Dental Practice Ownership
Your complete guide to buying and running a successful dental practice
The Journey to Practice Ownership
Practice ownership represents both the biggest investment and greatest wealth-building opportunity of your dental career. Strategic tax planning and key person insurance become essential as you transition from employee to owner.
Most dentists transition from associateship to ownership 5-8 years post-graduation, once student debt is manageable and clinical skills are established. Proper estate planning protects your growing practice assets.
This section covers everything from finding and financing your first practice to setting up operations and managing the business side of dentistry, including growth strategies for the future.
