Just been to Balbriggan dental and implants for extractions I had 3. OMG. Dr Zaky is so nice for anyone who has a fear of dentists he really puts you at ease. Staff were so pleasant and helpful. I would highly recommend 5 star rating for sure.
Just completed Invisalign treatment and would like to give Gosih a special mention, she was absolutely fantastic, kind and always friendly and most importantly answered all our questions and concerns and always gave us plenty of time to discuss any queries. She was truly fantastic and the one constant we could rely on at every visit. Thanks Gosih
Hi my experience with Friary Court Dental has been life changing for me. From the day I walked in for a consultation with Professor of Implantology Dr Renan Devita and Dental nurse Dara Maher, Dr Devita went through all the procedures in detail. The care and after care was second to none. The compliments that I have got after my implants are amazing. My whole mouth was reconstructed by Dr Devita (I got my smile back). The price was reasonable. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for implants to give Friary Court Dental a call.
I had an excellent experience here at the Artane Dental Clinic from time of booking with Dino in reception to my appt. with Dr Zaid. I was talked through everything and everyone was so lovely. I would recommend highly.
There are no words to describe how amazing and talented the dentist and nurses are at Kildare Dental Centre. I cant thank you all enough for helping me get the perfect smile. You have given me the gift to smile on my wedding day which is priceless. Dr Gwyer your amazing 🤩
I had the best experience in Pearls. I had 6 months of invisalign and Dr Ronan, Gabbie and all of the team couldn't have been more helpful and lovely. Delighted with my results and would highly recommend their practice!
This is an excellent dentist practice. Shane is a really lovely dentist and he makes me feel so comfortable every time I go to have my teeth checked. He gives great advice about keeping my teeth looking good! All of the staff are so kind. I would highly recommend Kildare Dental Centre to anybody.
I had an excellent experience at McEvoy Dental Clinic for a recent filling. From the moment I walked in, the staff were welcoming and professional. The dentist explained the procedure clearly, made sure I was comfortable throughout, and the work was done quickly and painlessly. The filling looks and feels completely natural. The clinic is modern, spotless, and runs on time, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend McEvoy Dental Clinic for anyone needing dental work done with care and precision!
Excellent experience, I highly recommend. I went in to fix a really nasty fracture on my upper left front tooth. It wasn't the first time that has happened to me because my bite is a little wonky and it makes my teeth brittle. I was really embarrassed of my appearance, but I was greeted with a lovely smile and everyone at the clinic was so kind. I felt at ease. Dr. Renan especially as he explained all my options to me so I could make the most informed decision. He even went out of his way to fix my bite to prevent the tooth from fracturing again. The tooth looks beautiful now and I feel confident again. 10/10
Amazing service. Have been having awful issues with a back bottom wisdom tooth for quite some time and was referred to oral surgeons by previous dental practitioners. As you can imagine prices quoted to remove via surgery were always ridiculous. Attended Pearl dental in Maynooth and after a thorough examination from Nicole, she was able to remove this tooth herself no problem without having to be referred and I have been pain free for weeks now. She is so efficient at her job. Would highly recommend. Great service, friendly staff and they get the job done.
Everything you need to know about tooth fillings in Dublin, Kilkenny & Kildare
What are fillings?
Fillings repair cavities caused by tooth decay. The decayed part of the tooth is gently removed, and the space is filled with composite material made from a mixture of glass and plastic. This restores strength and prevents further decay, while keeping your tooth looking natural.
Why choose white fillings?
Until recently, most fillings were made from silver amalgam. While effective, they were highly visible. White fillings are stronger than ever and offer a discreet alternative that blends in with your tooth. They are mercury-free and bond securely to your tooth for lasting protection.
How do we make fillings blend naturally?
We carefully select the shade of the composite material to match your existing teeth, layering it for the most natural look possible. The result is a filling that’s almost invisible, even up close, and restores both the health and appearance of your tooth.

How we restore your tooth step by step
White fillings are applied in layers, with each layer hardened using a special light. This technique allows the filling to bond directly to the tooth, creating a strong and natural-looking result. Unlike metal fillings, composites support the remaining tooth structure and can be shaped for a perfect fit.
Common signs that decay could be present
- Toothache - A constant or sharp pain may mean decay has reached the inner tooth.
- Sensitivity - Pain when eating or drinking hot, cold, or sweet foods can signal enamel loss.
- Visible cavities - Dark spots, holes, or chips may indicate decay that needs treatment.
- Bad breath - Persistent odour can be linked to untreated tooth decay or infection.

questions answered
Do fillings still have to be silver?
Until recently, most cavities were filled with the well-known silver filling amalgams. Nowadays, white fillings have become much more durable, making them the go-to choice for resolving cavity problems in the tooth. Fillings can now look good… and invisible.
Are white fillings better for my teeth?
Today, as before, fillings can prevent cavities from progressing. Only now they are almost invisible. They blend in well with the tooth, making them near invisible. White fillings don’t have mercury in them. While it isn’t an issue, some Dentistry.ie clients take comfort in this fact.
White fillings are usually made from a mixture of plastic and glass particles, giving them a more similar structure to a real tooth over a traditional metal filling. This means you’re replacing tooth material with a realistic alternative, leading to a generally healthier tooth.
What if I feel embarrassed about decay?
One reason that often stops people from visiting the dentist is the obvious sign of decay. People may not want their dentist to know that they aren’t flossing every day or even brushing twice a day. If this is you, fear not. It is hard to avoid decay, but now, if your teeth have cavities or are showing signs of decay, the white fillings make an ideal solution.
