    Pittson, PA (PRWEB) July 07, 2011

    Benco Dental, the nation’s fastest-growing distributor of dental products and equipment, today announced plans to acquire Dental Equipment Specialist, Inc. This will be Benco Dental’s tenth acquisition since 2008.

    Headquartered in Bakersfield, California, Dental Equipment Specialist, Inc. specializes in equipment sales and repair. Once acquired, it will become Benco Dental’s Bakersfield branch and will service the Central Valley market.

    “The acquisition of Dental Equipment Specialist fits well with our business and development strategy,” said Chuck Cohen, managing director of Benco Dental. “This company, like ours, is sharply focused on customer satisfaction and its location helps to further our westward expansion.”

    Dental Equipment Specialist and its President, Tom Garstka, have been serving the Bakersfield area for more than twenty years. Garstka and his team will remain in their current positions with Benco Dental.

    “At Dental Equipment Specialist, we constantly seek ways in which we can enhance our services and offer more value to our customers,” Garstka said. “Now, as part of Benco Dental, we can offer customers more product selection and an even better customer experience.”
