About us
Tramore Dental opened in 1978 and Dr Sorcha White joined the practice in 2003. As a general practice, we take care of the whole family from ages 1 to 100!
Although our goal is to establish our patients on a routine of regular check-ups so that they don’t require interventions, we do provide more complex treatments if needed, including fillings, crowns, whitening and braces.
For the more nervous person, we offer gas sedation to make treatment more comfortable.

Meet the team
Sorcha graduated from Trinity College Dublin in 2002 and joined Tramore Dental in 2003. The beautiful sea view was irresistible and she bought the practice in 2007.

Outside of work, she is kept busy with her two children and is a devoted hurling fan.
Rebecca joined us in 2020 and is working as Sorcha’s dental nurse. Her previous experience as an airline cabin crew member has given her great customer service skills. In her spare time, she loves to travel, cook for friends and family, and take long walks on the beach.
Sharon joined our team in 2017 after graduating as a hygienist from UCC, where she received the Dentsply Best Clinical Skills award. Before becoming a hygienist, she worked as a dental nurse. She specialises in preventive oral hygiene and instructs patients on the most suitable products to use.
