Hi Claire. Thanks for the lovely review.
Fantastic experience: A great clinic and team! This was my first experience at a dental clinic in Ireland and it was a total success thanks to Dr. Brian and Lynn. I called for an emergency and they scheduled me in less than 24 hours. Dr. Brian and Lynn were extremely professional, helpful and kind. I was extremely scared and nervous, but Dr. Brian made me feel completely at ease. Thank you for all the help, I will definitely come back every time I need it. I highly recommend Rathmines Dental. :)

Thanks Caolan we really appreciate the great review. See you at your next check up.
Fantastic experience: Just had a wonderful experience with Dr Eniff and Clara at the clinic. It's been many years since I've visited a dentist chair so naturally I was a bit apprehensive. Dr Eniff and Clara were brilliant start to finish, very professional and welcoming. The care and advice I received was top notch, pretty much pain free for my checkup and clean. The practice was also a really nice space to be in, didn't feel too clinical all while being spotless. Thanks to the team at Rathmines Dental, visiting the dentist doesn't feel like a chore anymore!
Wow Conor. Very much appreciated thanks. We are very happy that you are happy!
Fantastic experience: I am a long-time patient of Rathmines Dental. Brian and Lynne treat me with such respect and kindness on every visit and always have a big smile on their faces!!
Thanks Siofra. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: I've been attending Rathmines Dental for about 15 years now and could not speak highly enough of Brian, Lynne and the team for the dental care they provide. Brian (dentist) and Lynne (hygienist) are excellent at what they do and highly attentive. They always put you at ease, they're exceptionally friendly and always up for a laugh which is great. I would highly recommend!
Thanks Ben. The review is very much appreciated. It's always a pleasure to look after you.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Rathmines Dental for a number of years now and couldn’t recommend Brian and Lynne enough. Brian is very thorough and made me feel completely at ease no matter the treatment I’m in for. Lynne is a great hygienist and always takes great care cleaning my teeth, even with braces, and providing great tips and advice.
Thanks Lorna, it is always a pleasure to look after you.
Fantastic experience: Brian and Lynne are always kind, caring and professional. Could not recommend high enough. Always a pleasure attend their surgery. Definitely deserve 5 stars!
Thanks Bernie
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Brian and Lynne for a long number of years (I think 20 years now). Brian is the best dentist I’ve used. He is thorough and makes me feel at ease. Lynne is a brilliant hygienist. She’s on the ball and gives really good advice. All the staff are always professional and polite. I highly recommend Rathmines Dental to anyone.
Thanks Sheila, wow the years go quickly!!
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of Rathmines Dental for 21 years and in that time have found them to be simply excellent. I have always been treated with great expertise and in a highly caring and professional manner. I have the utmost trust in Brian, Lynn and their fabulous practice and highly recommend.
Thanks Suzanne, much appreciated.
Negative experience: I maybe the odd one but I had a horrible experience at Rathmines Dental and am suffering through the consequences now. I went there for a pain in my first molar and had an appointment with Lynne McEniff. Now I may have caught her on a bad day or whatever but she was rude about my dental hygiene and her whole handling was pretty rough. Now I know dentist see very anxious patients and I am on of them. She literally give out to me because I told her one of the thing she was using really hurt the roof of my mouth which ended up getting bruised badly anyway. She did the filling in 1 molar and asked me to come back again for other fillings which I obviously didn’t. But the fact she did such bad filling that there was a massive gap in it after not even a month due to which food will get stuck. I had to go to other dentist to get it fixed and I literally came back happy. The doctor understood that i am anxious talked to me calmed me down now and not literate yanked down things my throat like animals. Will literally never visit there again.
