SEPTEMBER 8, 2018
We currently work with more than 100 CPA's here at Bookkeeping for Dentists. Unfortunately, it's very rare to come by a dental practice CPA that does all seven of the following items as they should. But there are a handful, okay maybe. 4ish that I've worked with, who have been awesome with this list. The ones who fail to follow the below list are the ones that make my blood boil.

Independent solo practices may not become extinct—they are always a few contrarians who soldier on—but they are becoming an endangered species. The 7% rate of decline may not be fixed; it is likely to accelerate.

What are Dental Expense Benchmarks? Every practice has variations in their expenses such as paying rent or paying mortgage, if you have associates, and how many employees you have. But there is a clever way to group together specific expense accounts from your Profit & Loss report into six bite-size categories.

Have you ever noticed when your dental accountant starts talking, its a downright foreign language? Almost alien. They start throwing terms around like Gross Profit, Section 179, Basis, Capital Gains, AMT Tax… and you say “gesundheit.”. I’m guessing you most likely don’t find accounting exciting, and you don’t have the time to understand it. As your dental accountant is going over fees with you, you force a smile and nod in agreement.

Too often, dentists are super focused on production, but they are not monitoring their dental overhead expenses, which is a huge factor in what you get to take home. That kind of mentality will force you to work harder. If you are increasing production, but not improving your practice systems to get better control on practice overhead expenses, you may be spinning wheels.

Great video testimonials are powerful because they engender trust. All advertising about is claims: we’ve got the best car repair place, we’ve got the best jewelry store, we’ve got the best dental practice; but is that true?

West Oklahoma dentist Benjamin Winthrop, or “Dr. Benny” as his patients call him has a unique style of practice. He specializes in a one of a kind brand of smile makeovers.
