Dental Practice Advisory Services
Strengthen Your Practice & Your Financial Future
With decades of experience serving dental practices across the country, we help clients make smarter business decisions, uncover tax-saving opportunities, and build a more organized, profitable practice. We provide ongoing advisory support to help dentists operate more efficiently, make decisions with greater confidence, and move closer to financial independence.
Dental Practice Advisory
We help dentists build a strong financial foundation while providing the accounting insight, industry benchmarking, and tax-smart guidance needed to make confident business decisions, improve profitability, and create long-term practice value.
Dental Practice Transitions
Whether a dentist is buying a practice, preparing to sell, or evaluating what the next chapter should look like, we help bring an experienced financial perspective to the transition. We analyze the numbers behind the decision, support buy-sell conversations, and help clients move forward with a clearer understanding of how the transaction could affect both the practice and their long-term financial picture.
Tax Planning & Preparation
Tax planning is one of the most valuable parts of our work with dentists. Instead of treating taxes as complete on April 15, we help clients make proactive planning decisions and implement tax strategies that can save significant money, improve profitability, and put more of what they earn toward Point X and long-term generational wealth.
Tax Compliance
We help dental clients stay on top of required filings and reporting while keeping those compliance needs connected to a bigger, year-round tax strategy. Tax compliance is an important part of the work, but we are intentional about keeping it connected to the broader strategy.
Industry Benchmarking
Because we work extensively with dental practices, we are able to compare a client’s financial performance against practices across the country. That benchmarking insight can help dentists better understand where they are outperforming, where margins may be under pressure, and where adjustments could strengthen the business over time.

Dental Practice Testimonials
“All CPAs are not created equal is an understatement. In my profession, I hear from several doctors that are discontent with their CPA and lack of knowledge in respect to their practices. This has not been the case with Vento CPA. They have always been extremely attentive, communicative, knowledgeable, and caring, descriptions I have never heard any of my colleagues use in describing their own CPAs. If you want a high level of service, this firm can be a great option, and everyone I have recommended can say the same. If you're tired of wondering why your CPA is failing miserably at their job maybe it's time to switch to Vento.”

“I have been a client of John Vento CPA Firm since 1997. I was a recent graduate, with a newly opened practice, who had plenty due in student loans, and a large amount of taxes unpaid due to mismanagement... When I approached the firm with my current financial hardships, Mr. Vento and his team worked tirelessly to solve my problems and issues. Not only did the firm deliver, they surpassed my expectations and developed a plan to maximize my tax advantages, they have guided me in running my practice smoothly...
Since working with John Vento CPA, my personal and business finances have been and remain in order. They are a full service firm that has assessed me with filing tax returns; buying properties and helping me find the most suitable companies who better serve my interests.
Throughout the many years of working side by side I can say that Mr. John Vento and his firm, which includes his son John J. Vento Jr., are professional, knowledgeable and savvy tax-planners with the human touch to address all of your concerns. Not only have we developed a solid client relationship but a friendship as well. They are available when you most need it.
I feel comfortable with where Mr. Vento’s advisement and strategies have placed me. At age 50, I feel I have made strong financial progress by following the strategies he recommends. I can say that I have worked very hard, and I credit a significant portion of my progress to the advisement I received from him and the firm. I cannot emphasize enough the difference that working with the firm has made in my life and always question myself why I did not make the decision sooner.
It is needless to say how grateful I am with the entire staff. Thank you all because with all of you, I have confidence in my finances.”

“As dental practice owners, we feel very fortunate to have stumbled upon John Vento and his wonderful team... We started up with them in 2014 and saved on taxes that year.
He is committed to educating his clients and always listens to our concerns. With his two books, guest appearances on Fox as a tax expert and numerous lectures he proves that the tax world is indeed understandable to the average person. He is well versed in tax planning, corporation benefits, and making sure that you receive every deduction that you're entitled to.
He never makes you feel like you have asked a stupid question, although I'm sure we have deserved some eye rolling!
Now we have organized, accurate reports that help us track our progress. Since he specializes in dental practices, we know that his information is timely and up to date.
One of the best parts about John Vento's firm however, is the efficient responses. Each one of his employees is dedicated to responding to your questions quickly, which during this pandemic has been greatly appreciated. Their help with navigating the ever changing PPP loan information was invaluable.
The firm treats everyone with respect and courtesy, yet make you feel like family. Our only regret is that we didn't begin working with John Vento sooner. Do yourself a favor and sign on with them ASAP.”
— Kevin and Mindy Poupore, Kevin Poupore DDS PC, Malone, NY
