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 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.

Joshua M. Erekson, D.D.S.
Charlotte, NC

I would like to thank NPT and especially Dr. Fred Bacon for not giving up on the sale of my practice. I think I gave them a real challenge, but they came through with the kind of deal that suited my situation perfectly. I highly recommend NPT for any sale or transition.

Joseph M. Ross, DDS
White County, TN

“I cannot thank you enough for making the sale of my practice such a seamless process. Your knowledge and guidance were invaluable! I highly recommend Dr. Bacon and the entire team at Choice Transitions!”

Marilyn Phillips, DDS
Fayette 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

“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

“One of the most impressive things about Jason Gamble and National Practice Transitions is that he found me a qualified buyer in less than one month. And after the purchase agreement was complete, Jason continued to follow up to make sure that the transition was smooth. I would recommend Jason Gamble and National Practice Transitions to any doctors wishing to transition their Practice.”

The practice of Richard A. Siegel, DDS
Franklin County, OH

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

My experience with Scott Cabral and National Practice Transitions was excellent. Scott more than earned his fee. His ability to formulate the deal, shepard it and then promote a smooth closing were very necessary and appreciated.

Alan L. Ross, DMD
Torrington, 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.
