An increasing number of our patients travel from various parts of the Republic of Ireland to our practice at Belmore Dental Studio. There are numerous reasons for patients travelling to Enniskillen in particular, the high quality of dental care provided including the experienced dental team, the proximity to Enniskillen town centre and the fact the practice is a five minute walk from the bus station which links directly from Dublin Central.
In addition, there can be a major cost saving due to the strength of the Euro so it makes perfect sense to combine a day trip away with your regular dental appointment. There have been many high profile articles on ‘Dental Tourism’ with many patients travelling from the south of Ireland to the North and a recent piece in the Belfast Telegraph stated the follow:
” Costs of standard procedures including extractions and fillings remain similar – between £45 and £60. The greater difference is noted in more intricate work such as crowns, root canals or bridge work. In a snap website survey by the Belfast Telegraph, one dentist in Cookstown’s charges started at £100 for root canal work. This compared to a dentist in Galway charging between £287-£657 (Belmore Dental Studio & Implant Clinic prices start from £120) for the same procedure. A bridge unit was priced by one practice at £295 in Armagh. One Dublin dentist was charging between €750-€850 (£615-£697) for the same procedure (Belmore Dental Studio & Implant Clinic prices start from £350).”
