Asia’s largest dental chain scales up in Maharashtra and Gujarat with tech-led care, hygiene protocols, and patient-first access
Clove Dental, Asia’s largest dental chain with over 600 clinics, is rapidly expanding its footprint in West India. The company has set a strategic goal to reach 100 clinics in Mumbai and 30 in Ahmedabad by the end of 2026, driven by patient demand, ethical care models, and robust hygiene practices.
Founded by Lt. Gen. Dr. Vimal Arora (Retd), Clove Dental has built its reputation around standardized treatment protocols and clinical consistency. Its rapid growth in West India is fueled by a rise in oral health awareness, increasing demand for pediatric and orthodontic services, and the absence of structured dental providers across semi-urban clusters.
Currently operating 34 clinics in Mumbai and 19 in Ahmedabad, Clove added 13 clinics in 2024 and 21 new centers in the first half of 2025 alone. Its network now covers Navi Mumbai, Thane, Kalyan, Dombivli, Panvel, and Pune, making it the largest organized dental player in Maharashtra.
Scaling India’s Dental Infrastructure with Standardized Protocols
Unlike fragmented dental setups, Clove Dental brings a tech-enabled, specialist-led approach to every clinic. All centers follow clinical hygiene SOPs and sterilization standards comparable to global benchmarks. From advanced oral scanners to implant-grade equipment, each center is designed to deliver efficient, multi-specialty services.
According to Amarinder Singh, CEO and Founder, Clove’s expansion is a direct response to patient trust in its standardization. Singh emphasizes that cities like Mumbai and Ahmedabad have lacked affordable, ethical, and internationally benchmarked dental care for decades. Clove’s model bridges this gap with integrity and technology at scale.
Ahmedabad: A City Ready for Preventive and Pediatric Dental Care
Clove’s growth in Gujarat mirrors its Maharashtra success. From just six clinics in early 2024, it now runs 19 clinics in Ahmedabad, including newly launched locations in Ranip, Naroda, and Maninagar. Clove aims to hit 30 clinics in the city by December 2025.
Services such as orthodontics and pediatric dentistry have seen a sharp increase in demand across its Ahmedabad clinics. Strict sterilization, pricing transparency, and the use of dental case documentation tools have built patient confidence in both first-time and returning visitors.
People-First Dental Expansion at National Scale
Clove Dental currently employs more than 1,300 specialist dentists. Its tech stack includes EMR systems, intraoral imaging, patient app engagement, and AI-assisted diagnostics. This technology backbone allows the company to standardize care, reduce diagnostic errors, and personalize treatment at scale.
The company’s focus remains on affordability and preventive care. With India’s dental insurance penetration still under 5 percent, Clove’s fixed-price model offers predictability in a highly variable industry. Its clinics are also popular with corporates, gated societies, and wellness programs for school-age children.
