# First-time buyers purchase NHS practice in Broxburn

![Dental article 3 image-2](https://dentist-times.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Dental%20article%203%20image-2.jpg?width=650&height=485&name=Dental%20article%203%20image-2.jpg)

Broxburn Dental Practice in Broxburn, West Lothian, has been sold to two sisters in what is their first acquisition in the sector.

Established in 1996, [Broxburn Dental Practice](https://broxburndentalpractice.co.uk/) is a three-surgery, predominantly-NHS practice with a growing database of over 10,400 registered patients.

Following a confidential sales process with Joel Mannix at Christie & Co, and with funding sourced through Stephen McConalogue at [Christie Finance](https://www.christiefinance.com/), the practice has been sold to sisters, Maria Guillermina Landivar Taborga and Vivian Carolina Landivar Taborga.

Maria said: “Carolina and I both grew up, studied, and graduated as dentists in Madrid over 20 years ago. Since then, we have worked as General Dental Practitioners (GDPs) in Madrid and various cities in the UK.

“We settled and had our families in Edinburgh, where we also pursued several postgraduate studies over the years.

“We decided to purchase a practice together, feeling it was a natural step in our personal and professional growth.

“We found Broxburn Dental Practice to be precisely suited to our needs and envisioned it as a good starting point for the practice we wanted to build.

“Our goal is to help Broxburn Dental Practice grow to its full potential over the coming years, offering a wider range of high-quality services to our diverse patient base.”

Mannix added: “We were in discussion with the previous owner for a couple of years about his retirement plans and are thrilled to have secured a deal with a great pair of first-time buyers.

“This is reflective of the current Scottish dental market, where independent operators and first-time buyers are dominating the dental market.”

Broxburn Dental Practice was sold for an undisclosed price.
