Meet the Rest of the Team

Here are two key services in life that once found make a huge difference; a good barber ( hairdresser) and a quality dentist. Here’s the later. Glavin Dental Care is the dentist you’ve been looking for. I’ve been seeing David for years now. The professionals working here will take good care of you, their bedside manner is fantastic, very skilled with the tools of the trade. Highly recommended!

I have been working with these guys for years now! With lots of hard work and timely communication, they made sure they delivered the best to me. Highly recommended!

Ariana AJ Beaverhausen

I hadn’t been to a dentist in a shamefully long time, and after breaking a tooth, I was recommended Glavin Dental Care. Lorna is my dentist, and she’s absolutely brilliant. Excellent patient communication – she tells you what she’s doing and why, and takes great care in ensuring the whole dental experience is completely pain-free and comfortable. All the staff I’ve met at this practice are superb – friendly and caring. And my broken horror of a tooth is now repaired and trouble-free. They are taking on new NHS patients (I’m one). Cannot recommend highly enough.

ELAINE MASON

Fantastic dentists; I’ve been with them for a couple of years. Great with emergency appointments and really care about their service. They take the time to explain the procedures and make you comfortable with what needs to be done and the difference between NHS and private work. Couldn’t recommend them more!
