Most dental practice owners take home 30% and call that real profit, but if an associate can in and costs you the same percentage, the practice itself earned nothing. Essentially you are breaking even! That’s the math Omar Virjee runs with every one of his 600+ dental clients, and it changes how owners see their own P&L overnight.
