Adult Orthodontic Treatment in Dublin

 

If you are considering adult orthodontic treatment here in Dublin, you are not alone. Adults now make up a significant and growing proportion of orthodontic patients, and modern orthodontics offers more treatment options than ever before. Whether your goal is to improve your smile, correct your bite or address a more complex jaw problem, treatment can be tailored to your individual needs.

At Lusk Orthodontics, we provide specialist adult orthodontic treatment in Dublin using the latest evidence-based techniques and technology. From straightforward teeth straightening to complex multidisciplinary care involving jaw surgery, skeletal expansion or airway-focused treatment planning, every case begins with a comprehensive diagnosis and a personalised treatment plan.

Why do adults seek orthodontic treatment?

Every adult has different reasons for seeking orthodontic treatment. Some have always wanted straighter teeth but never had the opportunity. Others notice their teeth gradually moving over time. Many patients are referred by their dentist, periodontist, ENT surgeon, oral and maxillofacial surgeon or sleep physician because orthodontics forms an important part of their overall treatment plan.

Common reasons include:

  • Crooked, crowded or spaced teeth
  • Changes in the bite over time
  • Jaw pain, clicking or TMJ-related problems
  • Sleep-disordered breathing
  • Preparation for orthognathic (jaw) surgery
  • Orthodontic treatment alongside periodontal (gum) care
  • Improving the smile before restorative dentistry

Why choose Lusk Orthodontics?

Everything we do begins with an accurate diagnosis. We built Lusk Orthodontics as a purpose-designed specialist orthodontic clinic equipped with the technology required to diagnose and treat cases ranging from the simplest to the most complex.

State-of-the-art technology

Technology should improve patient care—not simply look impressive.

Our clinic combines:

  • State-of-the-art low-dose CBCT imaging
  • Digital intraoral scanning
  • Fully customised orthodontic appliances
  • Digital treatment planning
  • Partnerships with leading orthodontic laboratories across Europe

These technologies allow us to plan treatment with greater precision, improve safety and deliver more predictable results.

Designed for adult patients

Many adults prefer a quieter and more private clinical environment.

For that reason, we designed Lusk Orthodontics with adult patients in mind. Our clinic includes private consultation rooms, comfortable treatment suites and contemporary surroundings. We have also separated our children’s treatment areas from our adult clinical spaces, allowing adults to receive treatment in a calm and relaxed environment.

A personalised approach

Whether your treatment is simple or highly complex, our philosophy remains unchanged.

We spend time understanding the underlying cause of your orthodontic problem before recommending treatment. Careful diagnosis and meticulous planning form the foundation of every case. This approach consistently produces healthier, more stable and more aesthetic long-term outcomes.

Why Dr Erfan Salloum?

Your treatment is personally diagnosed, planned and delivered by Dr Erfan Salloum, Specialist Orthodontist and Founder of Lusk Orthodontics.

Dr Salloum is one of the most highly qualified orthodontists practising in Ireland. He has pursued postgraduate education, international board certification and advanced clinical training well beyond specialist registration.

His areas of particular expertise include:

  • Adult orthodontics
  • Hidden lingual braces
  • Skeletal palatal expansion
  • Orthodontics combined with jaw surgery
  • Complex multidisciplinary treatment
  • Airway-focused orthodontic treatment planning

Internationally recognised expertise

Dr Salloum is:

  • Diplomate of the European Board of Orthodontics (EBO)
  • Diplomate of the European Board of Aligner Orthodontics (EBAO)
  • Titular Member of the European Society of Lingual Orthodontics (ESLO)
  • Active Member of the World Society of Lingual Orthodontics (WSLO)

He is currently the only orthodontist in Ireland to hold all four distinctions simultaneously.

Together, these qualifications reflect something genuinely exceptional. European experts have independently assessed Dr Salloum’s clinical work across three distinct areas of orthodontics—conventional fixed braces, clear aligner therapy and customised lingual orthodontics—and found it to meet the highest standards in each.

Whether your treatment is straightforward or highly complex, you can feel confident knowing your care is being delivered by a specialist orthodontist with an exceptional commitment to clinical excellence and lifelong learning.

What should I expect?

Adult orthodontic treatment differs from treatment in children because the jaws have stopped growing. Treatment planning must also consider existing dental work, gum health and bone support.

At your consultation, Dr Salloum will carry out a comprehensive clinical assessment and obtain the records needed to make an accurate diagnosis. He will explain your treatment options, expected treatment times, likely outcomes and any limitations. If your treatment involves other specialists, he will coordinate your care with them throughout treatment.

Book a consultation

If you are considering orthodontic treatment as an adult, the first step is a comprehensive consultation. We will assess your individual needs, discuss all suitable treatment options and help you decide which approach is right for you.

We highly recommend Dr Erfan Sallom. He transformed our daughter’s teeth, and she’s extremely happy with her beautiful smile! We were looking for an Orthodontist who had a reputable history, gave excellent results, held high standards, was kind and gentle, and that is what we got. She didn’t have to get any teeth removed, which was a bonus. Really appreciated the individual time, updates, never felt rushed, and a personable approach. Thank you, Erfan. – Georgina
