Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right buyer for my dental practice?
In a competitive sales process ran by TUSK Practice Sales, dental practices attract interest from large and regional DSOs, specialty DSOs (OSOs), and private equity groups. Each brings a different deal structure, transition timeline, and post-close expectation. The right buyer for your dental practice is dependent on finding a buyer that can meet your financial goals, as well as meet the criteria on the operational and cultural side of the business. TUSK brings 6+ offers from unique buyers to our clients on average.
What makes selling a dental practice different?
M&A activity across the dental industry is one of the most active and competitive verticals in healthcare. The DSO market is mature, with hundreds of platforms actively acquiring and many being newly formed. The dental industry has been consolidating for over a decade and has a very sophisticated buy-side that allows dentists to ensure they’re selling their practice to the best-fit partner at the highest price. TUSK has completed over $1.3B in transactions and has team members who have built, owned, and sold their own dental practices.
How is my dental practice valued?
The value of your dental practice is based on a multiple of adjusted EBITDA. TUSK Practice Sales provides complimentary dental practice valuations for practice owners seeking to understand what their practice is worth in today’s market. We complete hundreds of valuations yearly for practice owners who are weighing their options in a confidential manner with no obligation.
How long does it take to sell a dental practice?
Most dental practice sales take 6 to 9 months from engagement to close. The preparation phase runs approximately 3 weeks. The go-to-market and negotiation phases run 10 to 15 weeks. Due diligence and closing typically add another 8 to 12 weeks after a letter of intent is signed. When you enlist TUSK Practice Sales as your dedicated advisor, you will have a dedicated deal team leading your process and available to you day and night.
