LIQUIDITY, GOING CONCERN, AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES UPDATE [Abstract] | |
LIQUIDITY, GOING CONCERN, AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES UPDATE | (2) LIQUIDITY, GOING CONCERN, AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES UPDATE The Company has historically operated with negative working capital and was able to meet its current obligations through operating cash flows and availability on its revolving line of credit. Recent decreases in operating cash flows led the Company to take certain actions including raising over $5 million in private placements as described below. In July 2017, the Company received notice of events of default and acceleration from counsel to Guaranty Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”) in connection with the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of March 29, 2016, as amended (collectively, the “Loan Agreement” or the “Credit Facility”). On December 28, 2017, following discussions and negotiations with the Bank and a number of potential investors and lenders over several months, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) and completed a private placement of $5 million of convertible senior subordinated secured notes (the “Initial Notes”) and 10 attached shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) with Palm Active Dental, LLC and Palm Global Small Cap Master Fund LP (the “Palm Investors”). Also on December 28, 2017, the Company and the Bank entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Loan Agreement (the “Fifth Amendment”), under which the Company repaid approximately $1.5 million of the term loan portion and $1.1 million of the revolving line of credit of the Loan Agreement and the Bank waived all then-existing defaults, default interest, fees, and penalties under the Credit Facility. Among other things, the Fifth Amendment increased the revolving line of credit from $1.1 million to $2.0 million, extended the maturity date of the loans under the Credit Facility to March 31, 2023 and modified the repayment terms of the term loan and the EBITDA, leverage ratio and other financial covenants under the Credit Facility. Under the Credit Facility and related pledge and security agreements, the Bank has liens and security interests on substantially all of the assets of the Company. The Company was not in compliance with a required EBITDA covenant under the Loan Agreement at June 30, 2018. On August 15, 2018, the Company entered into the First Follow-On Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Follow-On Purchase Agreement”) with PAD II, an affiliate of the Palm Investors . Under the Follow-On Purchase Agreement, on August 15, 2018, the Company sold to PAD II Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $467,000 together with one attached share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for $1,000 per share (the “Follow-On Notes” and, together with the Initial Notes, the “Notes”), which permitted the Company to regain compliance with the EBITDA covenant as permitted under the Loan Agreement. The Follow-On Notes have the same terms as the Initial Notes issued in December 2017 and are also governed by the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company was not in compliance with the required EBITDA covenant under the Loan Agreement at September 30, 2018. On October 3, 2018, the Company and the Bank entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Loan Agreement (the “Sixth Amendment”), in conjunction with the Company’s entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Mid-Atlantic Dental Services Holdings, LLC (“Mid-Atlantic Dental”) and Bronco Acquisition, Inc. (the “Merger Sub”) under which, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Mid-Atlantic Dental, as further described in Note 12. Among other things, the Sixth Amendment defers until the earlier of the closing of the Merger Agreement or February 28, 2019 the payment of certain amounts that may be otherwise due under the Credit Facility consisting of “2018-2019 Required Principal Curtailments” as defined in the Sixth Amendment totaling $300,000 and potential cure payments related to failure to achieve certain financial covenants under the Credit Facility, including the EBITDA covenant as of September 30, 2018 (“Cure Amounts”). Quarterly “Required Amortization Payments”, as defined in the Sixth Amendment, of $125,000 must be paid as scheduled. If the Merger Agreement terminates for any reason other than (i) the entry by the Company into a “Superior Proposal Termination” as defined in the Sixth Amendment resulting in the execution and delivery by Borrower of a “Superior Proposal Definitive Agreement” as defined in the Sixth Amendment, which will continue such deferral, or (ii) a termination in which the Company receives a “Termination Fee” (as defined in the Sixth Amendment) from Mid-Atlantic Dental, the Company is required to pay the Bank the 2018-2019 Required Principal Curtailment payment, all required Cure Amounts that remain outstanding and reduce the outstanding principal balance of the revolving loans under the Credit Facility to not more than $200,000 (“Total Curtailment Payments”). If the Merger Agreement terminates and the Company receives the Termination Fee, which totals $2.0 million, the Company is required to pay the Bank the greater of 50% of such Termination Fee or an amount that equals the Total Curtailment Payments. Upon closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Bank will be paid in full. See Note 7 for additional information regarding the Notes and the Credit Facility. Due to the above issues, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the closing occurs under the Merger Agreement, the Company is expected to become a wholly owned subsidiary of Mid-Atlantic Dental during the first quarter of 2019. See Note 12 for additional information regarding the Merger and the Merger Agreement. |

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract] | |
