Patients Come First
Healthy, confident smiles for life is our mission at Gentle Dental. Since 1971, we have been leading the way in dental care. Our founding dentists believed that taking care of your health should fit your busy schedule. That’s why they built dental practices in convenient locations with convenient hours. We’re here when you need us.
Patients receive award-winning dental care from dentists who are graduates from top dental schools. Along with general dentistry, each location has specialty services which allows for high quality, coordinated care.
All Gentle Dentals are newly built or renovated and outfitted with the latest in dental technology including digital low radiation x-rays, 3D scanning, intraoral cameras, and even CERC same-day crowns at select locations.
IDH Group is the UK’s only fully integrated dental services company, with annual sales of circa £600m and more than 7000 employees and associates.
IDH functions through mydentist, which operates a network of 674 NHS funded and private pay dental practices across the UK; and Dental Directory, a dental services, wholesaling and supplies business. The group is passionate about providing good quality, affordable patient care and serves over 5 million patients each year. This reflects Tom’s values and beliefs in public service, the value of a mixed economy and the role of competition to deliver better public services.
IDH is owned by Carlyle, whom acquired the group in 2011, and is part financed by a high yield bond with a significant number of bond holders. Consequently, the group runs its processes in line with the listed company corporate governance best practice; with results published each quarter, annual investor road shows and formal audit, remuneration, nomination and rink committees.
