Services | Mehanna Advisors

One plan. Three jobs. Dentists only.

We don't have a services menu. We have The Treatment Plan: your books, your tax plan, and your returns, done by the same three people, all year. Everything else on this page is either an add-on to it or a project priced on a call.

The Treatment Plan

Three things, one fee, one team. Bookkeeping feeds the tax plan. The tax plan drives the return. Split any of them off and the other two get worse. So we don't.

01

Bookkeeping

Senior Accountant builds it. Client Controller reviews it.
  • Weekly transaction coding in QuickBooks Online or Xero
  • Bank and card reconciliation
  • Month-end close, every month, on a date you can plan around
  • Monthly financials in a format a dentist can read
  • Practice management system tied out to deposits, monthly
Not included: catch-up on prior years, daily reconciliation, KPI dashboards. See below.
02

Tax planning

Client Advisor runs it. Three scheduled calls a year.
  • Entity structure, and the S corp conversion if you're still a Schedule C
  • Owner compensation set to the number, not the guess
  • Equipment and build-out timing: Section 179, bonus, or neither
  • Retirement plan design that fits the payroll you actually have
  • Real estate: building entity, rent, cost segregation when it's worth it
  • Quarterly estimates recalculated from real numbers, not last year's
Not included: a monthly meeting. That's Concierge, below.
03

Tax prep

Same team. No handoff to a seasonal preparer.
  • Business return: 1120-S, 1065, or Schedule C
  • Owner's personal return, with the practice already in it
  • Building entity return if you own it, no extra charge
  • State and local filings for your practice state
  • IRS and state notices handled, not forwarded to you
Not included: more than three brokerage accounts or K-1s, multi-state associates, prior-year amendments. Quoted on a call.

Add-ons

These sit outside the plan because they're procedures, not levels of care. You add them when you need them.

Concierge

The Treatment Plan, monthly

Financials with KPIs, production per provider, overhead by category, collections ratio, plus a planning meeting every month instead of three a year. For owners who run the practice by the numbers or have a big year coming.

Daily Deposit Control

Fraud prevention

Every business day we match cash, check, and card deposits to your practice management system. Any shortage, any amount, you hear about it that day. After 90 clean days you can step down to twice weekly.

Payroll

Every other week

We run it, file it, and reconcile it to your books. Tax deposits, quarterlies, W-2s, hygienist 1099s, new-hire reporting. One state, one EIN, up to 20 employees.

Additional locations

Same entity

Separate books, one return. Priced per location. Four or more and we build the plan with you on a call.

Additional entities

Separate return

Its own books, its own return, its own planning. A second S corp is not a second location.

Projects

Real work with a beginning and an end. Priced on a call, scoped in writing, done by Bilal or under him.

Practice acquisition analysis

Before you sign

We rebuild the seller's numbers, test the bank's projections against them, and tell you what the practice is worth to you, not to the broker. Built on PracticeScope, the tool we wrote for this.

On a call

Sale or DSO offer

Before you respond

What the offer actually nets you after tax, what the rollover equity is really worth, and what to negotiate. We've read enough of these to know where the money hides.

On a call

Fractional CFO

With Bilal

Multi-location groups, build-outs, associate buy-ins, refinancing. Limited to a handful of engagements at a time.

On a call

Prior-year cleanup

Before we start

If the last CPA left a mess, we fix it before month one, as a fixed-price project, so the plan starts clean.

On a call

Who this is for

Being specific about who we don't serve is how we stay good at who we do.

A fit

  • You own a dental practice, or you're about to
  • You want the books, the plan, and the return from one team
  • You'd rather pay one monthly fee than get an invoice every time you call
  • You want to be told what to do, then decide

Not a fit

  • You want bookkeeping only, or tax prep only
  • You're not a dentist. We'll refer you to someone good
  • You want the cheapest CPA, not the one who knows your business
  • You want a return filed and no phone calls

Know your number before you book.

The calculator uses the same math we use on the call. Answer nine questions, get the monthly fee, then decide if the call is worth twenty minutes.
