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.

Recently in for a filling with Dr. Maria. Experience was seamless, all staff were kind, caring, efficient and accommodating. Could not fault them. The reception team in particular were so helpful and reassuring.

I recently had an appointment with Linda, my dental hygienist, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. She was professional, friendly, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the cleaning. Linda took the time to explain everything she was doing, answered all my questions, and offered helpful tips for maintaining better oral hygiene. I left feeling confident about my dental care. Highly recommend her!

Amy Costigan

I had severe tooth pain and needed an examination. The staff are amazing, so friendly and extremely helpful. They managed to book me a root canal treatment that very day. I would highly recommend this dental practice to anyone!

I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Jannis Heinrich for his professional assistance in an emergency situation with my son. Dr. Heinrich not only provided prompt and high-quality treatment, but also showed incredible compassion and care, which greatly supported us during a difficult time. It is especially impressive how easily Dr. Heinrich connects with children. My son felt trust, and after having his tooth extracted, he walked out of the office with a smile on his face and now happily visits this dental clinic. Dr. Jannis Heinrich is a true master of his craft and a top-level professional. He treated my cavity quickly and painlessly, improved the aesthetics of my smile, and also successfully placed two crowns in just one day. He treats every patient with care and deep attention. Dr. Heinrich is a prime example of what a progressive, modern dentist should be — someone who truly loves their profession and their work! McEvoy Dental Clinic has a special atmosphere — it’s cozy, calm, and genuinely feels like home. A million thanks to the entire staff of McEvoy Dental Clinic for your warmth and the exceptionally high standards of medical service.

Best dental experience I ever had. I was terrified of going but from the start AnnMarie answered all my questions by email she was so helpful then greeted me with a friendly smile at the front desk. Dr Sammy was amazing he made me feel at ease I wasn’t 20 minutes in the room and had my wisdom tooth extracted. I couldn’t believe I had no pain at all it was unbelievable. I’m now 2 days after and didn’t have to take a painkiller all went so smooth. Thanks again.

Jennifer Mahon

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.

Carina Smiley

Very happy with my treatment at McEvoy Dental. Natalie on reception was very welcoming and helped me through the process. Dr Jannis carried out work expertly and explained everything that was being done.

Joseph Brannigan

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.

What should I know before getting fillings?

Everything you need to know about tooth fillings in Dublin, Kilkenny & Kildare

Dental Fillings

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.

Dental Fillings

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.

Dental Fillings

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 do fillings work?

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.

When might I need a filling?

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

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.
