dentistry-1I am so thankful to make a recent discovery on saving money in my dental practice.  I work my fingers off daily and put in long hours for my patients.  I make great efforts to provide pain free dentistry offering laughing gas and special care at no extra cost.  It seems unfair that I face so much pain when take out my Monte Blanc pen and my business checkbook to pay the IRS their big fat quarterly tax payment.

One of my patients must have noticed my dismay because lying back in my dental chair was a CPA with a mouth full of cotton.  She has been a patient for six years but this is the first time she asked, “wha eps are ou aking ooo…” which translates without the cotton to, what steps are you taking to create a net present value calculator.  I looked at the inquirer politely and said that I know about molars, bicuspids, implants, root canals, etc.  I am not, however, a cost seg engineering specialist.  When she told me how much I could save on my quarterly taxes I knew we would need to have a more substantial conversation when the cotton was removed and the Novocain wore off.