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | (3) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation/Basis of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. These financial statements present the financial position and results of operations of the Company and the dental offices (“Offices”), which are under the control of the Company. The Offices are organized as professional corporations (“P.C.s”) and the Company provides business services to the Offices under long-term management agreements (the “Management Agreements”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. The Company treats Offices as consolidated subsidiaries where it has a long-term and unilateral controlling financial interest over the assets and operations of the Offices. The Company maintains control of substantially all of its Offices via the Management Agreements. The Company is a business service organization and does not engage in the practice of dentistry or the provision of dental hygiene services. These services are provided by licensed professionals. Certain key features of these arrangements either enable the Company at any time and in its sole discretion to cause a change in the shareholder of the P.C. (i.e., ‘‘nominee shareholder’’) or allow the Company to vote the shares of stock held by the owner of the P.C. and to elect a majority of the board of directors of the P.C. The accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations reflect revenue, which is the amount billed to patients less contractual adjustments. Direct expenses consist of all the expenses incurred in operating the Offices and paid by the Company. Under the Management Agreements, the Company assumes responsibility for the management of most aspects of the Offices’ business (the Company does not engage in the practice of dentistry or the provision of dental hygiene services), including personnel recruitment and training; comprehensive administrative, business and marketing support and advice; and facilities, equipment, and support personnel as required to operate the practices. The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, which provides for consolidation of variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has concluded that the P.C.s meet the definition of VIEs as defined by this standard and that the Company is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. This conclusion was reached because the Company has the power to direct significant activities of the VIEs and the Company is obligated to absorb losses of and/or provide rights to receive benefits from the VIEs. Revenue Revenue is generally recognized when services are provided and is reported at estimated net realizable amounts due from insurance companies, preferred provider and health maintenance organizations (i.e., third-party payors) and patients for services rendered, net of contractual and other adjustments. Dental services are billed and collected by the Company in the name of the Offices. Revenue under certain third-party payor agreements is subject to audit and retroactive adjustments. To the Company’s knowledge, there are no material claims, disputes or other unsettled matters that exist concerning third-party reimbursements as of September 30, 2018. Most of the Company’s patients are insured under third-party payor agreements. The Company’s billing system generates contractual adjustments for each patient encounter based on fee schedules for the patient’s insurance plan. The services provided are attached to the patient’s fee schedule based on the insurance the patient has at the time the service is provided. Therefore, the revenue that is recorded by the billing system is based on insurance contractual amounts. Additionally, each patient at the time of service signs a form agreeing that the patient is ultimately responsible for the contracted fee if the insurance company does not pay the fee for any reason. Note Receivable A note receivable was created as part of a dental Office acquisition, of which approximately $9,000 in principal amount was outstanding at September 30, 2018. The note has equal monthly principal and interest amortization payments and a maturity date of October 31, 2018. The note bears interest at 6%, which is accrued monthly. If the note is uncollectible, an allowance for doubtful accounts will be created. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts for the note as of September 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017. Intangible Assets The Company’s dental practice acquisitions have involved the purchase of tangible and intangible assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of the acquired dental Offices. As part of the purchase price allocation, the Company allocated the purchase price to the The Management Agreements cannot be terminated by a P.C. without cause, consisting primarily of bankruptcy or material default by the Company. If facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived and intangible assets may be impaired, the Company will perform an evaluation of recoverability. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset will be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow value is required. There were no impairment write-downs associated with the Company’s long-lived and intangible assets during the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. Stock-Based Compensation Expense The Company recognizes compensation expense on a straight line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Total stock-based compensation expense included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $109,000 and $74,000, respectively, related to stock options and restricted stock. Total stock-based compensation expense included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $219,000 and $160,000, respectively, related to stock options. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was used to estimate the option fair values. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are expected stock price volatility, the expected pre-vesting forfeiture rate, expected dividend rate and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). Expected volatility was calculated based upon actual historical stock price movements over the most recent period ended September 30, 2018 equal to the expected option term. Expected pre-vesting forfeitures were estimated based on historical pre-vesting forfeitures over the most recent period ended September 30, 2018 for the expected option term. The fair value of restricted stock granted to independent directors in 2017 and 2018 was calculated by taking the product of the number of shares granted times the stock price on the day the restricted stock was granted and spreading this value over the vesting period of the restricted stock.

