It seems like no matter where you turn, from CE courses, to dental conferences, to webinars, trainings and more, doctors are getting more comfortable with the idea of upgrading to CBCT. And it's clear to see why, for many it's been a proven model for success.. allowing you to expand your service offering and keep more referrals in-house.

So, will 2025 be the year your practice makes the investment to upgrade from 2D imaging to 3D dental CBCT (cone beam)? If so, you’re in luck! There’s never been a better time to invest in CBCT.

With more CBCT brands in the market than ever before, prices continue to get more affordable while the technology steadily improves.

It’s hard to believe, but it’s that time of year again to start thinking about how to reduce your practice’s tax liability for 2024.

Section 179 of the IRS tax code, designed to encourage small businesses, including many private practices, to invest in their practice and allow them to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment and/or software that has been purchased or financed during the tax year from their total gross income.

For dental practices, this means that the cost of capital equipment such as CBCT, digital X-ray machines, intraoral scanners, and even software can be fully or partially deducted from gross income. This means your practice can write off the full purchase amount this year and are no longer required to depreciate the equipment over time as they have in previous tax years.

Calculating this deduction effectively can help reduce tax liabilities and improve cash flow for practices. Here’s a guide to understanding and calculating the Section 179 deduction for dental imaging equipment.

In today’s market, doctors are constantly searching for the best value to meet the needs of their practice. When it comes time to invest in new tech, researching to find the right fit at the best price can be critical - especially with seemingly endless options out there.
