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

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!

Dr. Pat Long DDS
Shadyside, OH

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.

Transitioning with Jason Gamble and NPT was orchestrated with a high level of professional knowledge, efficiency, and above all compassion, during a potentially anxious time of exiting or entering a practice. I highly recommend their team!

Deborah Champion, DDS

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.

Joshua M. Erekson, D.D.S.
Charlotte, NC

I would like to thank NPT and especially Dr. Fred Bacon for not giving up on the sale of my practice. I think I gave them a real challenge, but they came through with the kind of deal that suited my situation perfectly. I highly recommend NPT for any sale or transition.

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.

"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

Change is always stressful but I have learned that the right professional can mitigate the anxiety. Dan found the right match and took care of all the details. I am now looking forward to the next chapter in my career with great optimism. I could not imagine going through the process without Dan and NPT.
