Oryx Ranks Among the Top 1,000 Overall and Top 100 Software Companies for Second Year in a Row
McLean, VA — August 12, 2026 at 9am ET — Oryx Dental, the leader in clinically rooted, cloud-based, and AI-powered dental practice management software (DPMS), today announced that it has been recognized as #863 overall and #81 in Software on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy.
Dental practices are increasingly replacing legacy on-premise systems with cloud-based platforms and adopting AI-powered workflows. As this trend grows, Oryx continues to gain market share by helping practices improve both clinical and business performance. The company’s placement on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list reflects the company’s continued growth and innovation as it helps shape the future of dental technology.
“Dentistry is at an inflection point. The future belongs to practices embracing modern, AI-powered technology,” said Rania Saleh, DDS, MSD, Founder and CEO of Oryx. “Oryx’s mission has always been to give clinicians the tools they need to provide exceptional patient care while building thriving businesses. Being recognized by Inc. for the third consecutive year is validation that we’re solving real challenges for dentists, and it’s only the beginning of what we believe Oryx can achieve.”
This is the third consecutive year that Oryx has been named to the Inc. 5000 list. Additionally, this year marks the second time that Oryx has been listed within the top 1,000 spots overall and the top 100 Software companies, representing the company’s continued revenue, customer, and team growth.
The Inc. 5000 List honor comes in the middle of a busy year for Oryx. In 2026 to date, the company:
- Announced a partnership with the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) as the first and only DPMS recognized by the organization for its members
- Continued to invest in and make updates to the company’s suite of AI products, such as AI Transcribe and Summarize, AI Exam Charting, AI Voice Perio Charting, and more

- Partnered with the Seattle Study Club (SSC) as a sponsor and to launch a new scholarship for SSC members
- Marked the company’s 10th anniversary in business

- And more
“Every company on the Inc. 5000 has a story of perseverance, smart decision making, and a refusal to sit still,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Their growth reflects more than strong financial performance—it reflects creativity, resilience, and the customer focus required to build companies that make a lasting impact. We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement.”
