Advertising feature A new approach
Dental Care Ireland is looking to create a high-quality group of dental practices in Ireland, with the patient at the very centre
E
stablished in October 20ı4 by brothers Colm and Kieran Davitt, Dental Care Ireland offers a new approach to the provision of dental
care in Ireland. According to Colm, CEO of the
company, its strategy is to acquire and invest in local dental practices and develop them in partnership with the incumbent dentist. As the former CEO of Euromedic
Ireland, which specialised in radiology, Colm has years of experience of building up successful group practices in this way. “This time last year I started looking at the dental sector and, given my expe-
rience in building Euromedic, I felt there was probably an opportunity in the dental sector to do something similar in terms of the creation of a high-quality group of dental practices,” he said. “The market is very fragmented
in Ireland, with most of the dental market comprised of single-handed practitioners. I felt that there was an opportunity to create a group which would take the best traditions of your local dental practitioner and work to support them in terms of a more contem- porary approach. We aim to take some of the hassle away from the dentists.” According to Colm, one of the key trends he has witnessed in dentistry in
Ireland in recent years is a reluctance on the part of younger dentists to own their own practices as it can come with all the potential headaches associated with running your own business, such as HR, administration costs etc. This is where Dental Care Ireland can help. By taking over the running of the business from an administration point of view, the dentist is free to concentrate on what they do best – taking care of patients. Colm explained: “Our strategy is to
acquire and invest in existing, strong, local dental practices and help to develop them into the future.
