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 and Dr. Bernie Kowalski made it easy to market and sell my practice with their thorough knowledge, continual follow-up, and providing necessary advice throughout every step of the way to the closing. Thank you again.

H.V. Dalsania, DDS
Lehigh County, PA

Thanks to NPT, my practice had a very smooth transition. Even under the best circumstances, it is a complicated process with unexpected bumps in the road. I cannot imagine having done this without NPT.

Robert Bird, Jr., DDS
Litchfield County, CT

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.

I want to thank you most sincerely for all your hard work with the sale of my practice. I'm really impressed and I don't impress very easily. You're a class act, making this as painless and pleasurable as could be. I would highly recommend your services to anyone!

Alan Sonn, DMD

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.

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!

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

“Just a note of thanks to Bernie and Choice Transitions for all the help with the sale of my practice.  We faced a "few" obstacles along the way but in the end, with Bernie's guidance, the deal was closed.  I couldn't have asked for a better Christmas present.  Thanks for everything.” 

John Ifkovitz, DDS
Northampton 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.
