Dare to Smile Dental

My self and my wife live in Ireland... we had dental implants and dental root canal treatment @ the highest standards in the past few years... the only thing I regret is being 'lazy' and late in writing about Smile and Teeth Dental Clinic.

Very friendly staff and accommodating service... top of the range I should say.

Had a full upper bridge done and a small lower one. The entire process was pain-free. Just a little sensitive during filing down on one or 2 teeth. The bridge was a snug fit which felt odd when it was removed after the test fit, felt like my entire teeth were coming out but, only the feeling...no pain as such.

The only negative I'd say is, I wasn't given the chance to choose what colour of teeth, the dentist chose for me. Also, I was expecting a straight look but, the dentist decided to use the existing look of the teeth. I mean, it's ok.. they appear more natural that way.
Also, the free check-up a year later turned out to be cost as cleaning was forced on me without my consent. But... Ok. It is not expensive.

Overall I am very happy.
The clinic is clean and the staff are friendly, it's been over a year now and I've had no problems at all.

Recommend.

I chose, after careful research and from many angles, to have my dental work done at Dare to Smile. I needed 5-6 implants of molars, a new tooth cap, and an extraction. I chose the direct implant because I live in the USA, where this treatment would not have been within my budget. I considered many clinics, in several countries, but was certain that they offered what I was looking for: expertise, excellent training, and reputation, a choice of treatments. What Dare to Smile offered is what I was looking for. Since our visit last month, November 2017, I have told many friends and their friends about this option and clinic and will continue to do so!

I chose this clinic because of the choices I had and processes used for my implants. Viktor, with whom I had been corresponding for some time, made me feel relaxed and welcome (I still have a childhood fear of dentists...who doesn't?) and actually anticipate the treatment with a very positive attitude. The staff is really very kind and professional. Dr. Laszlo was very precise, explained in detail and for once, I felt like I was in charge of my own choices and the options were so clearly presented that I was very comfortable! Everything turned out beautifully. Highly recommended. And Budapest is absolutely beautiful!

I hope this review helps someone who is really afraid of dentists like me due to experiencing dental trauma as a child. It took me a very long time to finally go and see dentist, which resulted in me losing six teeth on my upper jaw (three teeth on each side), and one tooth on the lower one. This surgery was done two years ago in the UK under general anaesthesia due to my dental phobia. It was a nerve-wracking day, but knew it has to be done as I was suffering with lots of dental pain by then. Good news is I don't remember anything from the surgery and felt fine after physically and mentally. Finally got rid of those rotten teeth and the pain. My only dilemma was what to do about the gaps on my upper jaw as they were showing whilst me talking or laughing, and I became very conscientious of it. I decided to contact and visited numerous clinics in the UK for implant treatment, and all of them quoted me over £10,000 I couldn't really afford. In the end, I started to search on the Internet for dental clinics abroad. I heard and read about Budapest as one of the best places to go for implant treatments. I managed to find a dental clinic in Budapest doing implants and travel over there two weeks ago. All I could say is clinic was good and friendly but sadly they didn't do treatments under general anaesthesia. Basically, it wasn't right for me. Back in the hotel room, I started to search for dental clinics doing treatments under general. I contacted many of them, but nearly all said they only do local anaesthesia. Around lunch time I found Dare To Smile clinic, and by 3pm I received a phone call from Viktor (Patient Support officer) who arranged me to see Dr. Laszlo Koronczay straight away. As I walked in, I shake the doctor's hand, telling him promptly I am very nervous patient, and there is no other way to treat me than under general anaesthesia. He just smiled and put me straight at ease, replying, "I have plenty of experience with patients like you. Don't worry, we will help you", and right next to him stood the very caring nurses, Maria and Charlotte, also trying to reassure me. On the same day, I was examined, X-rayed, and an imprint of my both jaws was done. I was also told I don't need any bone graft and all I need is four implants on my upper jaw, one crown, and a few fillings, and I will have a new smile within five days; also, no need to worry about my wisdom tooth which was causing me pain for a while. They could all sort it out for me under general anaesthesia, and the price tag for all of it just under £5000. I couldn't believe my luck. This clinic could load me with new teeth nearly straight away! No bone graft required! And it's not as expensive as other places and staff is so professional, caring, and friendly. Anyway, next day I was taken by Miki and lovely nurse, Maria, for a CT scan, blood test, heart monitoring, etc. to make sure I was suitable for surgery, which I luckily was, and surgery was set for a few days' time. I turned up fifteen minutes before treatment a bit nervous, but as soon as I entered Dare To Smile clinic and seeing welcoming, friendly, and very caring people around me, I knew it's going to be all right. True, as I don't remember anything from the surgery at all. When I woke up, I expected to be in lots of pain; surprisingly, I wasn't. Only felt a slight pain on the side where my wisdom tooth was taken out, but when it comes to implants, I felt no pain at all. Came for check-up two days after surgery. Dr. Laszlo said surgery went very well and he is satisfied with the result. So was I and still am. Then he loaded temporary crowns which are going to be replaced with permanents in six months' time. All I could say is I can't believe how I let this fantastic doctor Laszlo putting this crowns inside my mouth without putting me to sleep. He totally gained my trust in such a short time and really changed my life with his friendly, kind, not forgetting, very professional approach, managing to change my attitude toward dentists. I will have to report how I am doing in two weeks' time, and look forward to my next visit in March.

This clinic changed my life. Very professional and friendly staff. Treatments are much cheaper than in the UK, and you can get a new smile in five days as they promise. I would recommend it to anyone who suffers or doesn't suffer with dental phobia.

Because of my bad teeth, I needed a full restoration with crowns on the bottom and Implants on top. Also, I had two broken roots and needed some teeth to come out. Would advise all my friends to contact Dare to Smile. The value was very good.

I contacted some clinics after a visit to my dentist. Dare to Smile came back to me with a good treatment plan and prices. On my first visit, I was very impressed by the friendly staff, state of the art equipment, and the cleanliness of the clinic. I had the full restoration three weeks ago. My bottom teeth are perfect. The top teeth on the implants are temporary and will be replaced after one year. They are also perfect. In just five days, I had all the work done. I can eat and taste anything I like again and have no pain. I will have a check-up in two months, and for the first time in my life, I look forward to a visit to the dentist. Thanks to the Dare to Smile team.

I needed implants and dentures. They explained to me every option I could have and the benefits and disadvantages of all options. All the work was done within 5 days as they had said. They did a really good job. I like my new smile. I can only recommend them to everyone.

I chose them because they were not trying to convince me to have the most expensive treatment they could offer but the one I really needed. They helped me basically with everything, to organise my trip and offered hotel to stay at during my treatment. The hotel is just a couple of yards away from the clinic. It was really convenient. The staff members were friendly and helpful. I felt they were caring about my needs and considered my wishes.
