Part I of this course focused on the macro trends facing the DSO industry and the various DSO models are available to dentists. Part II will explore in detail the economics of a DSO transaction and the technical points of transaction structures. Although DSO models vary, their approach to practice valuation is the same.

Any dentist who is contemplating selling their practice to a DSO will benefit from understanding how the learning objectives within this course can help them prepare for a sale.