REVENUE [Abstract] | |
REVENUE | (4) REVENUE On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606 using the modified retrospective method applied to all contracts as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting under prior guidance. The Company’s revenue includes premium and service revenues. Service revenue includes net patient revenue that is recorded based upon established billing rates, less allowances for contractual adjustments, and are recognized as services are provided. The Company identified service revenue associated with the placement of orthodontic braces and crown and bridge procedures as contracts that are affected by the adoption of Topic 606. For these two revenue streams, the Company identified distinct performance obligations for the placement of braces and for crown and bridge procedures and allocated transaction prices to these performance obligations using the available observable data and bottom up methods. Under Topic 606, for contracts involving orthodontic procedures, the Company recognizes 40% of the contract amount when the orthodontic braces are initially placed on the patient, 45% of the contract amount monthly during the average 20 month term of the contract, and a final 15% of the contract amount in the last month of the contract. This coincides with the Company’s analysis of the required performance obligations under the Company’s orthodontic service revenue contracts. Under Topic 606, for crown and bridge procedures, revenue associated with the final placement of the permanent crown will be recognized at the point in time this performance obligation is satisfied. The Company recorded a net decrease to the opening accumulated deficit of approximately $225,000 as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact to revenue and cost of sales of adopting Topic 606, with the impact primarily related to revenue related to orthodontic brace and crown and bridge procedures. The Company analyzed the net effect of Topic 606 as if it had not been implemented in 2018, and the differences in each line item are immaterial. |

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS [Abstract] | |
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS | (6) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS The Company’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (“2005 Plan”), terminated in March 2015. The 2005 Plan provided for the grant of incentive stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and stock grants to eligible employees (including officers and employee-directors) and non-statutory stock options to eligible employees, directors and consultants. As of September 30, 2018, there were 298,750 vested options and 1,250 unvested options granted under the 2005 Plan that remained outstanding in accordance with their terms and there were no shares available for issuance under the 2005 Plan due to its termination. The Company’s shareholders approved the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”) in June 2015. The 2015 Plan replaced the 2005 Plan. The Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2015 Plan at the June 2018 annual meeting of shareholders to reserve an additional 200,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance. After this amendment, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be delivered to participants and their beneficiaries under the 2015 Plan is 400,000. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, stock appreciation right awards, restricted stock awards, stock unit awards and other stock-based awards to eligible recipients. The objectives of the 2015 Plan are to attract and retain the best possible candidates for positions of responsibility and provide for additional performance incentives by providing eligible individuals with the opportunity to acquire equity in the Company. The 2015 Plan is administered by a committee (the “Committee”) of two or more outside directors from the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Committee determines the eligible individuals to whom awards under the 2015 Plan may be granted, as well as the time or times at which awards will be granted, the number of shares subject to awards to be granted to any eligible individual, the term of the award, vesting terms and conditions and any other terms and conditions of the grant in addition to those contained in the 2015 Plan. Each grant under the 2015 Plan will be confirmed by and subject to the terms of an award agreement. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of each option granted with the following weighted average assumptions: Quarters Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, Valuation Assumptions 2017 2018 2017 2018 Expected life (1) 4.00 3.75 4.56 4.04 Risk-free interest rate (2) 1.81 % 2.84 % 1.79 % 2.75 % Expected volatility (3) 55 % 92 % 50 % 87 % Expected dividend yield - - - - Expected forfeiture (4) 30.00 % 26.32 % 11.70 % 28.57 % (1) The expected life, in years, of stock options is estimated based on historical experience. (2) The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury bills whose term is consistent with the expected life of the stock options. (3) The expected volatility is estimated based on historical and current stock price data for the Company. (4) Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience. A summary of option activity as of September 30, 2018, and changes during the quarter then ended, is presented below: Number of Options Weighted- Average Exercise Price Range of Exercise Prices Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (thousands) Outstanding at