In today\u2019s dental business environment, going it alone in private practice is a bigger risk than ever. There are more dentists, more group practices, and more corporate dental companies competing for the same patients. Dental insurance companies dictate treatment for patients, and reimbursements continue to decline, while the cost of doing business increases.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In an ADA Research Brief (Bradley Munson & Marko Vujicic, 2014)1, it is reported that:
\n\u2022 Office-based dentists\u2019 earnings are not rebounding, despite several years of economic recovery since the \u201cGreat Recession\u201d of the early 2000s.
\n\u2022 Low dentist \u201cbusyness\u201d levels and decreased wait times indicate that additional capacity is available in the dental care system.
\n\u2022 Given that dental spending is expected to remain sluggish, while the supply of dentists is expected to increase, the prospects for office-based dentists\u2019 earnings will likely be flat.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Aligning yourself with a business model which has proven to maintain a high profit margin, a desirable work-life balance, and satisfying clinical practices is good advice.
