Lifetime Achievement of the Year
Holywood Dental Care and Nigel Smith Dental Care, Bangor, are two state-of-the-art independent family dental practices in North Down. The practices welcome patients for general dentistry and cosmetic dentistry including same-day Cerec crowns and veneers, tooth whitening, restorative work and dental implants. Invisalign is a large part of both of the practices with Dr Nigel Smith, who is principal dentist, being one of few comprehensive Invisalign GDP providers in the country. The practices follow digital workflow with many intraoral scanners and therefore do not need to use traditional impressions, making the patient journey more enjoyable. Both practices are award-winning and have been recognised for their commitment and achievements in the dental profession with awards obtained at Irish Dentistry Awards and the Private Dentistry Awards in London. The clinics welcome new patients.
