ABOUT THE PRACTICE

South Dublin Dental

South Dublin Dental is a dental practice located just off the N11 in Booterstown with ample parking directly outside. We specialise in treating toothache (root canal treatment / Endodontics) and the replacement of missing teeth or those with a poor prognosis (dental implants). We also provide general dental services and a full dental hygiene service. The practice is fully digital and accepts PRSI and private patients. We are open from 8am every morning during the week. 

The practice was founded in 2012 by husband and wife team Alec & Hannah Granville. The practice was originally located in Foxrock from 2012-2022. We moved location to Booterstown in July 2022 to a brand new state of the art premises with four surgeries as the practice had outgrown its previous location.

The practice prides itself in the use of modern technology and techniques to provide the best dental care possible. We have an onsite CT scanner, an intra oral scanner which avoids the need to take moulds and a Endodontic microscope to provide the most accurate and comprehensive root canal treatment.

We are a fully digital dental practice and we hope to be able to pass on the benefits of being a digital practice to you. Radiographs will be faster and of a lower radiation dose, our intra-oral digital camera will show you what our Dentist can see inside your mouth, and reminders are sent via email and text.

Our competitive prices are updated on a regular basis. Situated just off the N11 in Booterstown, give us a call to find out if you can be seen today!
