We are based in Leixlip, 25 minutes from the centre of Dublin, with guaranteed parking behind the Spar supermarket 50 meters from our front door with the opportunity to buy a parking permit for 30 cents which covers you for one hour's parking. Access to Leixlip is also very easy with regular bus and train services.

Our team consists of  General Dentists : Dr John Weever, Dr Jennifer Dunne, Dr Andreas Clemens ( Oral surgeon) and Dr George Takla ( Orthodontist). Supporting staff include our Dental nurses Sonje Erasmus and Carol King who are always happy to deal with any queries you may have.

We offer our patients services in the following dental areas; General dentistry including bleaching , Implantology, Orthodontics, Endodontics, Prosthodontics (ie. Crown and bridge ) ,Oral Surgery with Oral Sedation,Implantology ,and an Occlusion ( Grinding / clenching disease) Clinic.

Our aim is to diagnose dental diseases and show the patient how we can work together in its management. We are not just interested in filling the cavity but finding out why the cavity occurred in the first place, so we like to show , explain and educate our patients in the identification and management of their disease processes so that they can participate fully in looking after their own dental health.

The first examination is a critical meeting where the patient's complaint is carefully noted and managed as a priority. Then we examine the tissues for the common dental diseases and check that there are no sinister diseases present .

The examination extraorally consists of evaluating the external structures for example, the jaw joints right and left for noise / clicking,  enlarged bulky / tender chewing muscles and palpation/ feeling for the cervical/neck and jaw glands for enlargement or tenderness which might indicate active disease processes in situ.

Then we progress intra-orally to look at the jaws range and smoothness of movement and the soft tissues for colour (eg redness with swelling / bleeding would indicate early gum disease / gingivitis ) and hard tissues for evidence of caries / tooth decay or wear from excessive grinding  or erosion etc

Then after a dignosis is made of any disease processes that are present , a written  treatment plan is outlined with options, costings , pros and cons , success rates , etc and this plan can be posted or  emailed to the patient for their further consideration. Appointments can then be scheduled to match their employment ,social  and financial needs / objectives in this challanging economy.

Our principal goal for you is to have a healthy, aesthetically pleasing, functioning, painfree and disease free dentition without any discomfort while eating , chewing, talking or smiling etc

Then after your course of Dental treatment has been completed and the objective of dental fitness has been achieved ,we want to help you the patient  return on a six-monthly basis for your regular check up and cleaning appointments.This can be achieved by providing you with a dental maintenance plan payable by a monthly direct  debit .

The plan is designed to keep you dentally fit  with two free examination and hygiene visits per year , all necessary intra-oral x-rays free if required and 20% off the standard fee for any dental work identified  that needs to be completed.

World wide supplementary insurance covering emergency dental care whether home or abroad is also covered free of charge as part of this program.

Our mission professionally is to get you DENTALLY FIT and to KEEP YOU THAT WAY with minimum cost to you financially .

We hope you can join us in achieving your Oral health goals in a true Dental partnership at the Leixlip Dental Centre.
