Executive Summary

In November 2025, Advanced Dental, a practice with offices in Berlin and Cromwell, Connecticut, was hit by the Sinobi ransomware group, which published exfiltrated files on November 24, 2025. Forensic analysis of the leaked dataset confirmed exposure of about 19,500 unique email addresses and 15,500 phone numbers, plus a high-risk subset of roughly 2,400 unique Social Security numbers, along with names. The breach is catalogued by DataBreach.com.

ObscureIQ assessment: High risk of identity theft, insurance fraud, and targeted scams using treatment or billing pretexts. Healthcare affiliation also creates privacy harm even when the record set is limited.

Breach Impact

Most affected individuals had contact information (names, emails, phone numbers) exposed, but a subset of roughly 2,400 had Social Security numbers leaked, creating heightened identity-theft risk for those individuals. Association with a dental practice adds modest privacy sensitivity and enables convincing treatment- or billing-themed scams.
