Starting a practice from the ground up is one of the most significant investments a dentist can make. Our De
Novo Setup service guides you through every phase of launching a brand-new practice โ from initial feasibility
and business planning to grand opening. We coordinate all moving parts, so you can focus on delivering
exceptional patient care from day one.
Choosing the right location is a critical determinant of your long-term success. We conduct thorough market
analysis, demographic research, and competitive assessments across Canadian markets to identify sites that align
with your patient acquisition goals, accessibility requirements, and growth potential, whether in urban centers,
suburban communities, or underserved areas.
Building the right team is just as important as building the right space. We assist with role profiling,
recruitment strategies, onboarding frameworks, and initial clinical and administrative training, ensuring your
team is aligned with your practice culture, patient experience standards, and operational protocols from the
start.
Investing in the right equipment at the right time protects both your budget and your clinical capabilities. We
develop phased equipment plans that account for your immediate needs, future service expansions, technology
upgrades, and financing options, helping you make informed decisions without over-capitalizing in the early
stages.
A well-designed clinical environment improves workflow efficiency, patient comfort, and regulatory compliance.
Our team, drawing on direct experience from dental owners and operators, advises on operatory layout,
sterilization zones, patient flow, accessibility, and infection control design principles, ensuring your space
is both functional and welcoming.
Leveraging our established network of industry-preferred vendors and suppliers, we manage the sourcing and
procurement of dental equipment, supplies, and technology on your behalf. We negotiate competitive pricing,
evaluate quality and warranty terms, and ensure timely delivery โ saving you time and reducing costs without
compromising on standards.
The right practice management software is the operational backbone of your clinic. We set you up with leading
platforms through our preferred partners and provide comprehensive training to ensure your team can efficiently
manage scheduling, billing, patient records, and reporting from day one. We work with all major PMS platforms to
accommodate your preference.
Dental construction projects require specialized oversight to stay on schedule, within budget, and fully
compliant with healthcare and building codes. We coordinate with architects, contractors, and regulatory bodies
on your behalf, managing timelines, changing orders, inspections, and quality control so your build-out proceeds
smoothly and without costly delays.
Acquiring an existing practice or merging with another group can accelerate your growth significantly, but only
when executed with the right due diligence. We provide comprehensive M&A advisory services, including practice
valuations, financial analysis, operational assessments, transition planning, and negotiation support. Whether
you are a first-time buyer or a growing DSO, we help you make strategic decisions that protect your investment.
High staff turnover is one of the most disruptive and costly challenges facing dental practices today. We work
with your team to build structured training programs, performance frameworks, and workplace culture initiatives
that improve engagement and loyalty. From front-desk communication to clinical team collaboration, we equip your
staff with the skills and motivation to deliver consistently excellent care.
Understanding where your practice stands is the first step to improving it. We conduct a comprehensive analysis
of both your clinical operations and your business systems, reviewing scheduling efficiency, production and
collection rates, overhead ratios, patient flow, case acceptance, and administrative workflows. The result is a
clear, actionable picture of where opportunities for improvement lie, backed by data and delivered with
practical recommendations.
Expanding your service offerings is one of the most effective ways to increase practice revenue and patient
retention. We guide you through the full process of launching new clinical programs, including oral and
maxillofacial surgery (OMFS), sleep dentistry, periodontal services, orthodontics, endodontics, implant
services, and more. From market feasibility and equipment planning to team training and patient communication,
we ensure every new service launches smoothly and profitably.
Clear, meaningful financial reporting is essential for informed decision-making. We produce customized reports,
including profit and loss statements, normalized earnings analyses, overhead benchmarking, and performance trend
reviews that give you a true picture of your practice's financial health. Our reports are designed to be
actionable, not just informational, so you always know what to do next.
Whether you are financing a de novo build, an acquisition, or a major equipment purchase, how your financials
are presented to lenders can significantly affect the terms you receive. We help you organize, normalize, and
present your financial records in a way that strengthens your borrowing profile, maximizing your chances of
approval and securing the most favorable rates available.
Uncollected revenue is one of the most common and avoidable sources of cash flow strain in dental practices. We
analyze your AR processes end to end, identifying billing gaps, insurance claim delays, and collection
inefficiencies. We then implement streamlined protocols and tracking systems that accelerate collections and
improve your overall cash flow position.
Strategic management of your outgoing expenses is just as important as maximizing your revenue. Leveraging our
established relationships with dental suppliers, equipment vendors, and service providers, we negotiate more
favorable terms on your behalf, reducing costs, improving payment schedules, and ensuring you are getting
maximum value from every vendor relationship.
