Clove Dental, India’s largest dental clinic network, has launched 48 new clinics in a single day as it marks 15 years of operations—the largest single-day expansion by any dental network in the country. The milestone takes the company’s footprint to 715 clinics across 26 cities, supported by over 1,700 dentists, 1,100 dental assistants, and more than 500 professionals supporting its clinical infrastructure.
The expansion reflects the steady rise of organised dentistry in India, a sector historically dominated by fragmented single-clinic practices. Over the past 15 years, Clove Dental has treated more than 3.5 million patients across the full spectrum of dental care—from preventive cleanings and routine caries management to complex full-mouth rehabilitation involving multiple implants and fixed dentures—emerging as a leader across dental specialities, including orthodontics, Invisalign, Whistle Aligners, and braces.
From the outset, Clove Dental has focused on standardising clinical treatment protocols as well as operatory sterilisation and hygiene practices to ensure consistency across clinics. These standards are reinforced through unannounced biweekly audits conducted throughout the network.
The company has institutionalised a structured peer-review mechanism that enables dentists to discuss optimal treatment protocols through a proprietary dental application, ensuring that every patient benefits not only from a single clinician’s expertise but from the collective knowledge of over 1,700 dentists across the network.
Clove Dental has also deployed an integrated practice management system that fully digitises diagnosis, X-rays, treatment planning, and billing. AI-supported decision frameworks within its proprietary cloud platform help enhance treatment planning, improve clinical consistency, and reduce variability.
Standardised pricing and uniform treatment protocols across all clinics further ensure that patients receive the same level of care, transparency, and value—irrespective of location.
Clove Dental’s growth has been anchored in a deep and continuously evolving understanding of the Indian dental patient. Ongoing patient insights have consistently highlighted the importance of ethical, high-quality treatment plans, stringent clinical hygiene standards, and transparent pricing.
