Growth in dentistry is measured in chairs

For most practices, more production means more operatories, more hygiene days or a second location. Each of those carries costs that come long before the new revenue: plumbing and electrical for new rooms, cabinetry, delivery units, imaging, and the first months of a new associate's or hygienist's pay. Expansion funding for dental practices covers that build-up period so you do not have to drain the operating account to grow.

Expansion paths we help fund

Adding operatories

Converting unused space or a storage room into one or two more chairs is often the fastest way to add capacity without moving.

Opening a second office

Lease deposits, build-out, signage and early staffing all hit before the new office has a full patient base.

Adding a service line

Implants, clear aligners, sleep appliances or sedation can each require training, equipment and starting inventory.

Fitting the funding to the project

Chairs, imaging units and other hard assets often fit equipment financing for dental practices, where the financing is tied to the equipment. Build-out, marketing and payroll ramp usually fit working capital or a merchant cash advance. Phased projects can use a business line of credit so you draw as contractors invoice. Plenty of expansions use more than one product, and we can lay out how they fit together.

Applying for expansion funding

Start with our 5-minute application. We run a soft credit pull to begin and review about three months of business bank statements. No tax returns are required, FICO 500+ is considered, and sole proprietors can apply. Qualified practices can be funded in as little as 24 hours, though most owners apply as soon as contractor bids are in hand.

Planning for the ramp

New chairs rarely fill on day one. Associates need time to build a schedule, and a second office needs time to build a patient base. Your offer shows the full repayment amount and repayment schedule before you accept. Test that payment against your current production alone, so the expansion can ramp at a realistic pace without pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I fund an expansion before the new space is finished?

Yes. Most owners apply during planning or build-out, since that is when costs arrive. We review your current practice deposits to size the offer.

How much can I get for a dental expansion?

Offers range from $25,000 to $5,000,000 and depend mainly on deposits and existing obligations. You can request less than the maximum.

Can I use expansion funds to hire an associate dentist?

Yes. Covering a new associate's pay while their schedule fills is a common use of expansion funding.

Do I need a business plan or projections?

No. Our review centers on about three months of business bank statements rather than projections.

Should I use equipment financing or working capital?

It depends on what you are buying. Hard assets often fit equipment financing, while build-out and payroll usually fit working capital.

Does applying affect my credit?

We begin with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score.

New operatory $95,000.00
Second-office lease $140,000.00
Implant training $22,000.00
