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

Dr. Harry Snydman and his team were very helpful with the whole dental deal. With his extensive knowledge, experience, and well-rounded connection, the sale of the practice was executed in three months. Dr. Snydman was there for us all the time when we were concerned. His wise advice helped us to make good decisions. We were grateful for him.

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.

“I used Choice Transitions for my practice sale.  The buyer had previous experience with them and I thought that would make the buyer more comfortable. They proved to be very thorough and eased the final sale with a prepared contract and patient announcement letter.”

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.

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.

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.

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.

"Fred and the team at Choice Transitions/NPT were a great source for finding my ideal practice.  Fred was prompt in returning my calls and helped me set up a meet and greet with the seller and a tour of the office quickly, which was very helpful.  Thanks so much!" 

Dr. Brooklin Byrd, DDS
Shelby County, TN

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.

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.