YOU HAVE THE WRONG DENTAL PRACTICE Hi Kshitij. It's Brian McEniff the dentist from Rathmines Dental here. I think you have left this review for the wrong practice. My wife Lynne is our hygienist here (not a dentist) she does not do fillings. Also we have no record or memory of seeing you. I feel you have seen a female dentist in Rathmines in a different practice. Please double check where you went, there is another practice with a very similar name to us that is often confused with us. Most importantly we would never treat someone the way you have been treated. Our phone number is 014976543 and we are in an old Georgian house on the main Rathmines Road opposite the Swan centre. Like I said please double check where you went, we don't want someone else's bad review.
Negative experience: My children have attended here over the years . This morning my son needed to see Brian urgently . His secretary or co worker - refused to see us - over a missed appointment in November! This app, I told her that Brian told me he was not a specialist in this area .So we did not attend on the date ! I’ve been spoken to like a bold child this morning . I’ve never experienced such rudeness .. and my poor son left with no regard or care !This dentist practice is a money racket ! It’s taken me a while to realise ! Always looking for x rays … ( extra cost ) Pushing cleaning (extra ) Fillings are huggee money compared to other great dentists ! All the best Lynn - €100 u wanted today before seeing us has cost u way more in the long run !
Hi Erica, We are sorry that you are unhappy. Unfortunately, I cannot be specific with my reply due to patient confidentiality. We rarely charge for missed appointments – we only do so if someone is very unreliable and misses a lot of appointments. I feel I should address your points: 1 X-rays are vital to diagnose most dental problems. 2 Cleanings are essential to maintaining oral health. 3 Our fillings are €130 each, this is probably at the cheaper end of the price ranges in the area. We wish you the best in the future.
Positive experience: As I'm not a fan of dentist s in general, it went fairly well. I was made feel comfortable and not much pain the only thing I would say is when you book in for a certain procedure and then extra stuff is added make sure you have extra money
Hi Noel. I think you have the wrong practice. We have no record of you. The photo is not of this practice, we use different instrument trays and our floor is white. Regards Brian McEniff
Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Rathmines Dental more- I'm a nervous patient after having multiple bad experiences with other dentists, but Brian & Lynn have been the most accomodating, friendly, and warm people. So lovely to deal with, and really great dental service too. Thank you so much guys, you've singlehandedly stopped me from fearing the dentist!
Thanks very much Avril. It is a pleasure to look after you and show you that modern dentistry is nothing to be fearful about.
Fantastic experience: I could not recommend Rathmines Dental highly enough! Brian, Lynne & Amy were an absolute pleasure. Everything about the experience was positive and I'm delighted to have found my new dentist! Thanks team.
Thanks Stephen, glad to have you. :)
Fantastic experience: I am going to Dental Rathmines since 2005 even if I have move out from Rathmines years ago and now live in North Dublin. Brian and his team are wonderful people, very professional and friendly. They take good care of you and help you to make you feel relaxed. Brian always clearly explains in advance what he will do. I highly recommend Dental Rathmines to everyone :)
Merci beaucoup Celine. It has been a pleasure to look after you over the years. :)
Fantastic experience: Absolutely excellent dental surgery. The whole team; Brian, Lynne and Amy make it a very pleasant experience. I attended this dental clinic for the first time with some work and repairs needed to be done on my teeth. I found Brian really personable and he explained everything he was doing so I understood what was happening in each appointment, which made me feel at ease. Highly recommend and look forward to my next visit!

Fantastic experience: Top marks to Lynne! I have honestly never met someone so dedicated to getting my teeth cleaned. She even made me enthusiastic about it! I'd highly recommend.
Thanks Laura, always a pleasure! Lynne
Fantastic experience: Having not gone to the dentists in years, Brian and Amy in Rathmines dental were friendly, non judgemental and helped me get everything back on track. Going to the dentist may never be fun but I’d highly recommend these people for making it as comfortable as possible
Thanks for that Mark. Much appreciated. Only saw review now!!
