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

Thanks to NPT and Jason, I have fulfilled my dream of retirement in sunny Florida. Selling a practice in a small town can be very difficult but Jason made it a very smooth transition!

Dr. Pat Long DDS
Shadyside, OH

Working with National Practice Transitions could not have been a better experience. Dan and NPT were terrific. They were on top of all the details from the beginning and were always looking out for my best interest. Their knowledge and experience was extensive making the process easy and I cannot thank Dan and NPT enough.

Edward Donley, DMD
Watertown, MA

There are times in life when a simple thanks will suffice, but I would like to truly express my most sincere gratitude to Scott Cabral, Dr. Fred Bacon and those associated with National Practice Transitions. It's easy to say that they are a great group of dental brokerage consultants that are professional, efficient, and highly effective at selling dental practices, but that would sell them short.

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.

NPT was very knowledgeable about the practice I was looking at and the dental industry in the area. They were very accessible and prompt to answer questions I had.

I was very pleased with the service and results from Amanda Christy with NPT. She found a buyer for my practice in a very short time and was right there throughout the entire practice transition.

Samuel J. Randall, III, DDS
Charlotte, NC

Thank you again for all your help in the transition of my practice. You were "always there" when needed and made the process very smooth. It has been very easy to recommend you, without any reservation, to my friends and colleagues in the dental community.

Rick Moore, DDS
Jewett City, CT

I have had a positive experience with NPT- Choice Transitions.  On short notice, Bernie Kowalski was able to identify a dentist who was interested in becoming the custodian of my patient records.  He was very attentive and responsive to my calls and in moving the contract to successful conclusion.  I recommend him highly.

R. Lawrence Fraze, DDS
Somerset County, NJ

"The practice transition experience with Bernie and Choice Transitions exceeded all expectations.  He understood my needs and wants, took the time to listen closely to both parties, responded quickly to all communications, and closed the deal earlier than forecasted.  In the end he gave me a card which reflected who I am at my core, to put it simply he got me.  I truly appreciate everything he did to allow Esther and I an early retirement." 

Dr. Charles Harding, DMD, PC
Lehigh County, PA

I have been a client of Bernie Kowalski and Choice Transitions (NPT) since 2017.  He represented me in selling my practice and my wife's practice over the past years and through some difficult times.  He has been a loyal friend, a confidant and worked tirelessly for me since that time.  I highly recommend Bernie and the Choice Team."
