I was eyeing up my Dremel at 6am sunday morning when I couldn't sleep.

Mmmm, painkillers.

Tried Kavanagh, they're full as one of them is off this week.
Going to ring a place in Salthill tomorrow.

Thanks for the help folks.

I go to Fiona Lyons who works with Brendan Forde, find her brill

Dude...tell your sister she has fat ankles or something and she will remove the offending tooth.....

I went to the one around Forster court most recently, it's beside Almurettos. Very competent folks, I thought, and the dentist even gave me a mirror to watch her work away in my mouth, which was oddly far more reassuring than not knowing what those horrible whining drill sounds are doing...

Andrew Lally down near the docks is good, fixed my broken tooth and was pretty cheap

I cant reccomend Jason McEvaddy on middle street Highly enough.

Really sound guy, who didn't give out about me eating too many sweets/drinking too much coke.

he had to do root canal on me & I didnt feel a thing.

A little pricey though but I would not go to anyone else.

I went to another dentist down by the living room a few years ago & she got the Nurse to hold my head down while pulling a tooth that I thought just needed a filling - the tooth broke in half & it was very painful.

His Dad is in the same place so when you ring make sure you ask for Andrew - although not been to his Da, he could be good too!

I went to Tony McLoughlin in Devon House (just left as you turn up into Dr. Mannix Rd. in Lower Salthill.

He was fierce efficient, told me off about the sugary crap - which I've been replacing with fruit etc. more and more lately. But the damage has been done, so I've to get a good few fillings (the majority of my teeth have cavities of some sort) over the summer, and a bit of orthodontist work to close up gaps which have formed since I had braces in my teens because apparently it's recently been found that people's jaws change shape as they hit the 20-ish mark.
Predator Maw here I come.

He couldn't pull my tooth as it was anchored by 3 massive roots, but the top was pretty badly decayed, and would shatter if he applied enough force.
So that resulted in a surgical extraction where he sliced up the tooth into sections and removed it piece by piece.
Still taking the painkillers and anti-inflamatories.
Because it was a surgical thingy, cost a bit more.

Conor is his father's name.

He's a good dentist, but he scares me a little bit.
