    Am looking for recommendations on a good dentist in the Athenry/Oranmore area. Loughrea would be fine too.


    I need to take my son, so preferably someone who is good dealing with kids and not too expensive:)

    Thanks!

    I go to Liz in the dentist in Athenry and find her great. From talking to a few others they find her very good also.

    Thanks for all the advice. I'll look into all of them and see how I go.

    I found out that kids can be seen through the health board. I contacted the Galway dental dept: <MOD SNIP> and am waiting on a follow up.

    We'll see how it turns out.

    By the time they see a health board dentist he'll be fitting them for dentures.

    She took my tooth out yesterday! Despite that, I have found her very nice and pleasant to deal with and actually the extraction was quick and as painless as it could be, don't know what they're like with kids but they do have a small play area in their waiting room and their blurb leaflet says they welcome kids or something along those lines! I would certainly recommend her as a dentist to anyone.
