About Colosseum Dental

Colosseum Dental UK is a leading dental provider in the UK, with over 80 dental clinics offering both NHS and private care, including cosmetic treatments, orthodontics, and implants.

We stand out from other dental groups for three reasons:

• We are 100% owned by a charity, not a private equity fund or a financial investor. Our profits are used to invest in high-quality education and development opportunities for children through a charitable organisation called ‘The Jacobs Foundation’.
• We are part of Colosseum Dental Group, the leading pan-European dental company with clinics spanning 11 countries.
• Our relative smallness. We are small enough to ensure our practices are run with efficiency and autonomy at a local level while providing personalised support to individuals and practices from our head office. At the same time, we are big enough to offer tremendous career development opportunities, world‑class training and highly professional processes and procedures.

In other words, we provide the most compelling overall package for clinicians, nurses, practice managers and receptionists. In addition to that, we run top‑not…

We have an experienced leadership team with caring values for our people, our patients, and our local communities. Being medically led and maintaining the highest clinical standards to provide exceptional patient care is at the heart of everything we do, and last but not least, we are proud to be an officially certified “Great Place to Work” for the last 5 consecutive years.
