By end-2022, he wants to add 20 dental units (functional dental chairs) to the 97 existing ones.
“For this year, the most important activity is strengthening medical teams in all the new centers of Ploiesti, Craiova, Brasov and Oradea. Then, expansion is set to be taken further. We target at least 3 cities in terms of new clinic openings and we will open a second new clinic in a city. This year’s investment budget will definitely top EUR3 million,” said Cristian Taban.
The company has 14 clinics in Romania, with the 15th set to be opened in Craiova. It is present in 7 cities, with an over 4,200-sqm area in terms of dental offices and 97 dental chairs. Dent Estet’s team tops 500 people, according to Cristian Taban.
The local dental services market revolved around EUR500 million in 2020. Cristian Taban says the market will definitely grow by at least 20% on the previous year. “It is heading toward EUR600 million and there’s still room for growth”.
Since 2016, Dent Estet has been part of MedLife group, listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange. Since then, in terms of turnover, the dental clinic network has posted over fourfold growth.
