Three things that move your multiple
Helpful to have to hand: your fee income, your number of surgeries and, if you know it, your EBITDA.
Size
Larger, more profitable practices can attract a different range of buyers, which may affect how they are priced. This tool uses the same multiple range at every size.
Owner dependence
The more of your practice's profit depends on your own clinical chair time, the more buyers may discount the valuation.

Here's your valuation range.
Here's what your practice could be worth, based on your details. A specialist can confirm a more detailed valuation.
Your next step

What else influences a practice's value
- NHS contract: contract value, UDA rate and renewal risk can matter as much as fee income.
- Private patient base: buyers look at patient retention and how much goodwill depends on you personally.
- Owner dependence: how much of the work and patient relationships sit with the principal, and the handover plan.
- Associates and staff: how stable the team is and how easy it is to recruit locally.
- Premises and equipment: lease terms, ownership and the investment the surgeries will need.
- Buyer type: an individual dentist, a corporate group or an investor may value the same practice differently.

Important: This is an indicative estimate from an automated calculator. It is not a formal valuation, a guaranteed sale price or an offer from a buyer, and it is not financial or legal advice. A proper valuation needs a review of your financial accounts, earnings adjustments, NHS and private contracts, property arrangements and relevant transaction evidence. The goodwill percentages are 2019 survey averages and may not reflect today's market. Your valuation figures are calculated in your browser and are not sent anywhere. The contact details you enter in the final step are sent to Dentists Who Invest.
