Most dentists close on a practice, lock in the business overhead policy, and assume they're fully covered. But that policy pays your staff, your lease, your equipment loans, and after all of that, there's nothing left for your mortgage, car payment, or family expenses. Michael Dinsio and Paula Quinn break down the insurance gap that catches practice owners off guard and the two-policy setup that closes it.What you'll discover: why business overhead insurance leaves your personal income completely exposed, the surprising stat, dentists face nearly the same disability risk as construction workers, how relying on one policy leaves you short on both sides, the two-policy action plan every buyer and startup owner should lock in before closing day, and why personal disability coverage is the piece most docs skip until it's too late.Perfect for dentists buying a dental practice, planning a dental startup, or already running a dental practice without both policies in place.Here's the reality: disability risk doesn't care that you went to dental school. The physical demands of clinical work, awkward positioning, fine motor repetition, neck and shoulder strain, add up fast. Owning a dental practice means protecting it and yourself, and the time to get both policies locked in is before you close, not after.
