I stopped by the booth of Large Practice Sales to chat with its cofounder, Chip Fichtner. He explained that LPS is in the business of helping dentists find great silent partners, called invisible dental support organizations (IDSO). He briefly discussed how this concept works and how it benefits practice owners.

IDSOs have recently accelerated in number. Large Practice Sales did $500 million in transactions last year. I asked him why someone would want to take on an IDSO, and he had plenty of great reasons.
