The practice we go to (in Cary) has had three owners in the last 10 years. The first owner, who opened it, is a fantastic dentist & has become a personal friend, and she sold it when she had her first baby. The second owner ran it into the ground, went bankrupt and one of the hygienists was arrested for drug abuse (selling scrips using the dentist's prescription pads). The third/current owner runs a regional "chain" of dental/orthodontic practices and is a much better businessman. I'm 100% sure they bring home >$1m income per year.
- iends 13y agoSome of the dentist who own multiple practices pay themselves almost a million a year in salary in our area. It's not bad work if you're interested giving up patient time to work on the business side. In our state, only dentist can own dental offices, so it keeps 3rd party corporations from forming.
