About Us

Oranmore Endodontics As a practice limited to endodontics, we have special equipment such as an operating microscopes for enhanced vision, a dedicated endodontic ultrasonic unit and tips for refined tooth structure removal and instrument retrieval, bridge removers, post removers, apex locators and digital radiographs, which a general dentist may not have. The whole purpose of which is to complete treatment as effectively as possible and get you back on the track of routine dental care. Once this has been completed, you will then will sent back to your own dentist for the required subsequent treatment. Follow up visits with Dr. McCabe & Dr Ó Móráin to ensure the treatment prescribed has been successful will be arranged and are necessary.

We were the first and longest established endodontic practice in the West of Ireland. The dental practice at No. 1, Cloonarkin Drive, Oranmore was originally set up in 1993. The practice was limited exclusively to endodontics in 2000.In October 2007, I moved my practice from 1 Cloonarkin Drive, to a purpose built state of the art facility, just down the road, Oranmore Endodontics, Old Limerick Rd, Oranmore.
