Scaling Your Dental Group? The Reality Behind the Challenges (And What You Can Do)

Hi everyone,

Running one dental clinic is tough. Running several? That’s a whole new challenge - with higher costs, more people to manage, and a lot more moving parts.

What the Data Shows
• The UK high street dentistry market is now worth about £12.16 billion (2023/24) - up 9.2% from last year, with nearly 70% coming from private dentistry. (Source)
• About 62% of dentists say rising costs like rent, materials, and staff wages are their biggest concern. (Source)
• The market for Dental Service Organisations (DSOs) and Dental Groups is growing fast - expected to rise by 18–19% every year until 2030. (Source)

Why Group Owners Struggle
If you run multiple clinics, you’ve likely seen these issues:
• Costs vary across sites, eating into profits.
• HR headaches - hiring, training, and keeping good staff gets harder as you expand.
• Repeated admin work - finance, procurement, and management done differently at each site.
• Maintaining consistent quality across all clinics becomes a real challenge.

How Global Capability Centres (GCCs) Can Help
Our new guide, “Global Capability Centres for Dental Service Organisations,” explains how you can:
• Centralise finance, HR, and admin to save costs and streamline processes. It’s usually the central costs that ultimately the valuation of a group on exit, so having a strong control over these is essential
• Keep staff quality, pricing, and patient experience consistent across clinics.
• Cut down redundancy and reduce overheads.
• Protect profit margins while you grow.

If you’ve ever thought:

• “I wish I had better control over costs.”

• “Our admin is too fragmented.”

• “We need consistent systems across all our clinics.”

…then this guide on our Samera Global is exactly what you need.
