I had an exceptionally positive experience with Glasnevin Orthodontics and couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Declan, Sheila, Sharon and the entire team offer an outstanding level of service and are true experts in their field.

For anyone (of any age) that is considering getting braces or other orthodontic work, I would recommend calling Glasnevin Orthodontics.

The clinic is also very accessible with excellent public transport and nearby parking.

Declan is fantastic. I went to him many years ago now but I will say the only thing I was ever unhappy with was that when I was having my braces removed, he shaved down the bumps on my teeth without asking me first. I had no idea what he was doing until after he did it and to this day I still miss them. I really liked the way my teeth looked with them and obviously they won’t grow back!

This has been my one and only complaint with Declan after his many years of amazing service and his extremely helpful team.

Cannot recommend Glasnevin Orthodontics enough. Got braces as an adult and I felt looked after from beginning to end (from Sheelagh in reception, to the nurses and of course Declan who is patient, knowledgeable and listened to me the whole way). Absolutely delighted with the results after 2.5 years of treatment. Happy now I have somewhere I can trust to bring my kids in the future. Zero hidden extras and nothing but care.

Couldn’t recommend Declan and his team enough. Such lovely staff and Declan the orthodontist is amazing. He gave me the most amazing smile and couldn’t be happier with my teeth 😍

Very general advice on the first visit (including straight away talking about available payment plan!), I expected much more insight from a specialist. Not ideal location if you need parking as well.

Absolutely fantastic 5 star service. These guys are amazing at what they do. I cant recommend these guys enough. Declan is so welcoming, professional and brilliant at what he does. From the time I walked into his practice I felt so welcome. I just got my braces off this morning. I love love love the result. For 3 years i attended this practice with not one complaint. Pain free process so efficient and such a perfectionist. Massive shout out to all of the dental nurses who are so friendly and helpful.
The receptionist Shiela is such a people person. She is just a legend. She is a natural at dealing with people, remembers every persons name and its never any bother to cancel or change your appointment. During this pandemic every precaution was taken to keep all staff and patients safe. I am literally raving about this company. I have never received customer like it. Thanks so much guys.

I spent just over 5 years with Declan and team. Declan is above all else an efficient and professional orthodontist with many years experience which shows with his expert care. Declan and team made it easy from start to finish. If anyone is considering getting braces, there is no better orthodontist.

I recently just had my braces removed after three years. Glasnevin Orthodontics provided a first class service through out my time with them. Very reasonable prices and were very flexible with my payments. I would thoroughly recommend them.
