Why English-Speaking Patients Choose Clínica Dental Raíces

1. No language barriers — ever

You'll be able to discuss symptoms, ask questions, and understand every step of your treatment in fluent English. From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave, communication is clear and reassuring. Our Co-founder Aidan is also from Ireland and this a native English speaker and all dentists have fluent english.

2. UK and Ireland-comparable standards

Many of our patients are used to British or Irish dental care and want the same quality (or better) abroad. We use modern equipment, premium materials, personalized care, and current best practices, without the long NHS waits or high private UK prices.

We're a small clinic by choice. That means longer appointment times, a calmer experience, and a dentist who actually knows you. No production-line feel, no being rushed out the door.

Prices vary depending on the treatment, but here's a rough guide so you know what to expect:

Visiting on Holiday? We've Got You Covered

A toothache on holiday is no one's idea of fun. If you're staying in the area and need urgent care, we'll do everything we can to see you the same day. We can also handle routine treatments while you're here and many of our visitors combine a holiday with check-ups, cleanings, whitening, crowns, implants or even veneers (just allow extra time for porcelain work).

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you speak fluent English at the clinic?

Yes, we offer full, fluent English service from reception to treatment. You can book, ask questions, and discuss your treatment entirely in English.

Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?

We recommend booking ahead to guarantee a slot, but we always try to accommodate dental emergencies on the same day where possible. You can book by phone, WhatsApp, email, or through our website.

Do you handle dental emergencies for tourists?

Yes. If you're on holiday in Tenerife and have a dental emergency, contact us straight away and we'll do everything possible to see you the same day or as soon as possible.

Will my UK or Irish dental insurance cover treatment in Tenerife?

Many private dental insurance plans cover treatment abroad on a reimbursement basis. We provide detailed invoices in English that you can submit to your insurer. We also fill in MED2 Forms for Irish patients that want to claim 20% tax back from revenue.ie

How does the cost compare to dental care in the UK or Ireland?

Private dental treatment in Tenerife is typically significantly more affordable than in the UK or Ireland — often 40–60% less — while using the same premium materials and modern techniques.

Can I get veneers or implants during a one-week holiday?

Composite veneers, whitening, and most general dentistry can be completed in a single visit. Porcelain veneers and crowns and implants usually require more time or a follow-up visit, which we can plan around your travel schedule. We can usually do a crown in less than 5 business days but best to contact us first as lab times vary and your trip may land on a public holiday when labs are shut.

How often should I visit the dentist?

We recommend a check-up and cleaning every 6 to 12 months. If you're an expat without a regular dentist, we'll help you set up a simple maintenance schedule.

Where exactly is the clinic?

We're in Los Gigantes, south Tenerife and easily reachable from Santiago del Teide, Puerto de Santiago, Alcalá, Adeje, Las Americas, Los Cristianos, the south airport, and the wider south coast.
