Why dental practices choose us
We speak clinic, not generic small business
Whether you run a general practice or a specialty clinic — orthodontics, periodontics, endodontics, oral surgery or pediatric dentistry — the money story is specific. Here is how bookkeeping supports it.
Dental professional corporations & owner pay
Many Ontario dentists practise through a dental professional corporation (DPC). Owner compensation may involve salary, dividends or both — your CPA decides the tax structure; we keep the books clear so draws, wages and corporate accounts are easy to review. General description only — not tax advice.
HST: exempt care, taxable cosmetics
CRA guidance is that most dental services by licensed dentists for medical reasons are GST/HST-exempt, while cosmetic procedures that are not medical or reconstructive are generally taxable. Practices with both may face input tax credit limits. We organize the records; your CPA advises on filing.
Associates, hygienists, labs & leases
Associate pay models, hygienist and team payroll, lab fees, clinical supplies, and equipment financing or leases all need consistent coding. Multi-location clinics get separate clarity without losing the big picture.
Day sheets, insurance & CDCP deposits
Patient payments, insurer EFTs and Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) deposits should tie to what left the practice management system. We reconcile those deposits in QuickBooks Online against your bank — so collections are not a mystery at month-end.
Practice software → QuickBooks Online
Clinics often run Dentrix, ABELDent, Tracker, Curve, ClearDent or similar. We are not affiliated with those products; we use the reports and exports you already produce so QuickBooks stays the financial source of truth.
Month-end close & practice KPIs
A steady close supports the numbers owners watch: production, collections and overhead percentage. We keep the books current so you and your CPA can read the story without a year-end scramble.