January 1, 2018 560,666 $ 14.99 $ 4.30 - $19.75 3.4 $ 55 Granted 73,500 $ 6.86 $ 5.30 - $8.00 Cancelled (91,666 ) $ 9.60 $ 4.30 - $19.75 Outstanding at September 30, 2018 542,500 $ 13.36 $ 4.30 - $18.95 3.6 $ 17 Exercisable at September 30, 2018 351,584 $ 15.56 $ 10.04 - $18.95 2.4 $ - The weighted average grant date fair values of options granted during the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were $4.36 per share and $5.68 per share, respectively. As of September 30, 2018, there was approximately $512,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.45 years. A summary of restricted stock activity as of September 30, 2018, and changes during the quarter then ended, is presented below: Shares Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair-Value Balance at January 1, 2018 8,000 $ 13.50 Granted 18,000 $ 5.50 Vested (7,000 ) $ 11.21 Balance at September 30, 2018 19,000 $ 6.77 As of September 30, 2018, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense from unvested restricted stock was $107,000 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.49 years. As of September 30, 2018, 19,000 shares were expected to vest in the future. See Note 12 for a summary of the treatment of options and restricted stock in the Merger. |
DEBT
DEBT | 9 Months Ended |

DEBT [Abstract] | |
DEBT | (7) DEBT On December 28, 2017, the Company and the Bank entered into the Fifth Amendment, under which the Company repaid approximately $1.5 million of the term loan portion and approximately $1.1 million of the revolving line of credit of the Credit Facility with net proceeds of the Palm Investors private placement discussed below, and the Bank waived all outstanding defaults, default interest, fees, and penalties under the Credit Facility. Among other things, the Fifth Amendment increased the revolving line of credit from $1.1 million to $2.0 million, extended the maturity date of the loans under the Credit Facility to March 31, 2023, and modified the repayment terms of the term loan and the EBITDA, leverage ratio and other financial covenants under the Credit Facility. The outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan (as defined in the Credit Facility) was $6.125 million as of September 30, 2018, and approximately $186,000 was drawn on the $2.0 million revolving line of credit as of September 30, 2018. Under the Fifth Amendment, the Term Loan bears interest as follows: Funded Debt / EBITDA (each as defined in the Fifth LIBOR SPREAD Greater than 3.0 LIBOR + 3.75% Less than or equal to 3.0 but greater than 2.5 LIBOR + 3.25% Less than or equal to 2.5 but greater than 2.0 LIBOR + 2.90% Less than or equal to 2.0 LIBOR + 2.50% Effective January 1, 2018, a commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of the revolving line of credit is assessed each quarter in the amount of 0.25% per annum. The Company must pay the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan as follows: (i) $125,000 on the last day of each calendar quarter in 2018, (ii) $100,000 on or before the date that is 30 days after the date the Form 10-Q for the second fiscal quarter of 2018 is filed by the Company with the SEC but only if EBITDA (as defined in the Fifth Amendment) measured for the 12 months ending June 30, 2018 is equal to or more than $2,400,000, (iii) $175,000 on March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, (iv) $100,000 on or before the date that is 30 days after the date the Form 10-Q for the second fiscal quarter of 2019 is filed by the Company with the SEC, but only if EBITDA measured for the 12 months ending June 30, 2019 is equal to or more than $3,000,000, (v) $200,000 on September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2019, and (vi) $250,000 on the last day of each calendar quarter thereafter, commencing with March 31, 2020, with a final payment in an aggregate amount equal to the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan on March 31, 2023. In addition, the Company must make mandatory prepayments commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2019 equal to the “Excess Cash Flow Amount” as defined in the Fifth Amendment. In any event, the Company must make payments so that the principal balance of the Term Loan is $5,750,000 as of December 31, 2018, $4,750,000 as of December 31, 2019, $3,600,000 as of December 31, 2020, $2,100,000 as of December 31, 2021, and $750,000 as of December 31, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA was $803,000, and was $1.0 million after adding back Bank-allowed one-time adjustments of $221,000, which was less than the required Bank covenant amount of $1.4 million. The one-time adjustments include $468,000 related to the PAD II financing discussed in Note 2, $66,000 related to accounting and valuation consulting services the Company utilized in connection with the Palm Investors financing completed in December 2017, and reduced by $313,000 of Adjusted EBITDA associated with discontinued operations. As a result, all Bank debt totaling approximately $6.3 million is classified as current as of September 30, 2018. On October 3, 2018, the Company and the Bank entered into the Sixth Amendment, in conjunction with the Company’s entering into the Merger Agreement with Mid-Atlantic Dental as further described in Note 12 below. Among other things, the Sixth Amendment defers until the earlier of the closing of the Merger Agreement or February 28, 2019 the payment of certain amounts that may be otherwise due under the Credit Facility and potential cure payments related to failure to achieve certain financial covenants under the Credit Facility. For additional information on the Sixth Amendment and the Company’s payments due or waived under the Credit Facility, see Note 2 above. Upon closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Bank will be paid in full. Convertible Senior Subordinated Secured Notes On December 28, 2017, the Company entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with the Palm Investors. Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company sold the Initial Notes. The Company used approximately $2.6 million of the net proceeds under the Securities Purchase Agreement to repay the Bank as described above. The balance of the net proceeds was used for vendor payments, working capital, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes. On August 15, 2018, the Company entered into the Follow-On Purchase Agreement with PAD II. Under the Follow-On Purchase Agreement, the Company sold the Follow-On Notes, which permitted the Company to regain compliance with the EBITDA covenant as permitted under the Loan Agreement. The net proceeds from the Follow-On Notes were used for working capital and capital expenditures. See Note 2 for additional discussion of these transactions. The Notes and attached shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible at the option of the holders into shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”), which in turn are convertible at the option of the holders into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $5.00 per share. Assuming (i) the conversion of the Notes and Series A Preferred Stock into Series B Preferred Stock and (ii) conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into the Company’s Common Stock, the Palm Parties beneficially own in the aggregate 1,132,444 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 37.6% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock as of September 30, 2018. Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction, as defined in the Notes, the Company must repay all unpaid principal amount of the Notes plus an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid interest and the amount of interest that would have been paid from the date of such repayment through the maturity date had the Notes remained outstanding to such date (a “Mandatory Prepayment”). A Fundamental Transaction includes, among other things, one or more related transactions that result in holders of the Company’s Common Stock immediately prior to such transactions owning 50% or less of the surviving company or owning relative interests in the surviving company that are not substantially the same as prior to such transactions, liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or a change in the majority of the Board over a 12 month period. Other than in connection with a Mandatory Prepayment, the Notes may not be prepaid by the Company without the consent of holders of the majority of the Notes. The Notes mature on September 30, 2023 and accrue interest on a quarterly basis at a rate of 5% per annum until December 28, 2020. Thereafter, interest accrues on a quarterly basis at a rate of (i) 5% per annum if the VWAP (as defined in the Notes) for each of any 30 consecutive Trading Days (as defined in the Notes) during the immediately preceding quarter is less than $15 per share of Common Stock, (ii) 2.5% per annum if the VWAP for each of any 30 consecutive Trading Days during the immediately preceding quarter is equal to or greater than $15 per share of Common Stock and equal to or less than $20 per share of Common Stock, and (iii) 0% if the VWAP for each of any 30 consecutive Trading Days during the immediately preceding quarter exceeds $20 per share of Common Stock. Subject to the terms of the Subordination Agreement (described below), which prohibits the payment of cash interest unless the Total Cash Flow Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Fifth Amendment, is less than 2:1, the Company has the option to pay interest in cash or by increasing the principal amount of the Notes in the amount of any unpaid and accrued interest. Approximately $195,000 was recognized as interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the increased liability is included in convertible senior subordinated secured notes, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Certain terms of the Notes (the “Embedded Derivatives”) meet the definition of a derivative that requires bifurcation from the Notes and separate accounting under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company, the Bank and the Palm Parties have entered into a Subordination Agreement and the Company and the Palm Parties entered into a Security Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement. Under the Subordination Agreement, the Palm Parties and their successors in interest subordinated their rights under the Notes, the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock to the Bank in respect of the Credit Facility. Under the Security Agreement, the Company granted the holders of the Notes a subordinate security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company granted the Palm Parties and their successors in interest the right to demand registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of the resale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series B Preferred Stock. The Company also granted certain “piggy-back” registration rights in the Registration Rights Agreement. If the Company failed to meet certain performance targets set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Palm Parties had the exclusive right, voting separately as a class, to designate