title: Valuing dental practice.
abstract: Because new dentists are finding that initiating dental practices has become more problematic, the issues of practice purchase and valuation have become more salient. The purchase of a practice, although expensive, decreases the amount of time required before the dentist can experience a profit. This article discusses issues related to valuing, reviews some of the strategies related to the purchase of a practice, and recommends an objective approach to establishing fair market value.
