Dental Practice Equipment Appraisals – Why They Matter and How They Benefit You

We provide trusted, professional appraisals for dental and medical equipment throughout Ontario, helping dental AND ALL PROFESSION professionals make confident, informed decisions.

Running a successful dental practice means staying ahead—with modern, high-quality equipment that not only enhances patient care but also adds real value to your business. Whether you’re preparing to sell, applying for financing, managing insurance claims, or planning for growth, knowing the true value of your equipment is essential.

That’s where Lynx Machinery & Equipment Appraisals comes in. We provide trusted, professional appraisals for dental and medical equipment throughout Ontario, helping dental AND ALL PROFESSION professionals make confident, informed decisions.

When You Might Need a Dental Equipment Appraisal

1. Buying or Selling a Practice
Whether you're acquiring or selling a practice, understanding the fair market value of key equipment—dental chairs, imaging systems, x-ray units, sterilizers—is critical. A third-party appraisal ensures transparency and fair negotiations for both parties.

2. Insurance Coverage or Claims
Accurate equipment valuations help you recover the right amount in the event of damage, theft, or loss. Appraisals also support negotiations when setting or updating your insurance policy.

3. Financing or Leasing Equipment
Most lenders require a professional valuation of your current assets when applying for loans or leasing new equipment. A formal appraisal gives financial institutions the confidence they need to move forward.

4. Tax Planning and Depreciation
Up-to-date appraisals assist accountants in setting appropriate depreciation schedules and managing capital gains when equipment is sold or written off—especially important for practices with multiple treatment rooms.

5. Litigation or Partnership Disputes
In legal scenarios—whether involving a partnership split, divorce, or business dispute—an independent, certified appraisal provides a neutral, defensible basis for asset valuation.
