Dental Reflections Dublin – Shanisty Ireland

Truth time. The last two New Year’s Resolutions/promises I’ve made to myself is better self-care. I am not insinuating that I’m a particularly unhealthy person, but I truly believe we can always strive to be better when it comes to self-care. Especially, moms!

Admittedly, my dental health has taken a backseat … for years. I’m cringing even typing these words. I won’t bore you with the excuses: kids, insurance, timing, moves, yadda yadda. But the truth is, my dental health hasn’t been a top priority for me. My kids dental health has for sure, but not mine.

Last summer, the kids and I went in for a regular check-up and x-rays at Dental Reflections Dublin. We were greeted with the friendliest staff and Dr. Rudi As-Sanie is simply the sweetest. The remarkable thing about this practice… I didn’t have to feel embarrassed or guilty for not visiting a dentist in quite a few years. They didn’t judge me for letting my flossing lapse, they were genuinely interested and ready to help me take control of my dental health again.

After some x-rays showed I needed a crown (yow!) and a deep cleaning, I said my good-byes and left. Honestly, I thought I would leave the crown waiting for a bit while we focused on other expenses for the kids. I know, I know.

But Dr. As-Sanie emailed me personally asking me to come back and have the procedures done. She said it was important to take care of my health, especially as a mom. She gets it… she has little ones of her own! That’s where I decided right then and there to go back.

During the last few months, I have had an incredible deep cleaning experience and left with my very first Sonic Care tooth brush. I AM OB-SESSED!!!! Yes, yes, yes! I already can tell a difference in my teeth. I’ve also had the crown procedure completed without pain, which is huge.

Needless to say, I am extremely happy with my new dental office and look forward to many years with Dr. As-Sanie for myself, and my entire family.

I’m embarrassed to admit, but it’s been a really REALLY long time since I’ve made my way into a dental office. With so many moves, it’s something I know I needed to do, but it kept falling down the priority list. And then I’d forget. And then I’d blink and it’s been a couple of years, YOW!

Last week, that all changed as the kids and I made our way to Dental Reflections Dublin for exams and cleanings. The office is conveniently set in an office park in Dublin. It’s pretty close to the zoo, which is a win for us!

When you walk in, the waiting room is very clean and has a feeling of freshness with the pale blues and white theme. There are a ton of Legos for the kids to play with…honestly, any place with Legos is a fan favorite at our house!

Inside the office, there is an adult area and a place for the kids to be examined. Luke and Eden and I were separated since we all had appointments at the same time. I was a little nervous, as this was their first time but they did excellent!! The amazing hygienist took several photos for me, and I could hear Luke (no surprise there) asking lots of questions. The staff was so patient with my kids. Not to mention, the kids had no cavities and a clean bill of health! YAY!

Dr. Rudi As-Sanie was so kind and understanding as I sheepishly admitted how long it has been since I’ve seen a dentist. I really appreciated how non-judgmental the entire staff was. Let’s be honest, how many of us REALLY floss everyday, anyway?!

After x-rays, a full exam and deep cleaning I met with Dr. Rudi who chatted about Luke and Eden’s appointment and then mine. She was so helpful and pulled up pictures of my mouth to explain some potential issues I may face down the road.

The entire experience was amazing. The office space was clean and modern, while the staff was friendly and accommodating. I cannot rave enough about this practice, and I am happy to say we finally have a local dentist who we all love and trust!
