Note (for the context of your sentence, and for the sake of example):

\"provide services to dentists\": 67 google hits
\"provides services to dentists\": 11 google hits
\"render services to dentists\": ZERO google hits
\"renders services to dentists\": ZERO google hits

\"Render services\" may be what they teach you in overseas English classes, but it is not commonly used in everyday business English. It sounds unnatrual to me, anyway.

Hope this helps and good luck!
