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.

em>“We just wanted to drop you a note, Rick, thanking you and NPT for your assistance in selling our dental practice. You were readily available during the whole process (from appraisal to final sale). We were particularly impressed with your negotiation skills. The deal you crafted between us (the sellers) and the buyer was a well thought-out arrangement creating a win for both parties. Again, Thank You and NPT!!"

“The sale of a  practice has unique challenges. Much to my surprise, Choice Transitions found the ideal buyer for my rural oral surgery practice within less than a month of the listing. I am appreciative of their efforts, the results of which allow me the opportunity to pursue my retirement dreams. A special thanks to Choice representative Ken Polke.”

Richard L. Powell, DDS
Tuscarawas County, OH

Dr. Bacon and Choice Transitions guided me through several options and found the best candidate to take over my practice during very uncertain times. I appreciate the fact that he allowed me to decide what was best for me, just as an experienced and knowledgeable dentist would do for their patient. I highly recommend having a conversation with Dr. Bacon if you are considering selling your practice."

Chris Anderson, DDS
Coffee County, TN

I'd like to express my gratitude for your assistance in sale of my practice. Your professionalism, deep knowledge of all complex aspects of transition, as well as personal involvement and attention to detail resulted in speedy and smooth transaction.  You made it so easy for both sides!   I am, most certainly, going to recommend your services to any of my colleagues who are or will soon be interested in sale of their practices. Thanks again for great work!

Dr. Kinga Kostolowska, DMD
Montgomery County, PA

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.

Joseph F. Dove, DDS
Shelby County, TN

Making the decision to sell your practice is not an easy one. However, I knew that working with Scott Cabral and his team would be much easier than trying to do things on my own. NPT did an outstanding job coordinating all the pieces and putting together the package that resulted in the sale of my practice with very little stress. I would recommend NPT to anyone considering selling or planning ahead to sell their practice.

Mary Jane Hanlon, DMD
Lexington, MA

At times there was some bumps in the road selling the practice, but with Bernie's persistence the practice was sold.  I want to thank Bernie for not giving up, hats off.  Thank you National Practice Transitions.

Ronald F. Schultz, DDS
Franklin County, PA

My broker, Dr. Harry Snydman, is a dentist who actually understands dental aspects of the transition and that's a huge plus when you need to discuss the concerns that come with the selling or buying practice. Dr. Snydman understood my current situation of selling the practice and worked with me all the way to the end to keep the sale discrete and confidential.

Benjamin Lee, DMD
Fairfax County, VA

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.
