Dental Marketing in Omaha, NE

The Omaha dental market is uniquely served by two dental schools within the state (UNMC in Lincoln and Creighton in Omaha), giving the metro exceptional specialty depth for its population size. Premium concentration runs through West Omaha, Elkhorn, and the Dundee and Happy Hollow corridors. Competitive density is moderate and heavily weighted toward the western suburban expansion corridor.

Omaha's economy is anchored by insurance and financial services (Berkshire Hathaway, Mutual of Omaha, Union Pacific Railroad, TD Ameritrade, First National Bank), agribusiness (ConAgra Foods headquartered here historically), healthcare (CHI Health, Nebraska Medicine, Methodist Health, Boys Town), Offutt Air Force Base and US Strategic Command, and higher education (Creighton, UNMC, UNO).
