Retiring Dentist Resources

When you are considering retiring or selling your practice, visit the links below for retiring dentists to review comprehensive checklists and other considerations that will allow you to transfer your practice smoothly and guarantee an easy transition.

If you are ready to retire the Mississippi Dental Association can help!

First, In order to set the process in motion you must fill out a Retired Affidavit which can be found on your MyADA member profile under forms.  This is required to start the process and will be used to update your official retirement status with the ADA and MDA. 

When the application process is completed, the ADA will notify you via email and your retired membership status will be updated in your record.

Second, the ADA's Guide to Closing a Dental Practice contains useful information. 

You can also contact the MDA office at office@msdental.org to place a classified ad to help sell your practice, look for associates or sell equipment. Ad placement is free for our members. Note free advertising does not apply if you are using a professional transition company in the sale of your practice.

We hope you will take advantage of the resources of your dental association as you plan for retirement.
