Dental Clinic?!

Dental Clinic?

Can I open a dental clinic? I'm not a dentist, but I would like to starta business, so I was thinking of open a dental clinic, with about 10 chairs in the place, and either rent the space to some dentist, or charge a percentage of the sales. Is it possible to do that or do I need to be a dentist to open a dental clinic? and why I'm looking to open a dental clinic? it's because my GF is in college and she will be a dentist, so I would like to have the business going now for her later. Any help it would be great.

But I don't mean to open the clinic now and work. We will be open it as a business and of course hire a few dentists to work for us. Something like Aspendental or some of thoses clinics

In the United States, it is illegal for a person who is not a dentist to open and own a dental office. Places like Aspendental actually have a dentist who is the corporate majority shareholder.

If you want to help your girlfriend, you should invest your money and let it grow while she is in dental school, and go work for a dental office as a front-desk person, so you can learn how to deal with insurance, billing and office management.

After she finishes dental school, you can help her open an office and help run the place as the office manager (but she as the dentist must be the owner).

Hope this helps.
