Dental practices can deduct a wide range of expenses including dental equipment and supplies, dental lab fees, malpractice insurance, continuing education and licensing fees, practice management software, office lease payments, staff wages and benefits, marketing and advertising costs, and professional services. We also help identify often-missed deductions like home office use, vehicle expenses for multi-location practices, and technology investments.
Associate dentist compensation can be structured as a percentage of production, percentage of collections, daily rate, or a hybrid model. Each has different tax implications for both the practice owner and the associate. We help you determine whether associates should be W-2 employees or independent contractors (1099), structure production-based bonuses, and plan for potential partnership buy-ins - all while ensuring compliance with IRS classification rules.
Yes. Major dental technology purchases like CEREC milling machines, CBCT scanners, digital impression systems, and dental lasers can often be fully expensed in the year of purchase using Section 179 deductions or bonus depreciation. For large purchases, we help you time acquisitions strategically and coordinate with your equipment financing to maximize the tax benefit while managing cash flow.
Practice transactions involve complex tax considerations. For buyers, how the purchase price is allocated between equipment, goodwill, patient records, and non-compete agreements significantly affects your depreciation and amortization deductions. For sellers, the allocation impacts whether proceeds are taxed as ordinary income or capital gains. We work with both parties to structure deals that are tax-efficient and ensure proper reporting of all transaction components.
