Rock Dental Brands hires new CFO

Little Rock-based Rock Dental Brands has named Abhi Nyatee as its new Chief Financial Officer. In this role, Nyatee will serve as a strategic and operational advisor to the executive leadership team.

I look forward to working alongside this talented team to build on the company’s momentum and create a scalable, efficient, and future-ready organization.”
