that goes above and beyond, and easy one-stop shopping for a simple, streamlined process.
Altus Dental’s benefit enhancements are designed to support better outcomes and stronger patient relationships, including the insurer’s SmileMore initiative, powered by PreViser, which offers personalized oral health assessments and additional benefits for at-risk patients; its Preventive Rewards Program, which ensures most preventive and diagnostic services do not count toward a patient’s annual maximum; and its Under 13 Benefits, which provides comprehensive coverage for children under 13 with no cost or deductible for covered services. Together, these offerings help practices deliver affordable, prevention-focused care while strengthening patient loyalty and long-term oral health.
“Our products have always been and always will be designed with our members’ unique needs in mind,” said Kinney. “Over 25 years, we’re proud to have grown in a way that stays true to who we are.”
The Altus Advantage extends beyond the day-to-day operations of Altus Dental. As the company has grown, it has taken a proactive approach to giving back philanthropically in ways that strengthen the oral health system and expand access to care in traditionally underserved communities.
In 2025, Altus Dental’s philanthropic efforts helped Whittier Street Health Center in Boston purchase new equipment and add additional treatment rooms to its Center for Health Equity Research. Altus also awarded a grant to help the Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program add endodontics and same-day prosthodontics to its scope of same-day, on-site oral health services, and launched a partnership with MassChallenge to support startup companies looking for innovative solutions to pressing issues facing the oral health care system at large.
These grants are all on top of legacy programs Altus Dental continues to support in the community, including the company’s named scholarship program at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine.
“Looking ahead, we are ready to carry this level of success and community impact into our next 25 years,” said Kinney.

The small business dental and vision benefit solution.
Altus Dental believes every business - regardless of size - deserves access to affordable dental and vision benefit plans for their employees. That’s why we remain committed to providing high-quality, cost-effective and flexible plans for small businesses across Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island. In fact, one of Altus Dental’s greatest areas of growth is among small businesses with 25 or fewer employees. So, while other insurance carriers have announced they are abandoning the local small group market due to regulatory challenges, you can count on Altus Dental to continue to meet the needs of local businesses big and small.
