Strategic Tax Rules for Dentists: 7 Ways to Keep More of What You Earn
Save Your Seat Wednesday, September 30 at 12:00 PM CT
Seven tax rules changed this year. Do you know what they mean for your practice?
A new federal tax law changed how equipment, entities, retirement plans, real estate, and giving are taxed for practice owners. Most dentists have not had anyone connect these changes to their own numbers.
It is not one big change. It is seven specific ones, and stacked together they add up to a real planning window before December 31.
What you will learn:
Which of the seven tax law changes actually apply to your practice
How bonus depreciation and your entity structure work together
The new SALT cap, and what it means if you practice in a high-tax state
What to do before December 31, and what can wait
Before You File Another Return, Know This
A new tax law does not save you anything by itself.
We see dentists let real changes sit unused every year because nobody connected them to a dental practice.
Here is where things usually go wrong:
Equipment purchases get timed around the calendar year, not the tax year
Entity structure never gets revisited after the first year in practice
State tax planning stops at whatever the last CPA set up
Giving and estate timing get treated as an April decision instead of a December one
We will walk through the seven changes that actually apply to a dental practice, and what to do about each one before year end.
