The Dentist's Choice Franchise

From the franchisor

How The Dentist's Choice describes this franchise

- Affordable Investment - Home-Based - No Employees Required

The Dentist’s Choice (TDC) is the leading network of dental handpiece repair specialists in the U.S. with over 120 franchise units throughout the U.S. and Canada. Founded in 1993, TDC has established a niche business that is focused on repairing and maintaining handpieces (drills) for dental offices, which are integral tools of the dental profession. The primary competitors of TDC franchisees are the handpiece manufacturers and dental supply companies themselves. However, dental offices appreciate the benefits of establishing relationships with local service technicians who can respond immediately to their needs and save them time and money (2-3 times current cost) in sharp contrast to the manufacturers and supply companies. TDC provides franchisees with comprehensive training and support along with a variety of resources to prepare them for a successful and lucrative career in a growing industry.

Who it fits

Ideal candidate

A successful franchisee is someone who is intelligent, self-motivated, outgoing and has good communication skills – all of which are vital to developing relationships with local dentist practitioners. The franchisee should also enjoy working with their hands and have at least a minimum of technical aptitude – although TDC’s comprehensive training and support ensures that all franchisees become skilled handpiece repair technicians.
