Description

Dentistry has never offered more paths to success — or more variables to consider. From solo practice ownership to DSO affiliation, the business of dentistry is evolving rapidly. But what's working? How do income, patient volume, technology investment, and career stage intersect? And which strategies move the needle?

 

To explore these questions, we surveyed more than 500 U.S. general dentists to gain insight into their roles, practice settings, earnings, career stages, technology preferences, and other aspects of their practice. The results reveal clear trends that distinguish high earners from their peers, offering insight into what it takes to thrive in today’s competitive dental landscape.

 

Our research suggests that dentists earning over $400,000 per year are not just lucky. They are making different choices about technology, staffing, acquiring patients, and managing their practices. Those earning over $700,000 built systems that allow them to work smarter, not harder, taking more time off while maintaining higher patient volumes and revenue.

 

This report offers actionable insights to help dental professionals elevate practice performance.
