Founded in 2010, DentalPro owns and operates full-service dental clinics across Italy, most of which are conveniently located in shopping malls. By partnering with local dentists and providing comprehensive practice management support and training, DentalPro enables practitioners to focus on providing accessible and high-quality care to their patients. In 2015, DentalPro sought a financial partner to support its acquisition strategy and help accelerate the opening of new clinic locations. Summit’s experience in healthcare services – and in the dental sector more specifically – combined with our demonstrated expertise in acquisition integration positioned us well.
How Summit helped:
By 2017, DentalPro achieved market leadership in Italy, employing more than 500 dental professionals and serving 250,000 patients across its network of more than 110 full-service clinics. In 2017, DentalPro was acquired by BC Partners and aims to continue the expansion of its dental network.
DentalPro represents Summit’s third investment in the dental market and one of eighteen investments in the broader physician practice management market.
