business dental corporate us
BENCODENTAL is operated by Benco Dental Company.
What it's used for
- The address space carries corporate infrastructure for a dental product distributor, evidenced by the netnames
LVLT-BENCO-1-8-34-63andFRTR-BENCO-DENTAL-01and the reverse DNS recordbounty.benco.com. - The AS announces 512 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes with only 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small, self-contained corporate network rather than a transit or access provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of internal corporate systems, web endpoints, and backhaul for Benco Dental's distribution operations.
Notable
- Registrants for both announced prefixes are listed as Benco Dental Company, consistent with the AS holder.
- Benco Dental is the largest privately owned, full-service distributor of dental supplies and equipment in the United States.
- The inventory consists of two /24 blocks, one allocated by Level 3 (LVLT) and one by Frontier (FRTR), reflecting leased or acquired address space for corporate use.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
