Our History

Choice Transitions, founded by Daniel Baccari and Scott Cabral, is the result of nearly thirty years of experience in the dental transition marketplace.  In 1996, Baccari and Cabral both graduated from law school and entered into the dental transition field gaining their early experience working for a local dental practice broker.

In 1998, Mr. Baccari opened Baccari & Associates and began transitioning dental practices in the New England area. Mr. Cabral joined him in 2003 and they formed The Baccari Cabral Group (BCG). BCG became one of the fastest growing brokerage firms in New England, successfully selling numerous dental practices.

In 2008, BCG started expanding outside of the New England area and was transformed into National Practice Transitions (NPT), which opened its first office outside of New England in Columbus, Ohio.

Since then, the NPT team has successfully continued to grow and has opened several offices across the US, under the trade name Choice Transitions, stretching as far west as Illinois and Texas, covering all the states in between and down the eastern seaboard through Florida.

What Our Clients Say About Us

NPT and Dr. Bernie Kowalski made it easy to market and sell my practice with their thorough knowledge, continual follow-up, and providing necessary advice throughout every step of the way to the closing. Thank you again.

Anyone looking to buy or sell a practice needs to seriously consider Scott Cabral and NPT. Scott’s in-depth knowledge of the dental profession and, even more importantly, his outstanding dedication to his clients, will make him an extremely valuable member of your transition team. Scott was always available to answer any questions or concerns and facilitated the transaction in a smooth and stress free manner. I highly recommend NPT.

Dan, I want to thank you for your invaluable assistance in the sale of my practice.  As a repeat client, I can say that you have consistently been tireless in your efforts to connect me to the right people to create a win/win agreement.  I would wholeheartedly recommend Choice Transitions to anyone contemplating a practice transition of their own.

Just a short note to thank you for helping me with the sale of my dental practice. Although the circumstances were somewhat difficult, the transition was made easier with your guidance.

NPT and Bernie Kowalski did a great job in valuing and marketing my practice.  They were very efficient and professional and did find a buyer for my practice.

Dr. Lee Flinner, DMD

Our experience with NPT was excellent from start to finish. Amanda was wonderful to work with. She's a great communicator, responsive & did an outstanding job helping us navigate several unexpected hurdles. We had lots of questions & both Scott & Amanda were very patient with answering all of them & helping to walk us through the process. If you want a broker who is undoubtedly on your team, we can recommend Amanda Christy & NPT without reservations.

I am so glad a colleague suggested I give you a call! You have helped me achieve a dream I’ve held for so long. Thank you for all that you’ve done for me. The entire purchasing process was comfortable for me and a lot of that had to do with you and your integrity. Thank you so much.

Steve Goodwin, DMD
Suffield, CT

Just a note of thanks to Bernie and Choice Transitions for all the help with the sale of my practice.  We faced a "few" obstacles along the way but in the end, with Bernie's guidance, the deal was closed.  I couldn't have asked for a better Christmas present.  Thanks for everything.

John Ifkovitz, DDS
Northampton County, PA

It was a pleasure dealing with NPT. You were honest and pleasant and always available to deal with my questions and concerns. You were always accessible and returned every one of my calls immediately. Furthermore, you even continued to help with issues even after your part of the process was over! I would highly recommend you (NPT) for any transition needs.

Virginia Plaisted, DDS
Delmar, NY

I was somewhat reluctant to begin this process, NPT and in particular Dr. Fred Bacon, were able to guide me through the process. Working with Fred and NPT proved to be very rewarding, personally and financially. NPT has an extensive network of contacts, and presented only credible candidates. They were very determined to work with my many difficulties and inexperience, and guide me through to completion. I recommend NPT without reservation to anyone seeking a professional transition.
