Frequently Asked Questions: Dental Real Estate
We got our start in dental practice real estate years ago and continue to lead in providing dental real estate and leasing services. Hundreds of dentists within Colorado, as well as nationwide, trust Tower Realty Partners with their real estate needs.
Here are some answers to frequently asked questions from the dentists and dental specialists we serve.
-
Leasing is typically the right choice for dentists who are opening a new practice or entering a new market, preserving capital for equipment, staff, and practice development while maintaining flexibility as the business grows. For established dentists with stable patient volume and a long-term commitment to their location, purchasing a building is a compelling wealth-building strategy that eliminates lease exposure and builds equity over time. Many dentists purchase their office building through a separate real estate holding entity and lease it back to the practice.
Our team can provide a straightforward lease-versus-own analysis to help you make the right decision for your financial goals and practice stage.
-
The best location for your dental practice depends on your specialty and target patient base. General dentistry practices perform well in high-traffic areas with strong surrounding residential demographics, convenient parking, and good visibility from major roads. Pediatric dental practices benefit from proximity to schools, family neighborhoods, and pediatric medical providers. Specialty practices such as orthodontics or oral surgery often rely more heavily on referral networks, making proximity to general dentists and other specialists a priority.
Tower Realty Partners analyzes your target demographics, referral relationships, and local competition to identify the strongest available locations for your practice in Colorado.
-
Most single-provider dental practices operate comfortably in 1,500 to 2,500 square feet. Multi-provider or specialty dental practices, such as orthodontic or oral surgery offices, often require 3,000 to 5,000 square feet or more. The right amount of space depends on your number of operatories, the services you offer, and your patient volume goals. Building in room for additional operatories from the start is a smart way to avoid a disruptive relocation as your practice grows.
Our team understands the unique real estate needs of dentists and dental specialists. We’ll help you define your space needs before beginning your property search.
-
Dental offices have more demanding infrastructure requirements than most medical office spaces. Each operatory requires dedicated plumbing for dental unit water lines and suction systems, adequate electrical circuits for dental chairs and equipment, and proper lighting. A central vacuum and air compressor system must be properly sized and housed in a mechanical or utility room. Sterilization rooms require plumbing and ventilation. Digital X-ray and cone beam CT imaging systems need appropriate electrical capacity and may require radiation shielding.
Tower Realty Partners conducts thorough infrastructure due diligence on every dental property we evaluate, so you are never caught off guard by costly modifications after signing your lease.
-
Most dental office projects take between 9 and 15 months from the start of the property search to opening day. Dental build-outs are among the most complex in healthcare real estate due to the specialized plumbing, electrical, and mechanical systems required in each operatory. The timeline typically includes property search and selection, lease negotiation, permitting, tenant improvements, equipment installation, and licensing. Starting your search as early as possible gives you the best selection of available spaces and the strongest negotiating position.
Our team will help you develop a realistic project timeline from day one, keeping your opening on track and on budget.
-
Yes. While Tower Realty Partners is headquartered in Colorado and has deep expertise in the Front Range and Western Slope markets, we partner with dental practice owners in many markets across the country. Whether you're in a major metro market or a smaller regional market, Tower brings the same level of specialized healthcare real estate expertise and tenant advocacy to your transaction.
WHY DENTAL REAL ESTATE REQUIRES A SPECIALIST
Finding the right space for a dental practice isn't like leasing typical office space. You need:
Specific infrastructure for operatories, sterilization areas, labs, and imaging equipment
Adequate plumbing and electrical capacity for dental-specific buildouts
Visibility and accessibility that attracts and retains patients
Demographics that align with your specialty and patient base
Lease terms that protect your investment in expensive tenant improvements
Most landlords and their brokers don't understand these nuances. They'll push you toward spaces that work for them—not for your practice. And without expert representation, you'll likely leave significant money on the table or lock yourself into terms that limit your future growth.
Whether you're launching your first practice, renegotiating a lease renewal, or expanding across Colorado's Front Range, the team at Tower is here to guide you through the process.
