by Guy Hiscott
Celebrating the seventh year of the Irish Dentistry Awards, this year’s winners came out on top on Friday 26 January at the Mansion House in Dublin.
More than 350 guests, including this year’s finalists, enjoyed an evening of celebration and entertainment at the 2018 Irish Dentistry Awards, which commemorates dental excellence in Irish dentistry.
There were 15 awards up for grabs, including Best New Practice, Best Team, Best Patient Care, and the regional Practice of the Year awards.
The biggest award of the night – Practice of the Year 2018 – was given to Gate Dental Clinic in Galway, who were both surprised and elated with the results.
New faces and multiple wins abound, this year’s awards celebrated both the exceptional dedication of dental practices in Ireland as well as the lasting impact of an Irish Dentistry Award.
