Exciting News: Ria Fanning Joins Our Athenry Dental Practice!

We’re thrilled to announce that Ria Fanning, an experienced and highly regarded dental hygienist, has joined our Athenry practice!

A Familiar Face in Athenry: Say Hello to Ria Fanning

Ria would be known by many from her time working in Loughrea, where she built a reputation for her gentle approach, professionalism, and dedication to patient care. Now, we’re delighted to welcome her to Athenry. We look forward to seeing familiar faces follow her over to continue receiving the same excellent care.

From Loughrea to Athenry: Ria’s Journey in Dentistry

Ria’s journey in dentistry began in 2008, when she started her career as a dental nurse. She gained invaluable experience in both general and specialist practices, developing a deep understanding of patient needs and dental health. Her passion for helping people led her to further her education, and in 2014, she graduated with honours in Dental Hygiene from University College Cork. She joined Dental Care Ireland Athenry in September 2025.

Caring for Smiles in Athenry

What truly sets Ria apart is her ability to make even the most nervous patients feel comfortable and at ease. She understands that visiting the dentist can be daunting for some, so she takes the time to listen, reassure, and provide gentle, thorough care. Her goal is always the same: to help patients achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile in a relaxed environment.
