About us

Our clinic was founded in 2008 by Claire Rath who completed her primary dental degree in UCC.

After several years in private practice in the United Kingdom, Claire returned with her family to settle in Cork in 2002. Claire opened the clinic to offer cosmetic dental services that emphasise the importance of a preventative approach.

She completed an MClin in Prosthodontics in 2009 at Kings College in London and has continued to maintain her knowledge with postgraduate training in Europe and the United States.

We look forward to welcoming you at the practice!
