Every patient has different dental care needs. In order to provide a proper diagnosis of your condition, we would need to complete a thorough examination including any necessary x-rays.

Your treatment costs will depend on the condition of your teeth and gums, the treatment recommended and the options you choose.

The following are indicative private fees for some of the more common treatments.

You should consult one of our dentists for a personalised estimate.

Written estimates will be provided.

Terms & Conditions

Payment Terms

We ask that payments are made for each appointment as they are completed. We accept cash, debit cards and credit cards. A receipt is always issued at the end of each treatment session. We will require a prepayment for some treatment items and this will be explained if it applies to your treatment plan.

Appointment amendment system

We strive to provide excellent dental care to our patients. As part of providing this service and to be fair to all our patients, we have an Appointment Amendment System in the Practice. When an appointment is scheduled this time has been set aside for you and when it is missed or not cancelled with enough notice, this time cannot always be used to treat another patient. For this reason, our system is as follows:

Should you need to amend or move an appointment you have made with us, we request 48 hours’ notice for the this please. This will enable us to offer your appointment slot to one of our other patients. Failure to give us this required notice may result in a prepayment being taken before rebooking.

For patients that fail to attend any of their appointments, a fee will be required before further appointments can be scheduled. We routinely take prepayments for longer treatment appointments on booking. This prepayment will be used as a credit towards future treatment as long as the appointment is attended. Should you have any questions regarding our cancellation system please call us on (051) 421453 or email us on quirkedental@gmail.com.

Cancellations

We require at least 48 hours notice if you have to cancel your appointment. This gives us the opportunity to offer the appointment to someone else who may urgently need it.

Regrettably, patients who fail to attend their appointments or cancel without adequate notice will be obliged to pay a ‘failure to attend’ fee. This must be settled prior to a new appointment being arranged otherwise no further appointments can be made. Patients who repeatedly fail to attend or cancel with inadequate notice periods will not be entitled to arrange further appointments at our Practice.

Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection Fees

We accept patients under the PPS (PRSI) scheme – this entitles qualified persons to one dental health check per year and a contribution towards hygiene treatments. Please provide us with your PPS number in advance of your appointment as we are required to check your entitlements with the Department of Employment Affairs and  Social Protection in advance of treatment. This is a Department requirement in order to be able to access treatment under this scheme. This cannot be applied retrospectively.

Medical Cards.

We no longer provide Medical Card treatments. Patents seeking treatment under the Medical Card scheme should contact the HSE for a list of dentists who may be accepting patients for treatment.

Tax Relief

A number of non routine dental treatments such as crowns, bridgework, orthodontics, treatment of gum disease and endodontics [root canal treatment] qualify for tax relief. This means you can offset the full cost of the treatment against your income tax liability. This is done by filling in a MED2 form which we can provide.
