Cosmetic Dentistry M&A

Your Brand Commands Premium Fees. Your Exit Should Too.

Cosmetic dental practices represent some of the highest-value opportunities in dental M&A. Your brand equity, patient loyalty, and premium positioning deserve an advisor who knows how to translate that into a stronger deal.

Why Cosmetic Practices Are Different

Your Practice Isn't Just a Business. It's a Brand.

Most dental M&A advisors evaluate practices on collections and EBITDA alone. But cosmetic practices carry additional value that generic advisors miss: brand equity, premium patient demographics, high case acceptance rates, and marketing systems that consistently attract high-value patients. We know how to quantify and negotiate for that value.
Revenue Per Patient

Cosmetic practices command higher revenue per patient than general dentistry, which directly impacts your valuation multiple.

Case Acceptance Rate

A strong case acceptance rate signals operational efficiency and patient trust — both of which buyers value highly.

Brand Recognition

Your personal brand, online presence, and referral network represent intangible value that the right buyer will pay a premium for.

Marketing ROI

Cosmetic practices with proven marketing systems and patient acquisition channels are more attractive to strategic buyers.

Brand Premium Over General

Cosmetic dental practices with established brands, strong online presence, and proven patient acquisition systems consistently sell at premiums above general dentistry benchmarks. The key is having an advisor who knows how to present and negotiate for that premium.

Our team has closed transactions where brand value alone accounted for a significant uplift in the final sale price — because we knew how to quantify patient lifetime value, marketing ROI, and referral network strength in terms buyers understand.

Our Approach
Protecting What Makes Your Practice Premium
We understand that selling a cosmetic practice isn’t just about the numbers. It’s about finding a partner who respects and preserves the brand you’ve built.
Brand Preservation Strategy

We identify buyers who value your cosmetic positioning and negotiate terms that protect your brand identity, patient experience standards, and clinical philosophy.

Premium Positioning in Market

Your practice is presented to buyers as a premium asset — not just another dental practice. We highlight the revenue per patient, marketing systems, and brand equity that justify higher multiples.

Referral Network Protection

Your referral relationships are a key value driver. We structure transitions that maintain these relationships and ensure continuity for your referring providers and patients.

Post-Sale Involvement Options

Many cosmetic dentists want to remain involved after a sale. We negotiate terms that allow you to continue practicing, mentoring, or serving as a brand ambassador on your terms.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How is my cosmetic brand valued in a sale?

Your brand equity — including reputation, online presence, patient loyalty, and referral network — is evaluated as part of the overall practice valuation. Buyers recognize that cosmetic practices with strong brands command premium fees, and this translates to higher multiples. We help quantify these intangible assets so they’re reflected in your sale price.

Will a buyer keep my cosmetic focus?

This depends entirely on the buyer. Some DSOs and private equity groups specifically seek cosmetic practices because of their higher revenue per patient. Others may want to shift the practice mix. 7 Pillars identifies buyers who value your cosmetic positioning and want to preserve — or even expand — that focus.

What about my reputation and referral network?

Your referral relationships and professional reputation are key value drivers. We help structure deals that protect these relationships through transition periods, non-compete considerations, and partnership terms that keep you involved in the practice’s continued success.

Do cosmetic practices sell for higher multiples?

Generally, yes. Cosmetic practices with strong EBITDA, high revenue per patient, and proven marketing systems typically command higher multiples than general practices. However, the specific multiple depends on many factors including location, growth trajectory, and buyer demand in your market.

How long does the transition process take?

 

From initial engagement to close, most cosmetic practice transitions take 6-12 months. The timeline depends on practice complexity, buyer identification, due diligence requirements, and deal structure negotiations. We manage the entire process so you can continue focusing on patient care.

 

"Everything I did with 7 Pillars was not only thorough, detailed, and well done, it was enjoyable. I really had a great time working with all of them...The peace of mind that I had knowing that every 'i' was dotted and every 't' was crossed and that I wasn't missing something was huge."
Dr. Kelly Toombs, DDSPractice Owner
Dr. Kelly Toombs, DDS
"I can't even imagine doing this process on my own... not only the negotiations way more than paid for itself, but just the process of due diligence—the way that 7 Pillars walked me through due diligence—I barely had to do anything... I highly recommend 7 Pillars. They were phenomenal."
Dr. Hilton Goldreich, DDSMulti-Location Practice Owner

"7 Pillars made sure that we knew what we were getting into, what to expect, and questions we didn't even know to ask and you know they had the answer before we even knew we needed them...I just couldn't imagine doing it by ourselves. I would recommend 7 Pillars to anybody going through this process."
Dr. Jason Montgomery, DDSPractice Owner

"One of the things that really stood out to me was that they were very direct. They were very honest about what the process was going to look like, what our involvement was going to be, and also what to expect."
Alix LaurainCEO
"7 Pillars were not forcing us into the marketplace... they were really willing to value our practice, see if this makes sense for us, and provide us with the information ahead of time. 7 Pillars is to us what we are to our patient... they had the information, I could ask questions, I could do some research on my own if I wanted, but they were the experts."
Dr. Kimber Holmes, DDSPractice Owner
"7 Pillars gave me the whole picture. They understood my practice, they understood the offers, they broke it down to that next level so that I really understood what the deal was. We felt that even towards the end and after our transaction took place that everybody was still there still working to make sure that everything got put to bed... everything was done to a sublime level."
Dr. Joseph GrayPractice Owner
"Once they've got a feel for who you are and what your practice is, they can connect you with the right people. 7 Pillars just went over and beyond what I think anybody else would do to help, and that's what really stands out with them. If I had to do it all all over again, I wouldn't use anybody but 7 Pillars."