to the Board a third Palm Investor director, in which case the Board was required to take all actions necessary to cause and accept the resignation of one additional current director and cause such third Palm Investor director to be appointed as a director. Further, if the Company (a) failed to meet any of the modified performance targets set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement or (b) failed to comply with a financial covenant under the Loan Agreement, the Board was required to immediately form a special committee of the Board with (i) the power to initiate searches for, and to recruit, retain or replace the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of the Company, (ii) the ability to retain an executive search firm, at the Company’s expense, to manage any search for Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer initiated by the search committee, and (iii) the ability to engage such advisors, at the Company’s expense, as necessary to assist with the search committee’s efforts. Any search committee created due to the Company’s failure to meet any of the modified performance targets would be chaired by one of the Palm Investor directors and consist solely of independent directors, while any search committee created due to the Company’s failure to comply with the financial covenants would be composed of a majority of Palm Parties directors. The Company failed to meet certain performance targets as of June 30, 2018. As a result, on July 16, 2018, Paul Valuck D.D.S. resigned from the Board and Burton J. Rubin was appointed to the Board representing the third Palm Parties director. In addition, the Board has formed a search committee for the purposes described above. |

DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | (8) DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ASC Topic 825, ‘‘Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments,’’ requires disclosure about the fair value of financial instruments. Carrying amounts for all financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities approximate estimated fair values due to the short maturity of those instruments. The fair values of the Company’s long-term debt are based on similar rates currently available to the Company. The Company believes the book value approximates fair value for the notes receivable. |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES | (9) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES The Company follows ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities that are observable for the asset or liability; or Level 3: Unobservable pricing inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations. ASC Topic 820 requires financial assets and liabilities to be classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. There were no transfers between the fair value hierarchy levels during the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The following table represents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2018 by level within the fair value hierarchy: December 31, 2017 September 30, 2018 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Contingent Liabilities $ - $ - $ 321,000 $ - $ - $ 321,000 Embedded Derivatives derived from the Notes $ - $ - $ 170,000 $ - $ - $ 43,000 Contingent Liabilities As part of an Office acquisition completed in 2009, the Company recorded contingent liabilities to recognize an estimated amount to be paid as part of the acquisition agreement. These contingent liabilities are recorded at estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition, are payable upon the exercise of a put option by the seller beginning four years after the acquisition date and no later than ten years after the acquisition date, and are calculated at a multiple of the then trailing 12 months’ operating cash flows. The Company remeasures the contingent liability to fair value each reporting date until the contingency is resolved. Any changes to the fair value are recognized into the income statement when determined. As of September 30, 2018, approximately $321,000 of contingent liabilities were recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets in other long-term obligations. Embedded Derivatives derived from the Notes are a derivative liability bifurcated from the Notes, as described in Note 7. The fair value of the Embedded Derivatives was determined as the difference in the fair values of the Notes with and without the embedded features. The fair value analysis utilized Monte Carlo simulations and probability-weighted discounted cash flow valuation techniques, which included the use of significant unobservable inputs. Those inputs included assumptions regarding the likelihood of occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction and projected financial results of the Company over the term of the Notes. Other significant inputs included the Company’s historical stock price volatility and risk-adjusted borrowing rates. Sensitivity of Significant Unobservable Inputs The following is a discussion of the sensitivity of significant unobservable inputs, the interrelationships between those inputs and other unobservable inputs used in recurring fair value measurement and how those inputs might magnify or mitigate the effect of changes in the unobservable inputs on the fair value measurement. Contingent liabilities The significant unobservable input used in fair value measurement of the Company’s contingent liability is the operating cash flow of one Office where the dentist has a put option whose value is calculated based on that Office’s operating cash flow over a 12 month period. A significant increase or decrease in the performance of this Office would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. Embedded Derivatives derived from the Notes The significant unobservable input used in fair value measurement of the Company’s Embedded Derivatives derived from the Notes is the estimated likelihood of a Fundamental Transaction. A significant increase or decrease in the likelihood of a Fundamental Transaction taking place would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. As of September 30, 2018, the value of the Embedded Derivative changed from previous periods given the probability of a Fundamental Transaction taking place in the near term in light of the Merger Agreement entered into by the Company on October 3, 2018. |

