The Presque Isle area is a great place to raise a family with a low cost of living in a safe tight knit community. The schools are very good with excellent facilities and the school is big enough to compete on a state level in many sports including hosting the state soccer championships every other year on the beautiful new turf field. The Nordic Heritage Center has world-class cross-country ski trails and has hosted two World Cup Biathlon events that were broadcast to 10’s of millions of viewers in Europe.
Northern Maine Regional Airport provides jet service to Boston daily so you can easily travel anywhere while enjoying living in a close-knit rural community.

Presque Isle combines charm with the amenities and services of a regional center, including two colleges, making it a unique and welcoming place.
The almost unlimited practice opportunity along with the low cost of living make this practice an amazing opportunity. The community has supported 3 orthodontists for the last 30 years and now has consolidated into one practice. The seller has changed to a 100 percent digital practice with Lightforce used on every fixed patient and Invisalign used on every aligner patient which allows the practice to extend patient visits and start more patients while maintaining a 4-day workweek.  Another advantage of this exclusive practice is that there is no need for any marketing since exams are already booked out 4-6 months.
The current owner loves this practice but he is 62 and wants to be sure the community has a long-term orthodontist. He is willing to stay on as long as the buyer wants to help with the transition and he would be open to working as an associate for a few years if the buyer desired.
