Show Notes


Dr. Melissa is a practicing dentist, author, and host of the Dental Digest Podcast, and she is in the throes of building her own startup right now alongside Ideal Practices. This is the first of three conversations we are sharing with Dr. Melissa as she builds, so you can follow the whole journey in real time, from these first decisions all the way to opening day. In this episode, we talk about her budget and what it really costs to start a dental practice in today’s market. Not the number you heard at a study club, the real one. Then you will hear from Dr. Melissa about why she is choosing ownership, the renovation move saving her a fortune, the lease one AI tool swore was predatory, and the location decision that nearly broke her. None of it is theory. She is making these choices this week. If you are an associate dentist wondering whether ownership is even possible for someone in your shoes, this is the honest version nobody hands you up front. Learn more at idealpractices.com.
