Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) August 9, 2006 -- “While most dentists skillyfully work to create clean teeth and a beautiful smile, they may not have the proficiency needed to handle the business end of dentistry, states author Larry Mathis. Financial management among many dentists is sorely lacking.” Mathis began working with Dentists 18 years ago after he discovered that most dentists have not put together any kind of comprehensive plan to manage their business income. In fact, while essentially in business for themselves, many have had no formal education in running a business or learned basic money management skills.

“When I realized the difference a financial strategy makes for dental professionals," says Mathis, author of a new book ‘Bridging the Financial Gap for Dentists,’ "I began to focus my work on helping dentists to create a comprehensive financial plan for their income.

Unique to Mathis’ approach is planning by values and what is important to the client. “Helping people identify what they value and designing a financial plan to achieve that in life is always my goal," shares Mathis. "Many financial planners are simply there to sell a product and make a commission. My strategy is to look at the whole picture and create a plan that will allow them to live the life that accomplishes the things that are important to them, whether it be spending more time with their kids or traveling a month out of each year.”

Mathis has put the advice he gives his clients down in book form because the information is so important. “After presenting at a workshop for dentists the feedback was so positive I knew this was a message that needed to reach a larger audience,” said Mathis. Bridging The Financial Gap for Dentists will help dentists discover how to live life based upon those things that they value most and encourage them to develop a financial strategy to help them enjoy the rewards now and in the future.

Bridging The Financial Gap is full of practical application techniques to help maximize wealth potential and avoid costly mistakes commonly made by dental professionals. Mathis will help dentists achieve personal and financial goals in the time frame they are hoping for and will give simple steps that can be implemented now to improve their immediate financial situation.

Regardless of where a dentist stands financially at this moment, whether just getting started, or they have been practicing for many years, whether they have tons of debt or are already financially independent, Bridging the Financial Gap will help the reader make smart financial choices that will start them down the path toward living a life that fulfills their goals.

If you have a financial planner already and have been wondering, “Does my financial planner really have my best interest in mind?” Bridging the Financial Gap for Dentists, will give you the knowledge to know whether you are working with a true financial professional or just another financial “sales person.”

During His 18-year career in the financial services industry, Mathis has assisted scores of dental professionals including: General Dentists, Orthodontists, Endodontists, Periodontists, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, Pediatric Dentists, and Prosthodontists. Mathis is a Certified Financial Planner ™ and has an extensive background in financial planning: including investment management, estate planning, employee benefits and insurance planning, as well as cash management and debt elimination. Mathis’ primary goal is to help clients simplify and improve their lives by inspiring them to implement financial strategies based on what they value most in life.
