Buyer guide

What to review before buying a dental practice in California.

A strong opportunity is more than revenue. Buyers should understand patient retention, provider mix, lease terms, hygiene production, growth levers, and whether the transition plan supports continuity.

Financial quality

Review collections trends, hygiene revenue, payer mix, adjustments, provider production, and recurring patient demand.

Facility fit

Operatories, lease terms, equipment age, visibility, parking, and expansion potential all influence deal quality.

Patient base

Consider family density, language needs, employer base, referral patterns, and local competition.

Transition plan

Clarify seller support, staff retention, associate coverage, and handoff expectations before diligence gets deep.
