A full dental clinic at 9 Diskin Street where you can explain what hurts in your own language. Checkups, cleanings, fillings, children and every specialty in one place, a short walk from Rechavia and Sha'arei Chesed.
Most people who search for a dentist in Jerusalem in English are not looking for a rare procedure. They are looking for ordinary dental care in a place where the language is not one more thing to manage. These are the six worries this page was built to answer.
You will not have to. The dentists, the hygienists and the front desk here work in English every day, so you can describe the pain the same way you would at home.
Diagnosis here runs on digital and 3D imaging, and the findings are gone through with you in English before anything is scheduled.
Bring your health fund and supplementary plan details to the first visit. The treatment plan you leave with will be built around what you actually hold, not around guesswork.
Ten dentists across seven specialty fields sit in the same clinic, so children, orthodontics, gum treatment, root canals, surgery and implants are all at one address.
Message the clinic on WhatsApp in English instead. Two lines are enough, and you get an appointment time back in writing.
Wolfson Towers, 9 Diskin Street, sixth floor. It is the tall block on the edge of Kiryat Wolfson, minutes from Rechavia and Sha'arei Chesed.
This is Diskin Dental Center's own clinic film. It is spoken in English, it carries English captions, and it was filmed inside the rooms you would be treated in.
Captions are on by default. The film opens with the sentence most English-speaking patients say they were waiting to hear: "Welcome to Diskin Dental Center, located on Diskin Street in the heart of Jerusalem."
The reason patients stay with a clinic is rarely the first filling. It is that the second thing they need is handled at the same address, by people who already have their file. Diskin Dental Center runs ten dentists across seven specialty fields at 9 Diskin Street, alongside three dental hygienists and a practice manager who coordinates between them.
That matters most in the ordinary cases. A cracked tooth that turns out to need a root canal before a crown does not become three clinics and three sets of X-rays. A child who needs a filling this year and braces in three years sees both here, with one set of records.
A routine examination, digital X-rays where they are needed, and a plain answer about what has to be treated now and what can wait.

Describe the problem in a sentence and the clinic will tell you which dentist it belongs with. That part is not your job.
English in a clinic is not a marketing line, it is a question of who is standing next to the chair. Several of the dentists here trained or specialised abroad, and the whole team works in English every day. These are real profiles, taken from the clinic's own staff records.

Nobody enjoys walking into a clinic without knowing how the hour will go. This is the sequence, start to finish.
Send a WhatsApp message in English, or call 02-5612001. Say roughly what you need, whether it is a checkup, a cleaning, a specific tooth that hurts, or an appointment for a child. The clinic replies with a time.
Wolfson Towers, sixth floor. Bring an identity document, your health fund card and your supplementary plan details, plus any X-rays or treatment plans you already have, even from abroad.
A full examination, with digital and 3D imaging where the case calls for it. The clinic runs its own imaging, so nothing waits on an appointment somewhere else.
The dentist goes through what needs treating, what can wait, and what each stage involves, in English, so that you decide rather than agree.
If your case crosses into another field, gums, root canals, orthodontics, surgery, the specialist is in the same clinic and works from the same file.
The clinic sits in Wolfson Towers at 9 Diskin Street, on the sixth floor, on the edge of Kiryat Wolfson. For anyone living in Rechavia, Sha'arei Chesed, Nachlaot or the city centre it is a short walk or a few minutes by car.

Tell us what you need and roughly when suits you. You get a time back in writing, in English.
This is the part that confuses most people who did not grow up in the Israeli system, and it is worth understanding before you sit in a chair anywhere, not only here.
Dental care in Israel is split. The public health funds, the kupot holim, cover dental treatment for children up to a set age through their own clinics, and sell supplementary plans to adults that carry dental benefits. Private clinics such as this one work alongside that system rather than inside it. Which means the practical question is never "is dentistry free", it is what your particular fund and your particular supplementary plan give you, and what the gap is.
The one thing worth doing before your first appointment: find your health fund name and your supplementary plan name, and bring them. A treatment plan written without them is a treatment plan you will have to redo.
One question is worth asking on a first visit at any clinic, and most people do not think of it: ask for the cost of each stage separately rather than one total. It is what makes an Israeli treatment plan readable, and it is what lets you compare it with anything else you have been quoted. Published price guides for individual treatments at this clinic are on the Hebrew pages for dental implants, crowns and root canal treatment.
These are live Google reviews of the clinic, pulled straight from Google rather than retyped onto this page. Names and ratings are whatever Google is showing right now.
You do not have to commit to anything to ask a question. Send one message and get a straight answer about what your case would involve.
Yes. English is spoken day to day by the dentists, the hygienists and the front desk, and the clinic's own film is narrated in English. Practically, it means you can describe symptoms, ask what a treatment involves and query a cost in English, rather than translating as you go or bringing someone with you to interpret.
Wolfson Towers, 9 Diskin Street, sixth floor, Jerusalem, on the edge of Kiryat Wolfson. It is walking distance from Rechavia and Sha'arei Chesed and a few minutes by car from the city centre. There is lift access to the sixth floor. The map on this page opens directly to the building.
Sunday to Thursday, 08:00 to 19:00, and Friday from 08:00 to 12:00. The clinic is closed on Shabbat. If you send a WhatsApp message outside those hours it will be answered when the clinic opens, so there is no need to wait and call.
Yes, and for most English speakers it is the easier route. Message the clinic at 055-558-5850, say what you need and roughly when suits you, and you get a time back in writing. Having the appointment in writing also means there is no risk of mishearing a date or an address over the phone.
Yes. Dr. Revital Shirel is a specialist in pediatric dentistry with a doctorate from Hadassah and the Hebrew University, and Dr. Esti Liebermann works mainly with children and with patients who are anxious. That matters for families, because a child who needs a filling now and braces later stays in the same clinic with the same records.
It depends entirely on which fund and which plan you hold, and those differ from one another a great deal. Bring the details to your first appointment so the treatment plan you are given reflects what you actually hold. That is a far more useful question to ask before treatment is scheduled than after.
Start with an examination and a cleaning. The examination tells you what is genuinely urgent and what is not, which is usually less alarming than people expect after a long gap. Bring any X-rays or treatment plans you have from abroad, even old ones, because they show how things have changed rather than only how they look today.
It stays in the same clinic. Ten dentists across seven specialty fields work at 9 Diskin Street, including gum disease, root canals, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, prosthodontics and oral surgery led by Prof. Nardy Caspi of Hadassah Ein Kerem. You are not sent across the city with a referral letter and asked to repeat your X-rays.
