This article describes the process of change in a specialist orthodontic practice from NHS to private, the development of a business plan and its subsequent implementation. The very nature of change is variability and the unique personality of an orthodontic practitioner and the make-up of the regional orthodontic environment mean that this article cannot provide a definitive guide to change. However, the general principles are applicable to changes in most circumstances and are illustrated with reference to the author's own practice.
本文描述了一家正畸专科诊所从国民保健制度（NHS）模式转变为私立模式的过程、商业计划的制定及其后续实施情况。变革的本质就是存在变数，正畸从业者的独特个性以及地区正畸环境的构成意味着本文无法提供变革的确定性指南。然而，这些一般原则适用于大多数情况下的变革，并结合作者自己的诊所情况加以说明。
