The Company
Established in 2015, Clyde Munro is a fast-growing, private equity backed dental group with patient care and experience at the top of the agenda. Benefitting from being able to provide both NHS and private services through a wide variety of treatments, Scotland’s fastest growing dental group believes that dentistry should be accessible and convenient. Dental wellbeing is their key priority and they work closely with their patients to help make sure they maintain healthy teeth and gums for life through the provision of a forward-thinking and modern approach.
The Clyde Munro network of practices supports their patients through regular dental check-ups and hygiene visits, more complex and advanced treatments and a range of innovative cosmetic procedures. Their staff understand the importance of building relationships through the provision of excellent customer service and creating and maintaining a friendly and welcoming environment to ensure patient comfort, ease and satisfaction.
The Clyde Munro group is exceptionally passionate about their profession and the staff are trained to high levels to ensure patients consistently receive quality care, no matter which practice they choose to visit. As the group and team expands, they will continue to instil this supportive and positive ethos so that their patients, and the communities in which they operate, always receive the very best in dental care.
Clyde Munro is looking to build on the positive political position where the Scottish Government has invested significant amounts of money in NHS dentistry. Clyde Munro is deeply committed to increasing patient access to dental services through a combination of optimising the existing estate, expanding surgeries, building new surgeries and selective acquisitions.
Investec acquired the business from Synova in March 2025 and are now supporting in the next phase of growth. The team is led by Jim Hall (CEO) and Chris Howell (Non-Executive Chairman). Synova’s investment facilitated the platform acquisition of a group of practices based in the West of Scotland and provided significant further capital for investment to build the leading dental group in Scotland. Currently, Clyde Munro has 64 practices and over 300 dentists serving over 350,000 patients across Scotland. Current revenues are over £65m per annum and the business employs c. 500 people.
