Upon completion of the acquisition, the group plans to upgrade and explore the possibility of opening additional dental clinics when market permits.

The Group foresees the growth in the dental industry will mainly be driven by a growing and aging population that increases demand for dental services. Other factors driving growth within the industry will come from the higher demands for cosmetic dentistry due to rising disposable income (which in turn spur higher spending on dental aesthetics) among consumers, as well as the expansion in the dental tourism industry in tandem with the growing healthcare travel industry.
