I genuinely cannot recommend him highly enough

5 50 Braces

We were referred to Dr. Peter Keane in 2023 by our dentist for my son Gabriel’s orthodontic treatment. I genuinely cannot recommend him highly enough.

Gabriel is autistic, moderately autistic, and although he is verbal, he does not engage in a lot of conversation or small talk and tends to stay very much in his own world. Because of that, finding the right orthodontist was incredibly important to us. From the very beginning, Dr. Keane was absolutely fantastic with Gabriel. He understood how to work with him, treated him with patience and respect, and made what could have been a very overwhelming experience feel safe and manageable.

Dr. Keane is an extremely professional orthodontist and exceptionally good at what he does. He is strict, which I personally found absolutely brilliant, because it showed how seriously he takes his work and how committed he is to getting the best possible results for his patients. He is thorough, clear, knowledgeable, and has very high standards, exactly what you want from someone looking after your child’s orthodontic care.

Gabriel’s treatment started with jaw correction for a few months, and after that Dr. Keane fitted his top braces and then the bottom braces. Today, 2nd July, was a very big day for us because Gabriel had his braces removed, and we are absolutely delighted with the result. The whole journey has been worth every cent. We will now continue with regular check-ups, and I feel very confident knowing Gabriel is still under Dr. Keane’s care.

I also want to mention how excellent the payment options are, because that makes such a difference for families. You can pay in one go, split it into two larger payments, or pay monthly, which is a fantastic option and makes treatment much more manageable and accessible. On top of that, there is a family discount if you have a second child or another family member having treatment, which was absolutely brilliant for us. There is also a discount if you pay in one go, which I thought was another fantastic option.

A few months ago, our second son Oliver also started his own orthodontic journey with Dr. Keane and is currently going through jaw correction with him. So far, everything has been going very well, which gives us even more confidence in recommending Dr. Keane and his care.

I also want to give a big shout-out to the amazing reception team in the Galway clinic and to the whole team who looked after Gabriel throughout his treatment. Every single person was kind, welcoming, professional, and so helpful. It really makes a difference when the whole team is warm, understanding, and supportive.

Another thing we really appreciated was how easy it was to get appointments and, when needed, reschedule them. They genuinely work with your schedule and always try to find the best option that suits everyone, which is such a huge help for busy families.

This was honestly some of the best money we have ever spent. Dr. Keane is a truly outstanding orthodontist, highly professional, skilled, firm in the best possible way, and wonderful with children who may need a little extra understanding, patience, and reassurance. We are so grateful for the care Gabriel received, and we are very happy that Oliver is now also under his care. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Peter Keane to anyone looking for an orthodontist in Galway.

I'd had train tracks in the past with another provider but was left disappointed

5 50 Orthodontist Consultation • Paid: €4000

Dr Peter Keenan is an absolute perfectionist, and I am absolutely thrilled that I took the plunge in my 40's and got my teeth straightened. I'd had train tracks in the past with another provider, but was left disappointed. This time, I am just over the moon, thanks to Peter & his wonderful team.

Every appointment was so straightforward and the time flew by

5 50 Invisalign™

For somebody whose biggest insecurity was their smile, I never thought I’d be able to face getting braces without feeling judged about my teeth.

The first day I went in for a consultation with Dr Keenan, it felt like a weight lifted off my shoulders when a plan was put in place to finally get a smile I didn’t want to hide anymore.

I had my Invisalign on for over 2 years and can honestly say it was the best investment I made in my life. Every appointment was so straightforward and the time flew by.

Thank you Dr Keenan and all staff in the Castlebar practice for a journey that was so well worth it.

Couldn't be happier with my smile now it’s perfect

5 50 Braces

Had my braces on for just over 2 and a half years! Couldn't be happier with my smile now it’s perfect! My treatment was always very efficient and they worked around my schedule as I was abroad for part of my treatment. They always made time to see me if needed and even during the pandemic they were very efficient and professional. They always followed up on any enquiries and were very accessible to me as a client. I chose this clinic because it was recommended by most people I know because of the results they all got from their treatments. The price was very good in comparison to some other places I had priced, and they told me exactly what to expect from the first day, and there were no hidden elements. They were also very flexible with my personal payment schedule. Would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants the perfect results.

I'm delighted I'll be able to smile at last

5 50 Adult Braces

Choosing to get my teeth straightened at Peter Keenan Orthodontics was the best decision I ever made! I was always so self-conscious of my teeth so I'm delighted I'll be able to smile at last! The time between getting the braces on and having my beautiful teeth today has flown. It was so worth the money. I loved that the orthodontist was located right in the centre of town. I trusted Peter and his team every step of the way and I'm so glad I did! Thanks so much Peter and his team especially Trish who always made me smile on my visits!
