How this valuation is worked out
Individual buyers typically pay 60% to 80% of annual collections. DSOs price on EBITDA instead, usually 4 to 7.5 times, which often produces a higher number for larger practices with associate dentists in place.
A worked example
Collections of $1.4M with $420K of adjusted profit after a market-rate associate salary. At 4.5–6× that is $1.9M–$2.5M, with hygiene recall, fee-for-service mix and modern equipment supporting the top of the range.

Common questions
Percentage of collections or EBITDA?
Smaller solo practices sell on collections; practices with associates and over roughly $1.5M in collections usually do better on an EBITDA basis with a DSO.
Do I have to stay after selling?
DSO deals almost always require the owner to work on for two to five years. Private sales can be a clean exit.
How does my building affect it?
Property is valued and sold or leased separately from the practice.
