Reviews of Edinburgh Dental Institute

叢.

In 2006 My dentist advised me that I should either pay him the amount of a minivan or to be transferred into the care of the University of Dentistry as an outpatient. - not a difficult choice. My teeth were deemed in such a state that up & coming orthodontists and Dental Care consultants could practise on me. After an 1.5 hours of interview and assessment that same year I was accepted and my treatment started in early 2007. I should back up a bit. This institute is NOT a free for all, not everyone will be able to enter into a program like I was. They do perform emergency treatments, but regular visitors are not part of this institute. They do not replace your normal NHS or Private dentist. My treatment in 2007 & 2008 was minimal - many consultancies, measurements and towards the end of 2008 my first real visit. I have been a regular with dentists and have had many. Good and bad. However the one before moving to Edinburgh has only been able to plug holes if you will. So I was a little wary. But I needn't be - the care at Prof Ibbetson Dental Institute for Dentistry is brilliant. They make you feel at ease and use the very latest in local anestheasia. As I said they try to make you at ease, until you have to get a full treatment and boy did I have some treatment! I will give a small overview of what I had so far in the last 4 years Root Canals (about 5 or 6) Nerve Cuts Gum Slices Removal of old fillings - all of them Holing and roughing molars Cleansing gums, teeth and jaw. Veneers on the Front row Caps on the bottom front row Bridges to support the veneers Cement for caps and molars hoods Gold fittings on all molars ... and many many many needles in my palate, gum and jaw to numb for treatment. Only on some occasions it really hurt, (mostly the needles) but hey they are dentists in training and always under supervision of a consultant! Anyone who has been to the dentist and had a filling or a root-canal treatment will know what it is like - I have had this nearly every 2-3 months. - Thinking about it does make my claw clench up. The biggest drawback regarding this 'stretched treatment' They will not give you a guarantee, but if anything is amiss you can always call upon them to fix it. - if it is beyond your own dentist's skill or knowledge. I had my problems, but they weren't anything too major. - Just badly timed. I lost a molar fitting while holidaying abroad, I cracked my Front Veneers twice, just when the weekend started and a cemented metal bridge that gave way on Boxing Day... whoopsie.. But I was able to make an emergency appointment the day after and all was good again. If you (like me) struggled with really bad set of teeth, ground up and anxiety induced acid erosion and possibly facing a bill nearing the £30k. Try asking your dentist if it would be possible to become a subject at the Dental Institute.

Staff are simply wonderful and they make you feel very comfortable. The building seems dated but don't let that put you off what is actually an excellent service. The building is also very clean, and quiet which is nice. There is good access to public transport. Highly recommended

My 6 year old daughter needed 1 bad tooth out usual she goes made and won't let the dentist look but the staff where amazing went above and beyond keeping her relaxed I was so shocked when they said they done it already the bad tooth was out I can't thank the staff enough for keeping both of us calm they are truly good with the kids 😊

The children's department here is absolutely brilliant, especially for nervous children. The surroundings are actually quite pleasant, with little constellations on the ceiling for the children to look at. It's an excellent facility.
