Why choose a specialist orthodontist?

To be recognised as an orthodontic specialist by the Irish Dental Council, it is necessary to firstly qualify as a general dentist by completing at least 5 years of dental undergraduate training. Then, a further 3 years, full time, post graduate training in orthodontics is necessary to qualify as an orthodontic specialist. A specialist orthodontist is best positioned and best educated to analyse & determine the causes of your orthodontic problems and the most effective treatment plans.

​HYGIENE VISITS - Dental Hygiene

​Young or old, a great smile starts with the basics…..clean, healthy teeth. Our hygienist Isobell, is a specially trained member of the dental team and is your first line of defense against dental diseases. She will professionally scale and polish your teeth, check the health of your gums, show you the best way to keep your teeth plaque free at home and give you smoking cessation and dietary advice. All of the treatments that Isobell provides will make your gums healthier and therefore look and feel much cleaner. Hygiene visits go hand in hand with orthodontic treatment, resulting in the smile you’ve always wanted.

John is a registered member of national and international orthodontic societies. To become a member of these orthodontic focus groups one must be a fully trained orthodontic practitioner, a registered specialist with the expertise and experience needed to ensure that you receive the best treatment, results and value for money. John attends continuous education to ensure that the most up to date knowledge and treatments are made available to our patients. Please click the links at the top the page to find out more.
