Clinic profit and break-even calculator

Average fee per patient is your total takings for a typical month divided by the number of patients, not your consultation fee. Dental clinics in particular earn very different amounts per patient, so a real average from last month is better than a guess.

Materials and lab work per patient covers what you spend for each patient on average: composite, impression material, gloves, lab bills. Fixed costs are what you pay whether or not anyone comes: rent, salaries, electricity, internet, software. Add your own salary under salaries if you want the profit to mean money left over after paying yourself.

Break-even is the number of patients whose fees, after materials, cover the fixed costs. Every patient beyond it adds roughly the fee minus the materials to your profit, which is why a few more patients a day matter so much once the fixed costs are paid. If the result says you're below break-even, the usual levers are the fee, the number of working days, or a cost you can cut.

In FindClinica every fee and payment goes on the patient's visit and every clinic expense into Spendings, with today's, this month's and this year's totals. On the owner's phone, Statistics shows revenue, spending and profit by day, month or year, so you can fill this calculator with real figures, or stop needing it. The app doesn't export to Excel or Google Sheets; the numbers stay in the app.
