History
The facility was established in a building off St Stephen's Green in 1879. It moved to a purpose-built building in Lincoln Place in 1895. Since the 1990s, the Trinity College School of Dental Science, established by amalgamating the dental schools of Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, has been based in the hospital. The hospital was extended in 1998 and again in 2010, in the latter case with a four-storey atrium exhibiting a sculpture by Fergus Martin.
Little, if any, original research was conducted at the Hospital before 1980. The facility employs a dental team of about 250 people in total. Dublin Dental University Hospital has one of the largest collections of dental literature in Ireland. Students of the School of Dental Science you can avail of this library.