Fantastic experience: I've been coming to Rathmines Dental for years. Whether it's been my regular checkups or for some unfortunately needed emergency work. It feels like you're calling a family member with your problem and that's the care you get too. You're not just an appointment - they really do care about you and how you feel. . Back when I first came in, it had been some time since I visited a dentist and I was nervous but Brian, Lynne and Amy made me absolutely comfortable. When the emergency work popped up, they fit me in at short notice and got everything fixed up. Rathmines Dental was referred to me by a friend and now I recommend them to everyone else looking for a dentist. Thanks for the care over the years team :)
You are very welcome Marty. Thanks for the lovely comments.
Fantastic experience: It’s rare that you can enjoy trips to the dentist but my trips to Rathmines Dental are always pleasant. Lynne and Brian are thorough but efficient and I always leave the practice feeling better than I did going in!
Hi Jason. Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the lovely review, it has made our day.
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Rathmines Dental, they always make me feel so welcome and cared for. The service it excellent. Its not often you can say you look forward to the dentist but I honestly do here. 100% recommend!!
Hi Laura. Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the lovely review, much appreciated. We are looking forward to seeing you too.
Fantastic experience: Such a lovely team and always ready to see within short notice when in severe pain. Dr McEniff really knows how to deal with extremely anxious patients and does everything to make you feel at ease. As I'm moving away I unfortunately have to find a new dentist but I can highly recommend this clinic.
Hi. Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the great review. Sorry we are losing you and good luck with your move. Remember to find a dentist in your new town. Word of mouth is always the best recommendation - ask your friends and co-workers.
Fantastic experience: Excellent dental care received from Lynne and Brian in Rathmines Dental. Very thorough and professional work delivered in a very caring manner!
Hi Conor. Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the 5 star review, it is much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Denfitly a 5 star , I was looking for a good dentist since I moved back from London and found one , they are all so nice in there and so accommodating, I had a tooth pulled, and it went so well and healed amazing and i have also had my teeth cleaned in there which was brilliant as well, and every time i had a problem with my tooth they got me in straight away , Highly recommend them, very happy
Thanks for the great review Justin. It was a pleasure looking after you. See you in 6 months.
Fantastic experience: Lovely people, very accommodating even when always busy. It's my first dentist in Ireland and i am not going to change! They explain any procedure to put a patient at ease. Highly recommended.
Thanks Luba, it was a pleasure to look after you. I always try to treat people the way I would like to be treated myself! All the best.
Fantastic experience: I always hated the dentist and put off going because I had such terrible experiences but came to Rathmines Dental because a pal MADE me. Brian, Lynne and Amy have been fantastic since the get go and I've been a regular now for 3 years so my fear of the dentist has been cured by the professional but really friendly service. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
Thanks Harry. It has been a pleasure looking after you. My favorite thing about my job is looking after someone who is terrified (like you were) and showing them modern dentistry is not terrifying, that there is no need to fear coming to the dentist.
Fantastic experience: I had a surprisingly pleasant experience getting my teeth cleaned by Lynne. She was extremely friendly and professional and she ensured that I was comfortable through every stage of the process. My teeth look so much cleaner and healthier and the cleaning itself was virtually painless! Thank you so much, Lynne, I really appreciate all that you have done!! Debora
Hi Debora. You are very welcome enjoy them! see you soon, Lynne
Fantastic experience: Such a lovely team. Everyone was so professional, warm and are great at putting you at ease. Brian explains any thing he needs to do in a simple and comforting manner. Will be my dentist from now on.
Thanks Sarah for the great review. Much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic dentist. Highly recommended always extremely helpful and always an enjoyable experience. Already looking forward to my next check up and clean!
Thanks Karl. It is always nice to get such lovely feedback.
Fantastic experience: Top class service. Everything is dealt with calmy and professionally.... Years ago a friend with anxiety issues recommended them to me saying they were the only dentist she could go to. It's obvious why once you meet them. Couldn't recommend them enough.
