The gap between treatment and payment

A patient sits in your chair today. The insurance company pays weeks later. In between, your practice has already paid the hygienist, the lab, the supply house and the rent. Multiply that by every patient on the schedule, and even a busy, profitable office can feel short on cash.

Working capital is a lump sum for those day-to-day operating needs. It keeps the practice running smoothly while receivables catch up.

Common uses in a dental office

For a deeper look at timing issues, our dental practice cash flow guide walks through the usual pressure points.

What the review involves

Fill out the 5-minute application. We begin with a soft credit pull and review about three months of business bank statements. FICO 500+ is considered, no tax returns are required, and sole proprietors can apply.

The size of an offer depends mainly on your deposits and what is already committed to other obligations. A practice with consistent insurance and patient deposits is in the best position to move quickly.

Matching the product to the need

Working capital suits a defined, one-time need. Buying a new CBCT unit or chairs? Equipment financing for dental practices ties funding to the asset. Expect recurring gaps from claim timing? A line of credit may fit. Want repayment tied to revenue? See our dental merchant cash advance page.

Read the offer like a treatment plan

You would never start a treatment plan without walking the patient through the cost. Treat your funding offer the same way. It shows the full repayment amount and the payment schedule before you accept. Compare those with your collections from a typical month. If it fits, start your application.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can working capital cover payroll while insurance claims are pending?

Yes. Bridging payroll during claim delays is one of the most common reasons dental owners apply.

Do you look at my accounts receivable?

We focus on about three months of business bank statements, which show the payments that actually reach your account.

How long does it take?

Decisions move quickly, and funding can arrive in as little as 24 hours for qualified businesses.

Is a soft credit pull really all you need to start?

Yes, we start with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score. FICO 500+ is considered.

How much working capital can a dental practice get?

Funding ranges from $25,000 to $5,000,000, depending mainly on deposits and existing obligations.

Can I use working capital to bring on an associate dentist?

Yes. Some owners use it to cover salary and onboarding costs while a new associate builds a patient base. Check the repayment schedule against the months before that associate's production picks up.

Hygienist payroll $48,000.00
Bulk supplies $21,000.00
New-patient marketing $15,000.00
Associate ramp-up $70,000.00
