Technology Partner Innovations, LLC ("TPI")	Technology Partner Innovations, LLC ("TPI") In fiscal 2019, we entered into an agreement with Cure Partners to form TPI, which offers a cloud-based practice management software, NaVetor, to its customers. Patterson and Cure Partners each contributed net assets of $4,000 to form TPI. Patterson and Cure Partners each contributed additional net assets of $1,000 and $1,000 during fiscal 2023 and 2022, respectively, and no additional net assets were contributed during fiscal 2024. We have determined that TPI is a variable interest entity, and we consolidate the results of operations of TPI as we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of TPI. Since TPI was formed, there have been no changes in ownership interests. As of April 27, 2024, we had noncontrolling interests of $588 on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. During fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest was $412, $959 and $1,496, respectively.
