Want to own? We’re in Business
Qualified support that leads to quantifiable success.
The flexibility, independence and prestige associated with owning your own clinic can bring professional and personal fulfilment and, for many orthodontists, is the culmination of a lifetime’s ambition. However, to be a successful practice owner involves a great deal of work – both in establishing and growing the practice, and in ongoing management – stress, and an additional set of skills to supplement also being an outstanding clinician.
Smile Partners removes these barriers by providing ownership opportunities along with business and management support.
Established practices
We offer ownership positions in well established, successful practices throughout Australia, eliminating the need to start from scratch.
Business & management support
We provide support throughout the transition process and once you are an owner, enabling you to focus on the nuances of practice ownership, and developing and honing your clinical skills.
Track record of success
We bring a unique expertise, experience and proven track record of successfully owning, managing and advising numerous orthodontic practices across Australia, providing you with the best chance of continued success in your new practice.
Utilising technology
Many of our practices have embraced cutting edge technologies, to provide an improved patient experience. If this interests you, we can help to implement these technologies using tried and tested systems and processes.
Clinical freedom
We don’t impose any clinical or operating methodologies on our orthodontists. You will retain absolute clinical autonomy.
Community & mentorship
We provide access to a community of like-minded orthodontists, along with mentorship opportunities for you, your partners/associates, and your wider team.
Owning my own specialist practice has always been an ambition, but finding the right opportunity or starting from scratch is difficult. Smile Partners provided the opportunity to take over a strong, established practice but with support on the various business and practice management aspects. They helped me to transition into the practice, build a strong relationship with the staff, make the changes needed to suit the way I like to work, all while ensuring my complete clinical autonomy.
When the long-term principal orthodontist in an established practice retires, the practice often declines. In our first 18 months working together, we have grown the practice by over 20%.
Our locations
The Smile Partners group comprises 35 specialist orthodontic clinics, located across six states and territories.