Attracting new patients and keeping existing ones engaged requires the right systems and the right strategy. We
help you select, implement, and optimize customer relationship management (CRM) tools tailored to dental
practices, including automated recall systems, follow-up workflows, and patient communication platforms. Paired
with targeted acquisition strategies, we ensure your practice grows steadily and sustainably.
Before investing in marketing, you need to know where you stand. We conduct comprehensive market research
analyzing local demographics, competitive landscapes, patient demand patterns, and emerging trends across your
target area. Using these insights, we help you define a clear and compelling positioning strategy that
differentiates your practice and resonates with the patients you want to attract.
Your website and social media presence are often the first impression a prospective patient has of your
practice, and in todayโs digital environment, that impression determines whether they book or move on. We
provide a comprehensive audit of your existing website, evaluating performance, mobile responsiveness, search
visibility, content quality, and conversion effectiveness. From there, we develop a clear strategic brief
outlining exactly what needs to change, what messages need to land, and how your site should be structured to
turn visitors into patients. On the social media side, we build a tailored strategy that defines the right
platforms for your market, your brand voice, key content pillars, and a realistic posting cadence, then connect
you with trusted content partners for execution. The result is a cohesive, professional digital presence that
works consistently in the background to grow your practice.
For practices offering specialty services, including oral surgery, orthodontics, periodontics, endodontics,
implants, and sleep dentistry, a structured referral network is one of the highest-return marketing investments
available. We help you identify and cultivate relationships with general dentists, physicians, and healthcare
providers in your area, developing a systematic referral program that generates a consistent, trusted flow of
patients. This includes outreach strategy, referral communication templates, tracking systems, and relationship
maintenance protocols, turning referrals from an ad hoc occurrence into a reliable and measurable growth
channel.
The journey from a patientโs first call to their first appointment is one of the most underleveraged marketing
assets a dental practice has. Every touchpoint, from how the phone is answered to how quickly a booking is
confirmed, what the waiting room feels like, and how the dentist is introduced, shapes whether that patient
stays, refers others, and leaves a five-star review. We design and script the complete new patient experience,
covering front-desk intake protocols, welcome communications, appointment reminder sequences, and post-visit
follow-up workflows. Tied directly into your CRM and PMS setup, this service transforms your patient journey
into a consistent, repeatable system that drives retention and word-of-mouth growth from day one.
Opening or expanding a dental facility requires a series of municipal, provincial, and health authority
permits. We manage the entire permitting process on your behalf, identifying all applicable approvals, preparing
required documentation, liaising with regulatory bodies, and tracking submissions through to completion. Our
experience across Canadian jurisdictions ensures nothing falls through the cracks.
Compliance with Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC) standards is a core requirement for all dental
facilities in Canada. We help you develop and implement an IPAC program that meets or exceeds the standards set
by provincial dental regulatory bodies including policies, procedures, staff training, auditing tools, and
documentation. Whether you are setting up a new practice or upgrading an existing one, we ensure your IPAC
framework is thorough and defensible.
The use of radiographic equipment in dental practices is subject to strict provincial radiation safety
regulations. We guide you through the registration and inspection requirements, radiation protection protocols,
equipment standards, and staff certification processes required to operate X-ray and CBCT equipment legally and
safely across Canadian provinces.
Offering sedation services, whether minimal, moderate, or deep sedation, requires specific licensing, facility
approvals, and clinical protocols that vary by province. We manage the full application and compliance process,
coordinating with the relevant regulatory bodies, supporting your team with the necessary training and
documentation, and ensuring your facility meets all required safety standards before you see your first sedation
patient.
Regulatory compliance in dentistry is non-negotiable. From provincial health authority requirements to OHSA and
infection prevention standards, we ensure your practice is fully compliant at every stage of setup and
operation. Our team stays current with evolving regulations across all Canadian provinces, providing you with
peace of mind and protection from liability.
Offering sedation dentistry or CBCT imaging requires both clinical readiness and regulatory approval. Our
guidance covers the full spectrum from licensing and facility requirements to clinical protocol development,
staff training, and ongoing compliance. Our in-house surgeon and experienced clinical advisors ensure your
practice is equipped to deliver these advanced services safely and confidently.
For practices operating in Ontario, compliance with the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario (RCDSO)
standards is a fundamental requirement. We provide guidance on RCDSO registration, facility standards,
record-keeping requirements, practice inspections, and continuing education obligations, ensuring your practice
remains in good standing with Ontario's dental regulatory authority at all times.
