Practice Valuations
Know what your practice is worth — and why.
Dental practice valuations for sales, purchases, partnerships, estate planning, and long-range benchmarking.
A defensible practice valuation is the foundation of a sound purchase, sale, or partnership decision. It's also the single most useful benchmark for tracking whether your operating decisions are actually building value.
LLI valuations combine normalized earnings, comparable transactions, and dental-specific factors — presented in a report that lenders, attorneys, and buyers can work with.

FAQs
Common questions.
- When should I get a practice valuation?
- Common triggers include planning a sale, buying in a partner, adding an associate with equity, updating estate documents, or benchmarking value before major investment.
- How is a dental practice valued?
- We look at normalized earnings, comparable transactions, tangible assets, patient base, and specialty-specific factors. A rule-of-thumb collections percentage alone is rarely enough.
- How long does a valuation take?
- Most valuations take a few weeks after we receive complete financial records. Timelines depend on the completeness of statements and the purpose of the valuation.
