Navigating Growth and Legacy in Dentistry

In this episode, Jay Geier sits down with Dr. Todd Sala to discuss the realities of running and scaling a private practice—the lessons they don’t teach you in dental school. From taking over a 110-year-old family practice to expanding from 8 to 34 operatories, Todd shares the hard-earned insights that transformed his business.

They dive into the financial side of growth, including capital expenditures, cash flow management, and smart borrowing strategies. They also tackle common struggles dentists face, such as delegation, leadership, and avoiding burnout, and why so many private practice owners stay stuck in survival mode.

Jay and Todd explore the importance of coaching, strategic thinking, and building a business that serves both your financial and personal goals. Plus, they introduce Klear Impakt, a buying group designed to help independent dentists lower costs and increase profitability.

If you want to build a thriving, scalable, and financially successful practice, this episode is packed with real-world advice and actionable strategies you won’t learn in dental school!
