Dentist Recommendation

Could anyone recommend a good dentist NHS or private?

A tooth at the back is more filling than tooth and it's giving
me trouble. I also have a bridge that needs work.

TBH At this stage I'm more concerned with getting a good job done than price.

I live in Bangor area but have no issues with going anywhere in N Ireland

Thanks

    I'd recommend Cherryvalley as well, Mark seems to be the best one there so I'd ask for him.
  • A third recommendation for Mark at Cherryvalley.

    My BIL (who hates going to the dentist and in fact avoided going for over 10 years!) goes to Aidan at the same practice.

    I'm in Belfast and had to make an appointment for fillings yesterday after chipping what I thought was one tooth but turned out to be two :(

    I'm not a fan of dentists and last time I was at one was about 10 years ago.
    After recommendations from family and friends I went with Cavity Corner on the Antrim Road in Belfast. The staff were great, put my mind at ease, explained everything, gave me a list of each price of what I got or need done, and really made me feel relaxed about the whole thing.
    After being at the dentist from hell all of my life, I'm delighted I went there, and no pain whatsoever!!

    Castlebawn in Ards are decent and were recommended to me by someone in the medical profession. They've also opened a branch in Bangor which I've no experience of.
