A Different Approach to Specialist Orthodontics in Dublin

At Lusk Orthodontics, we do not believe patients should choose us simply because we claim to be “better” than other orthodontic clinics. Dublin and Ireland are home to many excellent orthodontists providing high-quality orthodontic treatment.

What makes us different is our philosophy, our attention to detail, and the way we approach specialist orthodontic care.

We believe orthodontics should never follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach. Every smile, every bite, and every patient is different. That is why we provide a broad range of modern and highly specialised orthodontic treatments tailored specifically to each patient rather than relying on a single treatment philosophy or appliance system.

As a specialist orthodontic clinic in Dublin, we provide:

• Lingual braces (hidden braces)
• Clear aligner therapy
• Adult orthodontics
• Teen and children’s braces
• MARPE, MSE, DOME and BARME skeletal expansion techniques 
• Complex multidisciplinary and airway focused orthodontics
• Surgical orthodontic treatment planning

Many orthodontic clinics understandably attract patients primarily because of convenience or location. However, at Lusk Orthodontics, we are fortunate to welcome patients travelling not only from Dublin and across Ireland, but also from Northern Ireland, the UK, and occasionally Europe for highly specialised orthodontic care.

Specialist Expertise in Lingual Braces and Clear Aligners

Lusk Orthodontics has developed a particular reputation for discreet orthodontic treatment, complex adult orthodontics, and evidence-based treatment planning.

Our Clinical Director and Founder, Dr Erfan Salloum is the only orthodontist in Ireland to have successfully passed the rigorous Active Membership assessment process of both the European Society of Lingual Orthodontics (ESLO)  and the World Society of Lingual Orthodontics (WSLO). He is also the largest provider of WIN customised lingual braces in Ireland and among the largest providers in Europe in terms of annual treatment numbers. This extensive experience allows us to provide highly specialised hidden braces treatment to a standard rarely available elsewhere in Ireland.

In clear aligner therapy, Dr Salloum is also the only orthodontist in Ireland to have passed the assessment process of the European Board of Aligner Orthodontics (EBAO)

These distinctions reflect years of advanced training, detailed case assessment, and a strong commitment to delivering orthodontic treatment to internationally recognised standards.

Whether patients are seeking routine orthodontic care in Dublin, adult braces, skeletal expansion, or complex multidisciplinary orthodontic care, our philosophy remains the same:

Diagnosis first. Personalised treatment. Attention to detail. Long-term stability.

A Boutique Orthodontic Experience

At Lusk Orthodontics, orthodontics is not only about achieving straight teeth. It is also about creating a positive, comfortable, and highly professional experience throughout the journey.

Orthodontic treatment takes time. Patients not only want excellent clinical results, but also want to feel listened to, respected, and cared for throughout the process.

That is why we designed our clinic as a boutique specialist orthodontic practice focused on comfort, calmness, efficiency, and continuity of care.

From the clinic design and advanced digital technology to the patient flow and appointment systems, every detail has been carefully considered to make treatment as smooth and stress-free as possible.

We have invested heavily in systems designed to:

• Reduce waiting times
• Keep appointments running on schedule
• Improve communication
• Help treatment progress efficiently
• Provide continuity of care

Unlike larger multi-location clinics, patients at Lusk Orthodontics are treated by the same specialist orthodontist and the same familiar team in the same location throughout treatment.

We believe this creates trust, consistency, and a more personal orthodontic experience.

Specialist Orthodontic Care with a Personal Approach

Patients also choose Lusk Orthodontics because of the approach taken by Dr Erfan Salloum

Dr Salloum is one of the most highly qualified specialist orthodontists in Ireland, with extensive experience across lingual orthodontics, clear aligners, adult orthodontics, skeletal expansion, and complex bite correction.

However, beyond qualifications and technology, patients consistently value his calm, honest, and approachable manner.

Patients are never rushed. Concerns are listened to carefully, treatment options are explained clearly, and every patient receives the same level of care and attention Dr Salloum would offer to a family member.

This commitment to communication, professionalism, and patient-focused care is at the centre of everything we do.

• Easy road access
