The top fear we hear from dentists looking to sell is “what if everything changes?” Well, some change is inevitable and at times surprising, but it doesn’t have to be scary.

In this episode, we hear Dr. Lou Chmura’s story. He sold his practice, Chmura Orthodontics, a couple of years back after building it from the ground up. Now, he runs an orthodontics coaching company called Egghead Ortho to help orthodontists and dentists live a balanced, fulfilling life both in and out of the office.

While his sale worked out well in the end, Lou doesn’t sugarcoat the realities of selling your practice. He gets super honest about what he would have done differently if he could do it all again and shares some great advice for dentists looking to sell.

In This Episode:

Lou shares the background on his orthodontics practice and its unique approach to proactive care
Why he decided to sell despite his love for practicing orthodontics
Why getting into the “mode of more” makes dentists burn out
The top things Lou would have done differently if he could go back in time
How his team and patients reacted to the sale
How Lou is spending his free time now coaching other orthodontists
