Our practice

Sixty years on Thingwall Road

Irby Dental Practice has been a family-owned business for over 60 years — and our success still depends on whether our patients are happy.

A family practice, still run like one

We have been looking after families in Irby and the surrounding villages for more than sixty years. In that time the equipment has changed completely and the treatments have moved on beyond recognition — but the way we work has not. People come back because they are treated properly, told the truth about their teeth, and charged a fair price for the work.

We are driven by a simple commitment: to offer people the best dental solutions available, at a price they can actually afford. That means investing in our staff and our equipment rather than in a glossy waiting room, and it means being straight with you about what needs doing now and what can wait.

What that looks like day to day

A written treatment plan with the cost on it before anything starts. Extra time in the chair for anyone who finds the dentist difficult. Denplan and 0% finance so a bigger piece of work does not have to be put off. And the same team every time you walk in.

How we work

What you can expect from us

Four things we hold ourselves to, and that you are welcome to hold us to as well.

  • Affordable by design — we price treatment so people actually get it done, and we say what it costs before we start
  • No treatment you do not need — we will tell you when the honest answer is to leave something alone
  • Time taken, not rushed — longer appointments for anyone anxious, and we stop whenever you ask
  • Continuity of care — a small team means you see the same faces year after year
