Finding a dentist in Dublin 2 is easier with the official directory published by the Department of Social Protection. The government list identifies dental professionals, practice addresses, telephone numbers and panel numbers across Dublin 2, including clinics near Grafton Street, Stephen’s Green, Harcourt Street and Grand Canal Square.
Dentists Dublin 2: What the Official List Includes
The publication was first issued on 11 March 2020 and was last updated on 17 September 2026. It covers dentists and practices recorded for Dublin 2, giving patients useful details to confirm a clinic before making contact.
Listed locations include:
- Smiles Dental on South Anne Street and Forbes Street
- Green Dental in Stephen’s Green Shopping Centre
- Chatham Dental on Chatham Street
- Dental Care Ireland on Molesworth Place
- Docklands Dental on Forbes Street
- Harcourt Dental Clinic on Harcourt Street
- Pearly Whites Dental Surgery on Nassau Street
- Dental practices on Baggot Street, Dame Street, Grafton Street and Merrion Square
The directory also provides panel numbers, which can help identify individual practitioners within the official record. Phone numbers should be checked directly with the practice, as clinic arrangements and availability may change.
Medical Card Dental Services and the HSE
Patients should note that this directory does not include medical card scheme providers. The medical card scheme is separate and is operated by the Health Service Executive (HSE).
Anyone seeking dental treatment under the medical card scheme should contact the HSE or their local HSE health office for current information about eligibility, participating dentists and available services. The Department of Social Protection publication should therefore be treated as a directory of listed dentists, not as confirmation that every practice accepts medical cards.
Before contacting a Dublin 2 dental practice
- Confirm the practice address and telephone number.
- Ask whether the dentist is accepting new patients.
- Check consultation fees and treatment costs in advance.
- For medical card services, confirm participation with the HSE.
- Seek urgent advice from a dental professional if you have severe pain, swelling or injury.

Key Takeaway for Patients
The official dentists Dublin 2 directory is a useful starting point for locating practices and contacting listed professionals. However, patients must verify opening hours, fees, availability and medical card arrangements directly with the clinic or the HSE. Using the government information alongside confirmation from the practice can help ensure you receive accurate and current dental-care guidance.
