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

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.

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.

Somerset County, NJ

"The practice transition experience with Bernie and Choice Transitions exceeded all expectations.  He understood my needs and wants, took the time to listen closely to both parties, responded quickly to all communications, and closed the deal earlier than forecasted.  In the end he gave me a card which reflected who I am at my core, to put it simply he got me.  I truly appreciate everything he did to allow Esther and I an early retirement." 

Dr. Charles Harding, DMD, PC
Lehigh County, PA

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.

Working with National Practice Transitions could not have been a better experience. Dan and NPT were terrific. They were on top of all the details from the beginning and were always looking out for my best interest. Their knowledge and experience was extensive making the process easy and I cannot thank Dan and NPT enough.

em>“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

“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 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

“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

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.
