Ardentis, the Swiss dental clinic group, is celebrating its 25th anniversary!

It was in 1993 in Vevey that the dream of Swiss dentists and founders Jean-Marie Briaux, Stefan Beyer, Dr Mark Bischof and Dr Rabah Nedir finally came true. Their vision was to revolutionise dental medicine by focussing on patient well-being, and by basing their practice on comprehensive and multidisciplinary treatment services. They sought to bring all dental medicine specialities together under one roof and to establish an emergency service 7 days a week, as well as to provide a personal welcome, longer opening hours, and work with state-of-the-art equipment housed within modern, spacious and comfortable dental clinics.

Boasting a 25-year period of stable management, the group is presently managed by co-founders and Swiss dental surgeons Dr Mark Bischof and Dr Rabah Nedir.

In 2018, the Ardentis Dental Clinics Group employed 254 staff, including 199 women, 55 men and an additional 42 apprentices in training. With an average age of 35 and covering more than 25 nationalities, the Ardentis Group now has 12 Dental Clinics in French-speaking Switzerland in the cantons of Vaud, Geneva, Fribourg and Valais, as well as a company of Laboratories with 3 branches (Lausanne, Yverdon and Vevey) and an administrative services company in Lausanne.
