As a result, we are often asked the question, “When is the right time to sell my dental practice?”, and, “Have we hit a ceiling on these values?” While the answer may be as simple as “Sell it when you want to retire”, I think that the true question that we are asked, is When Is the Right Time to Sell My Dental Practice for the highest price that also provides me with the flexibility to commence the next stage of my career.
