What Dentego does

Dentego, legally ADENTAL GROUPE SAS, is a French dental healthcare services company operating the country's largest branded network of dental health centers. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Boulogne-Billancourt, the network had scaled to 107 centers across France by 2025, staffed by 2,267 dental professionals, dental assistants, and administrative personnel (with total collaborators stated as 2,525 across sources). Dentego delivers a full range of dental specialties under one roof, including general dental care, orthodontics, dental prostheses and implants, aesthetic dentistry, radiology, emergency services, pedodontics, and periodontology, and serves roughly 1.2 million patients and 2,041,395 appointments annually with a stated 9/10 patient satisfaction rating.

The operating model is direct-to-consumer: patients book appointments through the Doctolib platform or by telephone, visit a nearby center, and receive care reimbursed by the French Sécurité Sociale and supplementary mutual insurance under the tiers payant (third-party payment) arrangement, eliminating most upfront patient cost. The company earns revenue per transaction across covered and non-covered services, including a 450€ home teeth whitening unit-priced offering, while benefiting from the 100% Santé reform that mandates fully reimbursed basic dental prosthetics. Technology infrastructure includes HDS-certified document management via Zeendoc (processing 300,000 patient documents and 50,000-60,000 invoices per year across ~100 centers, reducing admin headcount from 10 to 4), Partoo's AI customer service layer, Doctolib booking integration, Microsoft Azure hosting in Amsterdam, and the Académie Dentego internal training program delivering 13,000 hours of continuing education in 2025.

The go-to-market relies on geographic proximity (centers located near public transport in city centers), digital channels (website, Doctolib, social media), and government program participation (Génération sans carie effective April 2025 for ages 3-24). Customer segments are horizontal, spanning general public, specialized care seekers, and now pediatric preventive care, with no B2B or named enterprise accounts disclosed. The company is privately held with no institutional investors, funding rounds, acquisitions, or IPO events identified in available sources, and is led by Raphaël TAPIERO as Directeur de la publication.
