How We Help You Sell Your Dental Practice

Selling a dental practice involves valuing tangible assets like digital X-rays and chairs, as well as intangible assets like your active patient count, hygiene recall system, and reputation.

Understanding Your Business Before Recommending a Business Broker

We start by analyzing your practice mix. Are you primarily Fee-for-Service (FFS) or PPO? Do you refer out most specialty work or keep it in-house? Do you own the real estate?

From there, we identify business brokers who specialize in the dental sector. Some are experts in selling solo practices to new graduates, while others work with Dental Support Organizations (DSOs) looking to acquire established groups.

Key Value Drivers for Dental Buyers

• Active Patient Count – Buyers look for a stable base of patients who have visited in the last 18 months, not just total charts on file.

• Hygiene Production – A strong hygiene department (30-40% of total revenue) indicates a healthy, recurring patient base and high diagnostic potential.

• Technology & Equipment – Modern offices with CBCT, Cerec, or digital scanners command higher prices than those needing immediate upgrades.

• Staff Retention – Your hygienists and front desk team are the face of the practice. Retaining them is key to patient retention post-sale.

The Process

Preparing to Sell Your Dental Practice

Selling a dental practice requires clean financials and a clear transition plan for your patients.

Valuation: Collections & EBITDA

The first step is a comprehensive valuation. Dental practices are typically valued on a percentage of annual collections or a multiple of EBITDA (for larger practices/DSOs).

We work with business brokers who will "recast" your financials to show the true profit potential. This often includes normalizing doctor compensation and adding back personal expenses to show the actual cash flow available to a new owner.

Confidentiality is Key

You don't want your staff or patients to worry about a transition. Confidentiality is critical to maintaining practice value.

Our partner business brokers utilize strict protocols—blind listings, pre-screened buyers, and staged information release—to ensure your practice continues to operate smoothly until the deal is finalized.

Frequently Asked Questions About How to Sell My Dental Practice

Can you help me sell my dental practice?

Yes. We specialize in connecting owners of dental practice with experienced business brokers who understand how to package and present your company to serious buyers while keeping the process confidential.

How are dental practice valued?

Most small and mid-sized businesses are valued using a multiple of SDE for smaller companies or EBITDA for larger ones. Clean financials, recurring revenue, documented systems, and a strong team can all increase the multiple buyers are willing to pay.

Do I need a specialized broker for my dental practice?

While you can try to sell on your own, working with a broker who regularly sells businesses in your size range and industry usually leads to better outcomes. They already know active buyers, what those buyers want to see, and how to position your business to maximize offers.

Can I sell if I'm heavily involved in day-to-day operations?

Yes, but buyers may discount the price if the business cannot function without you. The more responsibility you can transfer to your team before going to market, the more attractive your dental practice becomes to buyers.

How confidential is the sale process?

Confidentiality is a core part of a proper sale process. Professional business brokers use blind listings, NDAs, and buyer screening so that employees, competitors, and customers only learn about the sale when the time is right.

What is recasting financials?

Recasting means adding back owner perks and non-recurring expenses to your profit and loss statements so buyers see the true cash flow available to them. This helps support a stronger asking price and clearer justification for your valuation.
