"Associate - Build - Or Buy"
What makes dentistry so incredible? Our options! We can be incredibly successful whether we build ... buy ... or associate long-term. The key is understanding which path is best for you.
This practical, action-oriented course gives early-career dentists the tools to assess each path, understand the financial and professional implications, and make decisions that align with their personal goals, timelines, and vision for success.
Join us! March 31, 2026, for this insightful and informative presentation, designed to give you immediate, actionable guidance, a structured self-assessment, and a practical plan for choosing your best path.
You’ll learn how to:
Assess associate opportunities — what to expect in salary structure, mentorship, clinical growth, and how to negotiate agreements.
Explore the path to ownership through buy-in or practice purchase, including financial planning, timing, negotiation essentials, and common pitfalls.
Compare building a new practice vs. buying an existing one vs staying an associate, with concrete pros/cons, risk considerations, and strategies for realistic goal-setting.
Match your current financial situation and career goals with the best decision for you — whether debt management, leadership readiness, lifestyle, or long-term wealth creation.
Create your personalized decision roadmap with clear next steps depending on where you are now and where you want to go professionally.
By the end of this course, you’ll walk away with immediately actionable guidance, a structured self-assessment, and a practical plan for choosing your best path — be it serving as a confident associate, transitioning into ownership, or launching your own practice with clarity and confidence.
