Why dentists trust Baker Tilly’s dental accounting services
Apr 15, 2025
Running a dental practice comes with many responsibilities, from ensuring excellent patient care to managing the financial health of your business. For dentists looking to improve profitability, streamline operations and plan for long-term growth, working with a member of the Academy of Dental CPAs (ADCPA) is essential. That’s where Baker Tilly’s dental accounting services come in.
As a founding member of the ADCPA, Baker Tilly offers specialized accounting, tax and advisory services tailored specifically for dental practices. Our team works with over 350 dental clients across the country and brings decades of experience helping providers navigate the complexities of running a successful dental practice.
Why work with an ADCPA member?
Not all accountants understand the unique nuances of the dental industry. As an ADCPA member, Baker Tilly delivers deep insight into the operational, regulatory and financial challenges dental practices face. We go beyond basic bookkeeping to provide strategic guidance that directly supports your business objectives — whether you’re a solo practitioner, part of a group practice or preparing for a transition.
Working with a dental-specific advisor gives your practice a competitive edge. From tax planning and compliance to overhead analysis and performance benchmarking, we align financial strategy with your goals so you can stay focused on patient care.
