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

I wish to recommend Dr. Fred Bacon of Choice Transmissions. He was the broker for the sale of my dental practice which was difficult and complicated. My practice had a number of impediments to a quick sale. However, Dr. Bacon succeeded where others had failed. He was able to locate a prospective buyer, and I am enjoying retirement today. Dr. Bacon made himself readily available and was easy to do business with.

Robert Matthews, DDS
Anderson County, TN

I appreciate the service Choice Transitions and Fred Bacon provided during the sale and transition of my practice. He was always accessible and timely in returning my phone calls. Selling my practice and retiring were stressful events but Fred made the process less so. I have known Fred for 40 years and I chose him and Choice Transitions because I knew he would represent me well. And he did! The buyer is transitioning well with the staff and patients. 

Dr. Stanley Crunk
Shelby County, TN

Your help in negotiating a fair deal for both parties, smoothing out snags from the lawyers, informing the staff of the transition plan, and follow-up advice after the sale were all invaluable.

Helen Molloy, DMD
Falmouth, MA

I was referred to Dan Baccari and Choice Transitions by a friend who had recently sold his dental practice.  Unequivocally, it was the best decision I could have made.  If you are serious about selling your practice, your first call should be to Dan Baccari and Choice Transitions.  You will not be disappointed.

Carl Ferreira, DMD
Bristol County, MA

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.

Matthew B. Sandler, D.M.D
Weymouth, MA

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

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

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!!

Dr. Chris Latvis and D. John Latvis Jr
Litchfield County, CT

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

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.