At the effective time of the Merger, each share (each share, except for the shares described in this paragraph in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) below, an “Eligible Share”) of the Company’s Common Stock then outstanding (other than (i) those shares owned by the Company, Mid-Atlantic Dental or any subsidiary of Mid-Atlantic Dental (which will be cancelled without any consideration), (ii) any shares as to which dissenters’ rights have been perfected and not withdrawn or lost (which will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a payment determined in accordance with the dissenters’ rights), and (iii) any shares of Company Common Stock subject to vesting, repurchase or other lapse of restrictions) will be automatically converted into the right to receive (A) $10.62 per Eligible Share in cash, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes (the “Cash Consideration”), and (B) one contractual contingent value right (each, a “CVR”), which represents the right to receive a contingent cash payment of $0.13 per Eligible Share, less certain permitted expense amounts calculated on a per CVR basis (the “CVR Consideration” and, together with the Cash Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”), subject to and in accordance with a Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “CVR Agreement”) to be entered into between Mid-Atlantic Dental and a rights agent. The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights, in which the Company may be required to pay Mid-Atlantic Dental a termination fee of $2.0 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances. At the effective time of the Merger, each then-outstanding unexercised option to acquire shares of the Company’s Common Stock will be cancelled in exchange for an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of $10.62 over the exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to such option multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such option. Such “in the money” options will also receive one CVR per share of Common Stock subject to such option. So-called “underwater” or “out of the money” options, where the exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to such options is more than or equal to $10.62, will be cancelled without consideration and will not receive CVRs.. Each then-outstanding share of restricted stock subject solely to time-based vesting, repurchase or other lapse of restrictions will be cancelled in exchange for (i) an amount in cash equal to $10.62 (subject to any applicable withholding tax), and (ii) one CVR. For further information on the proposed Merger, the Merger Agreement and the CVR Agreement, please refer to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 3, 2018. The transaction is currently expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2019, subject to shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions. Sixth Amendment to Loan Agreement On October 3, 2018, the Company entered into the Sixth Amendment with the Bank. Among other things, the Sixth Amendment defers until the earlier of the closing of the Merger Agreement or February 28, 2019 the payment of certain amounts that may be otherwise due under the Credit Facility and potential cure payments related to failure to achieve certain financial covenants under the Credit Facility. For additional information on the Sixth Amendment and the Company’s payments due or waived under the Credit Facility, see Notes 2 and 7 above. |

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation/Basis of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation/Basis of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. These financial statements present the financial position and results of operations of the Company and the dental offices (“Offices”), which are under the control of the Company. The Offices are organized as professional corporations (“P.C.s”) and the Company provides business services to the Offices under long-term management agreements (the “Management Agreements”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. The Company treats Offices as consolidated subsidiaries where it has a long-term and unilateral controlling financial interest over the assets and operations of the Offices. The Company maintains control of substantially all of its Offices via the Management Agreements. The Company is a business service organization and does not engage in the practice of dentistry or the provision of dental hygiene services. These services are provided by licensed professionals. Certain key features of these arrangements either enable the Company at any time and in its sole discretion to cause a change in the shareholder of the P.C. (i.e., ‘‘nominee shareholder’’) or allow the Company to vote the shares of stock held by the