Dental Practice Partners and/or Associates

Enjoy the expert guidance of the recognized leader in dental practice transitions

If you are considering adding a dental practice partner or associate to your practice, first consider which arrangement will suit your needs best. Dental practice associates are non-owner dentists without a vested interest. They can be hired either as employees or as independent contractors. Dental practice partners have a vested, ownership interest in the dental practice, because they are buying a percentage of the valuation of the practice.

As the leader in dental practice transitions nationwide and a subsidiary of Henry Schein, Inc., the expert team at Henry Schein Dental Practice Transitions brings a high level of industry experience and expertise other firms simply can’t match.

Helping Dentists Find the Perfect Fit for their Dental Practice

Deciding to bring a partner or associate into your dental practice has advantages and rewards, but it’s not without its challenges. In choosing a partner, you’ll want to select a dentist who shares your vision, philosophy, and approach to managing the practice.

The right partner will be a good fit with your staff and patients and have a positive impact on your practice. In selecting the right associate, it’s equally important to choose a dentist who can add value to your practice and fit in well.
