Hohde Group

What Hohde Group does

Hohde Group (legal entity Hammas Hohde Oy) is a Finnish dentist-led private dental clinic chain founded in 2014 and headquartered in Kuopio, Finland. The company operates 34 clinic locations across 23 Finnish cities — anchored in Helsinki (7 clinics), Espoo (3), Vantaa (2), Tampere, Turku, and Oulu, and extending to regional centers including Kuopio, Lahti, Joensuu, Jyväskylä, Savonlinna, Seinäjoki, Mikkeli, Kajaani, Levi, and Ivalo. It employs approximately 520 dental professionals, comprising around 280 dental hygienists/oral health hygienists and 240 general dentists and dental specialists covering prosthodontics, periodontology, endodontics, orthodontics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, pediatric dentistry, and aesthetic dentistry. The company serves private individual consumers as its primary customer base, with secondary revenue from municipal service voucher patients (including Helsinki City) and corporate/occupational health contracts.

The service portfolio spans general dentistry, specialist treatments, oral surgery, dental implants, orthodontics (including Invisalign), CEREC-based same-visit ceramic restorations, aesthetic dentistry, general anaesthesia procedures, sleep apnea appliances, and dentures. The underlying technology stack includes the OmaHohde digital patient portal for 24/7 booking and chat, the Assisdent electronic patient information system (by Entteri Oy) integrated with Finland's national Kanta Services patient data repository since January 19, 2018, CEREC Primescan and CEREC digital dentistry systems for same-visit restorations, 3Shape Trios 5 intraoral scanners, and digital imaging including CBCT (KKTT) and panoramic X-rays at all locations. Payment options include card payments, Svea invoicing (EUR 4.90 billing fee), Resurs Bank installment financing, and accepted benefit vouchers (Smartum, Edenred, ePass).

Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service basis across all clinics, with pay-as-you-go unit pricing for general and specialist dental services (specialist endodontic work carries a +30% surcharge), plus transaction-fee revenue from municipal service voucher arrangements and recurring revenue from corporate/occupational health benefit contracts. The company markets direct-to-consumer through its website (hammashohde.fi), blog, Facebook, Instagram, and Vimeo channels, and uses a customer benefit of dental check-ups at up to 60% discount to drive acquisition. Hohde holds Key Flag (Avainlippu) certification denoting Finnish origin, STUK radiation safety licensing for X-ray operations, and GDPR compliance with a named Data Protection Officer. As of Q1 2026, Terveystalo Oyj — Finland's largest healthcare company — announced a pending acquisition expected to close in Q3/Q4 2026 subject to regulatory approvals.
