Advantages to Building a DSO

  • Creating your own DSO positions you to compete more effectively with established DSOs and a saturated market. By consolidating multiple practices under one organizational structure, you leverage shared resources, streamline operations, and negotiate better deals with suppliers and insurance companies, giving your network the competitive edge needed to thrive in the dental industry even when competition is high. The dental industry is becoming more and more competitive and building a DSO is a great option to not just compete, but thrive while also adding resiliency to your business.

  • Item deMaximize Profitability through Economies of Scale A multi-site group of practices can significantly enhance profitability by capitalizing on economies of scale. Centralizing administrative functions, bulk purchasing, and shared marketing efforts help reduce overall operational costs. This cost-efficiency allows you to reinvest savings into further growth or enhanced patient services. Economies of scale can lead to better pricing for supplies and services, improved negotiation power with vendors, and more effective utilization of resources, ultimately boosting your profit margins and financial stability across all locations.

  • Enhance Work-Life Balance Building your own DSO enables you to delegate administrative and managerial tasks to dedicated teams, and production to other providers, granting you more time to focus on patient care or personal pursuits. Over time, this delegation can lead to an improved work-life balance, reducing burnout and increasing overall job satisfaction. A DSO can eventually cerate passive income by profiting whether or not you are an active provider in the organization and whether or not you are there to run the day to day operations.  

  • Expanding into a network of practices typically commands higher valuation multiples compared to single-location practices. This growth strategy increases the overall value of your business, making it an attractive acquisition target for larger DSOs or investors. When you decide to sell, the higher valuation multiple can result in a substantially greater return on investment.
