I just had my first visit to McEvoy Dental. I saw Dr. Ricardo who was extremely friendly and professional. He did a thorough examination and advised me about my next course of treatment. I am usually a bit nervous...

Dr Ronan is one of the best doctors and best person I have met and also the great team at the clinic, everyone is so nice and helpful. I went for an Invisalign treatment and it was done very well with everyone’s support.
I started my smile journey last November with Dr. Hazem and from my first consultant to my final teeth I have to say I am absolutely blown away with the whole experience and results. Totally pain free extractions and I even had a filling done without anaesthetic and never felt a thing. Aftercare was amazing and Dr. Hazem ensured that I was happy with my results.
There are only good points with this surgery. They open on a Saturday, they gave me the best filling I've ever had - no jagged bits, no sensitivity, fits my bite perfectly and they did it so fast, The receptionist is great with people and professional. For immunocompromised people they are great again. They were happy to wear the aura respirators I bought in, donned them properly, I asked if I could bring in an air filter and they're happy with that too. They understood me wanting the 1st appointment on a quiet day and even have given me a long appointment to do the rest of the work I need so I can minimise appointments. Absolutely stellar. If you or a loved one need to be careful I thoroughly recommend them.
Moved to this dental practice after a few recommendations. I had a fantastic experience from the moment I changed to this dental practice. The receptionist was very welcoming and had already obtained my prior Dental records. I have attended a few times now from check ups to consultation for future work. All very professional while maintaining a personable and friendly demeanour. The pricing is very fair and good value for money with the work completed. I would highly recommend.Thanks again to the whole practice. 🦷 😁
Both myself and my son are attending Pearls Dental House in Maynooth for orthodontics treatment. I would highly recommend Dr.Perry as his knowledge and expertise really put me at ease . Our overall experience has been great with excellent communication and customer care . Both myself and my son have new smiles and are really happy with the final results.
Exceptional Invisalign experience! The clinic not only delivered outstanding results but also exceeded my expectations with their exceptional customer service. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to ensure a smooth and comfortable journey. Grateful for their expertise and care—highly recommend!
This is my second appointment with Dr Anne Marie, she is so calm, gentle and professional. Also for the first time ever I am so looking forward for my dentist appointment and is almost the same feeling like I am in the right hairdresser 😆 I know is strange to say this but is truth Thank you Dr Anne Marie
I’m not one to post a lot of reviews, but I had to post a review for Dr Shane Boggs at Kildare Dental Centre. Over the holidays I had phase one of an emergency root canal done at another practice. After that traumatic experience, I googled dentists near me that specialise in nervous patient care and treatment to finish the treatment.After visiting Dr Shane yesterday, I have honestly never felt more at ease in a dental practice. Dr Shane is softly spoken, gentle, informative and incredibly reassuring. He listened to me and continued to reassure me of the situation. I’m willingly back in a few weeks to complete my treatment and begin a new journey for my teeth.As an extremely nervous dental patient who has avoided dentists for years, I couldn’t recommend Dr Shane and the team at KDC more.
I’ve been going here for braces treatment for 2 years. They are excellent and I couldn’t be happier with my results. Gabbie Malloy is my orthodontist and she was fantastic. I definitely recommend going here for your orthodontic treatment.
I had an incredible experience here, Dr. Hazem and the entire team were outstanding from start to finish. I came in with a painful wisdom tooth and was seen quickly with an emergency appointment on a Saturday, which I really appreciated. Dr. Hazeem extracted the tooth the following week with such care and skill, making me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. The aftercare was above and beyond – they even called to check on me afterward, which shows how much they truly care about their patients. I can’t thank them enough for their kindness. Highly recommend to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dentist. 10/10 service!
