Dental careers

Two balance sheets, one plan.

Many dentists work as an associate first, then buy a practice or a share of one. From then on, decisions at the practice and decisions at home affect each other: the loan you take to buy in, the plan you offer your team and what you save for yourself.

Your advisor builds the plan for both sides and works with your CPA, attorney and lender where their work meets ours.

Your priorities

From associate to owner.

Dental school loans

Compare income-driven repayment, refinancing and, if you work for a public or nonprofit employer, Public Service Loan Forgiveness. The right choice depends on where you plan to practice.

Buying a practice or a buy-in

Understand the purchase terms, the financing and what the payments do to your household cash flow. We connect the personal side with the work of your attorney, CPA and lender.

Your practice's 401(k)

A plan for your team and for you as an owner: plan design, costs and who handles each task, in a written proposal.

A 401(k) for your practice
Disability & life coverage

Dentistry depends on fine motor work. Review how each policy defines your occupation and what it pays, and whether the practice needs coverage of its own for overhead.

Explore income protection
Investing beyond the practice

Much of an owner's wealth can sit in one business. Build savings and investments outside it, so your plan doesn't depend on the practice alone.

Selling or stepping back

A sale, a partner buyout or a move to part-time each change your income, taxes and retirement timing. Start planning years before the date.

Common questions.

Is there a minimum to work with you?
No. There's no account minimum. Your introductory call is free, and fees begin only after you decide to move forward. See pricing
Should I buy a practice or stay an associate?
It depends on the practice, the financing and how much of the business you want to run. We show what a purchase does to your cash flow, loans and savings over time, alongside the advice of your CPA and attorney.
Can you help with my practice's 401(k)?
Yes. alooola offers 401(k) plans for dental practices, with a written proposal of the design, the costs and who handles each task. A 401(k) for your practice
Do dentists qualify for PSLF?
Only for full-time work at a government employer or a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, such as a public health clinic or the military. Most private practice work doesn't qualify, so the choice depends on where you plan to work.
