Welcome to Fortwilliam Specialist Dental Clinic
Fortwilliam Specialist Dental Clinic is a specialist oral surgery practice based on Antrim Road in Belfast. The majority of our patients are referred to us by other dentists, but we also accept self-referrals for dental implant treatment, which means you can inquire with us directly to book a consultation.
Our practice offers complex oral surgery treatments on a referral-only basis, for both private and NHS patients. We handle the placement and restoration of implants, complex surgical tooth extractions, prosthodontics and a wide range of other advanced treatments, particularly for complex cases. Our sister-clinic in Ballymena offers similar services.
