Common questions

Quick answers for practice owners before you download.

Who is this checklist for?

Owners of general dental, orthodontic and oral surgery practices, especially practices with $750K or more in annual revenue and a yearly tax bill above $100K.

Why does December 31 matter so much?

Many tax-saving moves only count for 2026 if they are done before the year ends. After December 31, your CPA can usually only report what already happened.
