Palamon Capital Partners, a pan-European growth investor, has agreed to sell its majority stake in mydentist, to funds managed by Bridgepoint Advisors, marking the conclusion of a transformative partnership with the company’s management team since Palamon’s acquisition of a majority stake in 2021.
mydentist operates over 500 practices with more than 3,500 dental professionals and 2,500 surgeries. Serving around four million patients annually, the company offers services across NHS care, myoptions private care, and premium private care.
Under Palamon’s ownership, mydentist underwent a strategic transformation that delivered strong performance and value creation.
Key initiatives included refocusing the business through the sale of non-core distribution arm DD Group, simplifying operations and freeing up capital for investment, strengthening digital infrastructure and expanding access to affordable care for NHS and private patients, and accelerating recruitment efforts, particularly of overseas-qualified dentists, to address workforce shortages and enhance patient access across the network.
Led by the existing management team, these efforts drove substantial organic EBITDA growth, resulting in a 3x return for Palamon’s 2021 investors.
The sale is subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions and is expected to complete in Q3 2025.
