£10,000+ is Lost Each Year from Unnoticed Leaks

Most dentists stay on top of their patients’ oral health. But when it comes to their own practice’s financial health? That often gets pushed to the bottom of the list.

And I get it. Between back-to-back patients, staff management, and compliance headaches, sitting down to review cash flow or overheads isn’t exactly top of mind. But here’s the reality—if you don’t check your numbers, they’ll catch up with you eventually.

Good Turnover Doesn’t Always Mean Good Health

I’ve worked with clinics that are fully booked for weeks, bringing in six figures every month—yet still struggling to pay their bills on time. Why? Because high turnover doesn’t equal profitability if margins are tight, costs are creeping up, or money is leaking out in ways you’re not tracking.

A recent study found that 82% of small businesses fail due to poor cash flow management, not a lack of revenue. It’s not about how much you make—it’s about what you keep.

The Red Flags You Might Be Missing

You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from a financial health check. Sometimes, things feel like they’re “working fine,” but under the surface, warning signs are building:

• Cash reserves getting smaller

• Tax bills catching you off guard

• Supplier costs going up without you realising

• Profit margins shrinking quietly over time

These are the kinds of issues we’ve caught early in our own clinics, because we built regular check-ups into our systems. It’s what gives us control. Without them, you’re running blind.

What a Financial Health Check Can Actually Do

A financial health check helps you zoom out, spot patterns, and make smarter decisions with confidence. All in all, it helps you understand how your business is really doing.

One of the biggest things it reveals is whether your pricing still works in today’s cost environment. With lab bills, materials, and wages creeping up, it’s easy to find yourself charging yesterday’s prices while absorbing today’s costs.

That’s a slow leak most practice owners don’t notice until it’s too late.

It also shines a light on where money is getting tied up—be it in overstocked supplies, missed tax reliefs, or inefficient systems.

And finally, it brings structure to decision-making. Whether you’re planning to hire, expand, or even just navigate the quieter seasons, a financial health check gives you the visibility to act from a place of control.

How We Help You Get Back in Control

At Samera, we’ve built our own clinics to run with these check-ups in place. That’s how we spot issues early and create space for growth. Now, we help other practices do the same through our Financial Health Check-up service.
