What to bring to a first conversation with TUSK Practice Sales
These are NextGen Seller research prompts, not claims about the practice or a substitute for engagement diligence.
Dental practice earnings: owner production and replacement cost
Before interviewing an advisor, separate practice earnings from the clinical labor the owner still performs.
- Assemble provider-level production and collections, compensation terms, hygiene or ancillary contribution, referral sources, payer or financing mix, and the cost of replacing owner dentistry. The record should show what transfers and what a buyer would need to rebuild.
- Distinguish associate, hygienist, and owner-led services so a normalization does not hide a clinical-capacity gap or assign the same economics to materially different provider roles.
Dental practice sale records: real estate, equipment, and credentials
Put real estate, equipment, leases, licenses, and specialty credentials beside the proposed transaction perimeter.
- Record ownership, debt, useful life, assignment terms, expected capital needs, and whether each item would be bought, leased, or excluded. Specialty practices should also document provider capacity and a credible plan for post-close clinical coverage.
- If the owner retains real estate, set out proposed lease economics, improvement responsibilities, renewal rights, and any facility constraint before late-stage buyer diligence.
What should a dental practice owner ask an M&A advisor?
Ask who will build the valuation, prepare materials, contact buyers, manage diligence, and negotiate the transaction.
- Request examples from comparable specialties and transition models, then compare confidentiality controls, fees, conflicts, exclusions, and the work expected from the seller. Sector focus narrows the field; it does not establish engagement fit.
