I would avoid attending here. Dr Salma Naz “treated” me April 2023 for... what felt like a little chip missing on my tooth. €2203 weeks later I returned because I felt like there was still a piece missing. She said it was fine and shaved a further piece of my tooth.10 months later I am feeling pain and attend another two dentists to seek opinion who took X-ray and confirmed the “treatment” I received was no sufficient. As you can see from the x Ray there is a large part missing where Dr Salma left a gap between my tooth and gum.Attended dr Salma services again, where she removed filling and did it all again (so she knew there was an issue from x Ray) when she finished she told me it may not work and I will likely need a root canal because there is decay and my gum is inflamed. I was in shock.Fast forward a few weeks and I couldn’t get a response from practice and beginning to feel pain.I had to have emergency dental surgery resulting in thousands of euros and time off work and medication.I have attended other smiles dentist in another location with no issues. But I will be warning everyone from them going forward.This practice did not care that I was in an immense amount of pain.I am amidst legal advice and would recommend you do NOT attend a smiles clinic. You will pay the price.read more

As someone who has had some awful dental experiences I am extremely happy... to have found Smiles Dental and Dr Kumar. Dr Kumar is the most caring, kind and genuine dentist I’ve ever come across. He has always gone out of his way to make sure his patients are looked after. He’s always happy to help and his attitude and passion towards his work have made me feel like I’m in the safest hands I could possibly be. I would absolutely recommend Smiles Dental to anyone who’s in need of a dentist.read more

Professional and makes you feel in control at all times. I felt very safe,... comfortable and in control.I also brought my 2 year old daughter here for a visit while I was getting a clean and they were so friendly with her.Dr. K.Karra invited her to sit and experience the the chair. He gave her the mirror tool and the glasses to explore. Before we left he gave her a sticker. He made the whole introduction to the dentist very enjoyable and positive for her.read more

I visited this place with my 8-year-old son, and it's the first time in... Ireland that I've encountered such rude behavior from a doctor/dentist. My son was nervous as it was his first time at the dentist.Throughout our visit, Dentist Mr. Kumar made very inappropriate remarks like, 'His teeth are so dirty. Why is he nervous? I don't want to start my day dealing with a vomiting child; it's too early.' He refused to clean my son's teeth until he stopped being nervous, which only made things worse.He wouldn't let me explain the problem with my son's teeth, insisting that I stay away while my son was experiencing dry spitting due to nervousness. The way he spoke to me was incredibly rude, often making insulting and humiliating remarks. He repeatedly emphasized how dirty my son's teeth were, even comparing them to a dirty sink that hasn't been cleaned daily. I was shocked by his manner and felt he shouldn't speak to anyone like that; no client deserves such treatment.The situation escalated when he refused to treat my son because he didn't want to deal with a nervous child prone to dry spitting at the start of his day.I was surprised when I was doing the billing at the reception and overheard him talking to his next clients, who were white and appeared to be regular clients. It was a stark contrast. I realized he was particularly rude to me, which I didn't understand, considering he is also a person of color, like me.I will never visit his clinic again, and I feel compelled to leave a review about his behavior. He is an awful dentist and appears to be a generally unpleasant person."read more

The team in Blanchardstown are so welcoming with warm smiles. Dr Salma is... more than just a dentist, she is such a beautiful person and really looks after her patients and is just a pleasure to visit. I'm not normally a person for leaving reviews, but this review is well deserved, I highly recommend Dr. Salma and all at smiles dental 🩷🌟read more

Very disappointed with both, dental treatment and general treatment of a... patient/person during my last couple of visits. Been 3 weeks now since my last dental treatment at the center but I am still in pain but don't think there would be any point in returning to smiles, blanchradstown based on my experience during the last two visits.read more

Dr Kumar is amazing. I put off dental treatment for so long because of a... previous bad experience I had. I have genuinely never met a dentist to put you at ease immediately. I had 2 appointments with him this week and he is truly the warmest and professional dentist I've met.Highly recommend for nervous Nellie's like me!read more

I did call for make appointment. They took the deposit and didn't make an... appointment for me. When I arrived, she asked me did I call the wrong dentist ?. I even had to show her the phone number I called below and she still thought thats not their faults. After that , she told me to come back and didn't even give me an apologize. It wasted my time, my money for nothingread more

Made an appointment with you for tomorrow 28th Dec online which I was... aware of the €79 consultation fee but received a call to pay for the consultation up front & if I needed an X-ray it would be another €69 ? What a rip off. I had a consultation with 3D dental at the red cow which cost me €50 which included all x-rays . Yes I cancelled the appointment. Have no idea what the €79 was for if it didn’t include X-rays ??read more

I called up Smiles Blanchardstown around 3 weeks ago as I had really bad... wisdom tooth ache and needed to get it extracted. Despite it being a Sunday, I was squeezed in for an emergency extraction the very same day.Dr Arkan explained the procedure and the costs involved in detail before beginning to ensure I was aware. Would say it is a bit expensive, however considering it’s an emergency consult, I was more happy to be getting treated the same day.The procedure was carried out very swiftly, and I barely felt any pain during the extraction, and even after the anaesthetic wore down. Recovery was also very swift.Would 100% recommend Dr Arkan and this practice.read more

5 1/2 years ago I broke my front tooth on the afternoon of a Friday. Long... story short, I could not get my regular dentist they were gone for the weekend. The only dental practice I could get through to was Smiles Blanchardstown Dublin 15. I had to get my broken tooth replaced with an implant which was carried out by Dr Arkan. Smiles dental practice is only closed for Christmas Day. They are always available for emergencies. Since I got my implant I have been using Smiles for regular checkups. With every bit of confidence I have. I would totally recommend this practice to anybody and everybody.read more

01/09/2023Booked an appointment for my partner in the morning directly... with Smiles got one for 1730 which was covered by my policy, details were sent over to the practice by the insurer of my visit and all cost paid directly to Smiles by the insurer.Went in for general assessment and was charged an extra €60 for an emergency (this visit was was already covered by my insurance and was not an emergency ) appointment apparently and asked to book another appointment to examine her while they put together a plan for treatment.My partner came back to the car and informed me that she was charged €60 which which I went in to enquire with the practice.I was told “it’s the company’s policy/regulations when they see a patient on the same day it’s classified as an emergency despite having an appointment” BS I thought, I then asked to see that policy/regulations that state as such and I was not provided with one rather they told me that it’s only discussed in the practice.I therefore went ahead to explain that you can not apply extra charges for a visit (consultation just to book another consultation which is what we initially booked)I was asked to leave and told that I was “threatening their staff and other patients and we will no longer be treating nor putting a plan together for my partner ”I’m a black family man not saying their actions were racially motivated however I’m just curious if Smiles would have acted the same way if there was a white middle class white male inquiring the same as I was or my blackness was threatening.read more

I have never in my life given a bad review but I went for a root canal in... one of my front teeth which had died after jaw surgery, the root canal machine was being used by another dentist so he chipped into it manually and then had me stand in the X-ray room to check if it was in correctly (despite me suggesting I come back another day when the machine would be in use). Since it was slightly discoloured I asked how to whiten it up, was told it could be done from the inside so he filled it with a temporary filling, I was charged full price for the root canal and I called back a few times over the course of weeks to ask when it would be whitened and permanently filled, only to be told I would be called back when it was ready. This was in 2018 (5 years ago) so I don’t think I’ll be getting a call back!! Needless to say I will be going to a new dentist soon to assess the damage to the tooth and will never step foot in smiles dental again.read more
