Frequently Asked Questions
What is typical dental practice overhead?
Industry benchmarks: 60-75% of collections. High overhead (>75%) suggests inefficiency. Low overhead (<55%) may indicate under-investment in staff, technology, or marketing. Fixed costs (rent, equipment) vs variable costs (supplies, lab) behave differently as production changes. Our calculator breaks down overhead categories with benchmarks.
How much do PPO write-offs cost?
PPO write-offs typically range 20-40% of gross production, depending on your fee schedule vs contracted rates. A practice with $1M gross production and 30% write-offs collects only $700k. Our calculator shows the true cost of each PPO plan to evaluate participation decisions.
Do you store patient or practice data?
No. All calculations run entirely in your browser. We do not collect, transmit, or store any production data, patient information, or practice financials. Your dental practice data remains private and HIPAA-compliant.
