New Patients Welcome
We love meeting new patients. Here's everything you need to know about your first visit.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first appointment at Castlemill Dental is a comprehensive new patient examination. Dr. O'Kane will take the time to listen to your concerns, examine your teeth and gums thoroughly, and discuss any treatment that may be needed.
We believe in building long-term relationships with our patients based on trust and transparent communication. There is never any pressure to accept treatment — we provide honest advice and let you make informed decisions at your own pace.
Your First Visit, Step by Step
Registration
Arrive 10 minutes early to complete your patient registration form. Bring any relevant medical history and a list of medications you take.
Consultation
Dr. O'Kane will discuss your dental concerns, health history, and goals. No question is too small — we encourage you to ask about anything.
Examination
A thorough examination of your teeth, gums, bite, and soft tissues. Digital X-rays may be taken if needed to get a complete picture.
Treatment Plan
We'll explain any findings clearly and present your treatment options with transparent pricing. You'll receive a written quote before any work begins.
Booking Follow-Up
If treatment is recommended, we'll book your next appointment at a time that suits you. A €50 deposit secures your booking.

- Any previous dental X-rays or records you have

We are a VHI registered practice and also accept DeCare, Laya Healthcare, and Irish Life Health dental insurance. Please bring your insurance details and we'll help you understand what's covered.
