Financing for Dentists
Dental practices are capital-intensive: a single chair, an imaging unit or a CAD/CAM mill can run into tens of thousands, and finance needs commonly sit around $65,000. Practices use equipment finance to renew clinical gear and fund fit-outs, and working capital to cover wages, lab bills and consumables across the gap between treatment and rebate settlement.
Whether you are adding a second surgery or upgrading sterilisation, the right finance keeps your capital free for day-to-day running. Cockatoo helps you match to a partner who understands dental practice economics.
Common questions
Dentists — business loan questions
What do dental practices usually finance?
Chairs, imaging, CAD/CAM and sterilisation equipment are common, along with practice fit-outs and working capital for staffing and consumables. Around $65,000 is a typical ballpark. Cockatoo helps you find a suitable partner.
Can I fund a practice fit-out or extra surgery?
Yes, fit-outs and adding surgeries are common reasons practices seek finance, since they grow capacity ahead of the revenue they generate. Spreading the cost protects your cash flow. Cockatoo helps you match to the right partner.
