Britain’s Largest Dental Chain Announces Three-year Growth Strategy
Integrated Dental Holdings (IDH) in Bolton have employed Capita CEO Paul Pindar to lead their three-year growth strategy. Pindar aims to double revenues to £600m by expanding private treatments while retaining NHS provision. Private treatments, such as teeth whitening, modern aligners, veneers and dental implants, offer higher income stream potential.
A group of private equity firms – The Carlyle Group and Palamon Capita Partners – gained ownership of IDH in 2011, serving 1,500 UK dentists with more than 5 million dental patients. The takeover allowed the group to merge IDH and Palamon portfolio business Associated Dental Practices.
The IDH growth strategy includes striving to double the amount of dental practices in the group to 1,000. Pindar’s public sector experience is expected to boost IDH results, such as gaining 5 percent market share of 10,000 dental practices in the UK. IDH intends to develop existing operations for growth potential and future acquisitions are in the pipeline.