Thanks Cormac, much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: I am terrified of dentists but I loved these guys. Very friendly, warm and they do a good job. Thanks you Brian, Amy and Lynn
Thanks for the nice feedback.
Fantastic experience: Very good service and the staff go the extra mile to help.
Happy to go the extra mile :) Thanks for the review.
Fantastic experience: Like most people i don't like going to the dentist and after a bad experience with my previous dentist i had put off a visit until a tooth chipped. My Partner and Daughter both go to Rathmines Dental and have nothing but great things to say about the entire team. I am just back from having 2 fillings and have to say that they could not have done more to make me feel at ease. They walked me through ever step of the procedure and while no filling is an enjoyable experience i wouldnt want anyone else taking control. I really can not recommend them enough. If like me you are an anxious person at the best of times then Rathmines Dental is the place for you and all your mouthly issues.
Thanks Ziggy. We very much appreciate the good review. As I've said before all of us here try to treat patients as we would like to be treated ourselves. PS I love the phrase 'mouthly issues'!!
Fantastic experience: The team here are wonderful. Everything is made easy and uncomplicated. I can't recommend Rathmines Dental enough, I was expecting visiting the dentist to be an uncomfortable and bad experience but it was quite the opposite, all thanks to how nice and caring the team here are, they make every effort to make sure you are at ease and happy walking out the door.
Hi Ian. Thanks for the positive review, it is much appreciated. We always try to treat people as we would like to be treated ourselves. See you at your next check up. Brian, Lynne, and Amy.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, highly recommend!
Thanks Peter. Much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Without a doubt best dentist out there. Been going to him since uni about 10 years ago. I travel back from London specifically to go here still. Always quick, easy and painless. Minimum fuss and excellent at what he does. Cant recommend highly enough.
Thanks Anne-Marie, much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of Brian and Lynn and Amy for many years. What a team - their dental work is second to none. Such a fabulous team who make one feel at ease from the moment you step inside. Amazing and thankyou all
Fantastic experience: Great dentist very friendly
Fantastic experience: The best dentist around. Brian and the team always do an excellent job - while making sure you are comfortable and procedures are painless. Couldn’t recommend highly enough. 10/10!
Thanks Christine. Much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: I go to Brian in Rathmines Dental for the past 20 years as required. Recently a back tooth flared up and on going to Brian an x ray confirmed part of the tooth prong had broken off in the gum which meant the tooth would have to come out. I was put on two lots of anti-biotics to clear the infection in advance of the tooth being removed. The tooth didn't settle fully with the anti-biotics due to the issue involved as outlined above so there was a lot of discomfort. Two days ago Brian removed the tooth. The process was much less painful than I expected, all the pressure and discomfort is gone and I've had no problems since so am totally relieved. Like most people I don't relish dental visits but when I need to go I'm more than happy with Brian and have already recommended him to others over the years. Brian, Lynn and Amy all work in a very relaxed yet professional way so clients are put at ease no matter what procedure they undergo. I therefore highly recommend Rathmines Dental based on my own experience of 20 years.
Fantastic experience: was in today for a check up and clean brian fixed a small filling on the spot i didnt know i needed. Amazing staff I freak at the dentist and they put me at ease HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM <3
Thanks Cara. Always a pleasure :)
Fantastic experience: Thanks Brian and Amy, you have been looking after me for year's. Always such a nice visit and job well done.
Thanks JP much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Have been going to Brian for years & would highly recommend his dental practice. Very friendly & efficient & will always fit you in if you're having any problems. Thanks guys!
Fantastic experience: I had occasion to visit Rathmines Dental recently when I was in Dublin and had trouble with a tooth. Lynne & Brian were extremely understanding and fitted me into see them despite their busy schedule. They were very reassuring and I discovered that a filling had come out which Brian expertly re-did for me. I have no hesitation in recommending Rathmines Dental for their professionalism, expertise and patience with an otherwise nervous patient!
Thanks Lisa and I am glad the tooth is OK now.
