Established in 1968, Dentist@29 is a reputable private dental practice that offers high-quality preventative dentistry, implants, and aesthetic treatments. It boasts a modern fit-out and feel, and two well-fitted surgeries, with room for more. The practice is ideally located on Castle Street, in the heart of the town centre of Northwich in Cheshire.
The business has been owned by Peter Young for over 30 years and was brought to market to allow him to retire.
Following a confidential sales process with Jonathan Watson at Christie & Co, it was purchased by a first-time buyer, Marina George of Ladywell Enterprises Limited.
Peter commented, “I bought the practice in 1990, and it was a 50/50 private NHS practice. In 1994, I went completely private with the help of a Denplan-led conversion. I then focussed on dental implant treatments. A couple of years back, I realised I did not want to run the business any longer.”
Marina said, “I graduated from Government Dental College, Thiruvananthapuram, in 1998 and worked in private practice in India until 2006. During this time, I also worked as a lecturer in the Department of Conservative Dentistry at Amrita School of Dentistry. I completed my ORE in 2008, registered with the General Dental Council, and started practicing in the UK in a predominantly NHS practice. In 2014, I completed a Multi-System Implantology Certification and started placing implants. Recently, I completed a Master's degree in Implantology at the University of Salford in July 2024.
“Following the completion of the purchase of this practice, I plan to run it solely as a private implant practice but will phase out into the digital aspect of implant technology and utilise the provision of two additional surgeries in the next three years.”
Jonathan Watson, director of dental at Christie & Co, said, “We are delighted to have assisted Peter and Marina in the successful sale and purchase of Dentist@29. This transaction highlights the strong demand for private dental practices in the current market. The interest in Dentist@29 underscores the ongoing trend where buyers are eager to acquire well-established, reputable practices in desirable locations. We are proud to have facilitated this deal and look forward to seeing their continued success in Cheshire's vibrant dental community.”
Sarah Brough, a solicitor on the corporate team at Forbes Solicitors, advised the seller. She said, “It has been a pleasure working with Peter and supporting the wider team on this transaction. We wish everyone involved all the best for the future.”
Dentist@29 was sold for an undisclosed price.
