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

Thank you for helping us through this big transition. Now I understand the complexities of selling a practice. Again, your patience and calm were helpful. I am thankful that Jason Gamble. with NPT, worked with me to sell my practice in a timely manner. He coordinated all the people involved in the transaction and was always available to me for questions and answers. I would recommend him to help other dentists, as he is a true professional.

I was looking to sell my practice, but not retire completely.  Dr. Kowalski not only found the right buyer, but facilitated the entire process effortlessly.  His help continued after the sale as he followed through on several small issues.  I would recommend him highly.

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."

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 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

Dr. Harry Snydman was the broker who handled the sale of our practice. Harry turned every stone to find an excellent buyer and handled all of the details and paperwork, allowing us to concentrate on our patients. As a dentist himself he understands all of the nuances of practice transitions and will work tirelessly until you have a successful sale. He couldn’t have been better.
