Financing dental equipment: the basics
RCR International Finance LLC arranges dental equipment financing for businesses acquiring healthcare equipment. Because the asset secures the deal, dental equipment is one of the more accessible commercial structures, and it keeps working capital free for payroll, materials, and growth. Subject to underwriting and approval.
New dental equipment financing supports the latest digital workflows and full warranties, fitting buildouts and long-term use. Certified used and refurbished dental equipment is commonly financed at lower cost when it meets quality standards. Both new and used purchases are subject to underwriting and approval.
A loan builds ownership of durable operatory equipment a practice plans to keep. A lease can suit rapidly advancing digital imaging and CAD/CAM systems, enabling periodic upgrades and predictable budgeting. The right choice depends on useful life and your practice's cash flow and tax planning.
Loan vs lease: which fits this asset?
Both options finance dental equipment, the right choice depends on how long you keep the asset and whether ownership or lower payments matters more.
Equipment Loan
Build ownership
- You own the equipment outright at the end of the term
- Builds equity in the asset as you pay it down
- Best for equipment with a long, productive useful life
- Payments are typically higher than a comparable lease
Equipment Lease
Lower payments, flexibility
- Lower monthly payments to preserve cash flow
- Flexibility to upgrade, renew, or return at term end
- Best for assets you replace or upgrade often
- End-of-term purchase options may be available
Soft costs you can often include
Financing frequently covers more than the sticker price, so the asset is working from day one.
