Questions We're Often Asked

As they say, timing is everything. We recognize that you have choices, however, it is fair to say – not all dental groups are the same.

We encourage you to explore all your options and select the best Partner that’s the right fit for your personal and professional needs. Just remember, our 123Dentist Partnership Development team is here to listen, learn, understand and present options that will help you reach your long-term goals – together. When you are ready, let’s talk.

  • I’m interested in a partnership. What’s the first step?

    Simply fill out this form on our website. A member of our Partnership Development team will reach out to guide you through the process and answer any questions you have.

  • How long can I stay on after selling?

    As long as you’d like. Our model is built for long-term relationships and flexible transitions. You can continue practicing, leading your team, and growing the business based on your goals and lifestyle.

  • Why retain ownership after selling?

    By keeping an ownership stake, you continue to benefit from your clinic’s growth. You maintain

    leadership, contribute to success, and have the option to sell your shares later—either to us or to a future partner—maximizing long-term value.

  • Will I be stuck doing administrative work?

    Not at all. We’re here to reduce your operational workload so you can focus on what matters most: patient care.

  • What should I consider before selling my practice?

    Think about your personal goals and transition timeline. Do you want to continue practicing with operational support, or are you planning for retirement? We’ll work with you to design a plan that fits.

  • Are all dental groups the same

    No. The right partner should align with your values, culture, and long-term vision. Ask yourself:

    Do they share your philosophy and team-first approach?
    Do they have a strong reputation in the industry?
    Will they support ownership continuity and mentorship opportunities?

  • How Is My Practice Valued?

    We determine value based on your clinic’s profitability, applying a multiple that considers several key factors—including location, your desired transition timeline, practice size, technology, and brand reputation.

  • What support will my clinic receive?

    You’ll have access to both regional and national teams specializing in marketing, HR, finance, recruitment, and operations—so you can focus on care, not admin. Your brand and leadership stay intact.

  • Will you change how my clinic operates?

    No. You stay in control of day-to-day operations, staffing, and brand decisions. We’re here to support—not replace—what already works.
