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.

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.

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.

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.

“Dan and Choice Transitions team helped me to find the right buyer for my practice. Dan took the time to get to know me, and what was important to me for my practice and my team, and he helped me to find the perfect fit. I would recommend Dan and his team wholeheartedly if you are considering a practice transition of any kind.”          Dr. Traci Portnoff

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.

“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

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.

Reed David, DDS
Gatlinburg, TN

Bernie has been diligent in the sale of my practice. I would recommend anyone looking to buy or sell their practice go through Bernie at NPT. He was readily available no matter when to show the practice every time a buyer came to the office. His commitment speaks volumes compared to some other transition companies. He was always available to answer any questions or concerns." Thank you.

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.
