TOOTHTIME

Welcome to the Toothtime home page!

 

This site is intended to assist the patients of our dental practice by publishing our patient information resources.  The information on this site is intended as an adjunct to, and not a substitute for, a visit to the dentist. 

 

Only by visiting the dentist can comprehensive advice, a proper examination, and correct treatment be obtained. The advice should not be treated as definitive as circumstances differ from case to case.

 

The information on this site is that contained in our patient information handouts, which are supplied to our patients at the appropriate time.  However some of this information may be of use when unable to attend the dentist.  An appointment must be made to attend for treatment.

Toothtime is a business name in the Republic of Ireland, registered to F.X. O’Brien, a general dental practitioner, in Galway.  The practice was founded in 1943 by F.X. O’Brien, B.D.S, N.U.I, at Victoria Place, Galway, and is carried on today by his son, F.X. O’Brien, B.Dent.Sc, U.Dubl, at Forster Street, Galway.  The name is derived from the practice logo (a registered trade mark), which represents the clocks that hang in our waiting room and surgery.  The clocks were executed to our own design by Mike Weerakoon, an artist in steel and other materials working in Galway.  The colour pictures on this site are details from the works of Kelly McEntee, except for the diptych over the "useful and interesting websites"which is "Intersection" 2006 by Kevin Mooney (http://www.kevinmooney.org/).  All of these works hang in the practice. The black and white illustration is taken from a set of prints which have hung in the practice since its foundation.