owner of the P.C. and to elect a majority of the board of directors of the P.C. The accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations reflect revenue, which is the amount billed to patients less contractual adjustments. Direct expenses consist of all the expenses incurred in operating the Offices and paid by the Company. Under the Management Agreements, the Company assumes responsibility for the management of most aspects of the Offices’ business (the Company does not engage in the practice of dentistry or the provision of dental hygiene services), including personnel recruitment and training; comprehensive administrative, business and marketing support and advice; and facilities, equipment, and support personnel as required to operate the practices. The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, which provides for consolidation of variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has concluded that the P.C.s meet the definition of VIEs as defined by this standard and that the Company is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. This conclusion was reached because the Company has the power to direct significant activities of the VIEs and the Company is obligated to absorb losses of and/or provide rights to receive benefits from the VIEs. |
Revenue | Revenue Revenue is generally recognized when services are provided and is reported at estimated net realizable amounts due from insurance companies, preferred provider and health maintenance organizations (i.e., third-party payors) and patients for services rendered, net of contractual and other adjustments. Dental services are billed and collected by the Company in the name of the Offices. Revenue under certain third-party payor agreements is subject to audit and retroactive adjustments. To the Company’s knowledge, there are no material claims, disputes or other unsettled matters that exist concerning third-party reimbursements as of September 30, 2018. Most of the Company’s patients are insured under third-party payor agreements. The Company’s billing system generates contractual adjustments for each patient encounter based on fee schedules for the patient’s insurance plan. The services provided are attached to the patient’s fee schedule based on the insurance the patient has at the time the service is provided. Therefore, the revenue that is recorded by the billing system is based on insurance contractual amounts. Additionally, each patient at the time of service signs a form agreeing that the patient is ultimately responsible for the contracted fee if the insurance company does not pay the fee for any reason. |
Note Receivable | Note Receivable A note receivable was created as part of a dental Office acquisition, of which approximately $9,000 in principal amount was outstanding at September 30, 2018. The note has equal monthly principal and interest amortization payments and a maturity date of October 31, 2018. The note bears interest at 6%, which is accrued monthly. If the note is uncollectible, an allowance for doubtful accounts will be created. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts for the note as of September 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017. |
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets The Company’s dental practice acquisitions have involved the purchase of tangible and intangible assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of the acquired dental Offices. As part of the purchase price allocation, the Company allocated the purchase price to the The Management Agreements cannot be terminated by a P.C. without cause, consisting primarily of bankruptcy or material default by the Company. If facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived and intangible assets may be impaired, the Company will perform an evaluation of recoverability. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset will be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow value is required. There were no impairment write-downs associated with the Company’s long-lived and intangible assets during the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. |
Stock-Based Compensation Expense | Stock-Based Compensation Expense The Company recognizes compensation expense on a straight line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Total stock-based compensation expense included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $109,000 and $74,000, respectively, related to stock options and restricted stock. Total stock-based compensation expense included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $219,000 and $160,000, respectively, related to stock options. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was used to estimate the option fair values. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are expected stock price volatility, the expected pre-vesting forfeiture rate, expected dividend rate and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). Expected volatility was calculated based upon actual historical stock price movements over the most recent period ended September 30, 2018 equal to the expected option term. Expected pre-vesting forfeitures were estimated based on historical pre-vesting forfeitures over the most recent period ended September 30, 2018 for the expected option term. The fair value of restricted stock granted to independent directors in 2017 and 2018 was calculated by taking the product of the number of shares granted times the stock price on the day the restricted stock was granted and spreading this value over the vesting period of the restricted stock. |
