Things I Wish I Knew Before My Dental Build

Opening your first—or second—dental practice is one of the most exciting milestones in your career, but it’s also where many costly and avoidable mistakes are made. From choosing the right location and lease structure to financing, construction, equipment, and long-term scalability, the startup process can quickly become overwhelming.

Dr. Saman Jomehri will share firsthand insights from opening his state of the art practice—what worked, what didn’t, and what he would do differently the next time around.

Supported by trusted industry experts from banking, accounting, real estate, construction, and dental supply, this CE-eligible evening will walk attendees through the key stages of launching a dental practice, highlighting where early decisions have the biggest impact on risk, cash flow, and future growth.

Designed for early- and mid-career dentists planning their first or second location, this session focuses on simplifying the startup journey, avoiding common pitfalls, and building a strong foundation for long-term success.
