I have had dental problems for quite some time and have visited several dental clinics, but I am truly impressed with this one.
The clinic is clean, safe, and professional. The team provides excellent advice and helped me save a significant amount on my dental treatment costs. Everyone is polite, welcoming, and makes you feel comfortable from the moment you arrive.
My regular dentist, B-Vera Da Silva, has been outstanding. She carefully explained my treatment options and created a well-planned treatment plan tailored to my needs. Her dental assistant is also incredibly friendly, kind, and supportive, making every visit a pleasant experience.
I highly recommend this clinic, especially B-Vera Da Silva, to anyone looking for high-quality dental care.
I had the best experience at Slateford Dental Care. Dr Ibraheem Al-Affan is one of the most patient and reassuring dentists I’ve ever met, especially if you’re someone who feels anxious about visiting the dentist. He creates a calm, relaxed atmosphere and always makes sure you feel comfortable throughout every appointment.
The dental nurses and reception team are also incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and friendly, making every visit a positive experience from start to finish.
I had fillings, hygiene treatment, teeth whitening, and composite veneers, and every procedure was carried out with exceptional care and attention to detail. I couldn’t be happier with the results and would highly recommend Slateford Dental Care to anyone looking for outstanding dental care, particularly if you’re a nervous patient.
I could not be happier with my composite bonding treatment at Slateford Dental Care. Dr Vera da Silva is an absolute artist. She meticulously shaped and colour matched the resin so perfectly that my smile looks completely natural. The procedure was fast and painless and I highly recommend Dr Silva and her fantastic team .
Dr. Kerry Size is a brilliant dentist — professional, friendly, and always puts you at ease. The whole team at Slateford Dental Care is welcoming and supportive, making every visit smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!
Dr Vera, a wonderful Brazilian dentist, was absolutely amazing — professional, caring, attentive and highly skilled from start to finish. The best part of all: she speaks Portuguese! This makes such a difference for the Brazilian and Portuguese-speaking community in Edinburgh.
If you are looking for a dentist in Edinburgh, a Portuguese-speaking dentist, high-quality dental care, a professional dental clinic, and friendly, reassuring treatment, I highly recommend Dr Vera.
The clinic was clean, welcoming and very professional. Dr Vera explained everything clearly, with patience and kindness, making me feel comfortable, confident and well looked after throughout the appointment.
Without a doubt, one of the best dental experiences in Edinburgh / Scotland. Thank you so much for your outstanding care and attention! Highly recommended!
Abraços cariocas! 🇧🇷✨
So i had chipped my front left tooth on the Friday and i was away on holiday on the Saturday. I phoned up at 10am to get it fixed and by 11am i was back in the car and away with my tooth completely fixed. Rami took care of me and explained everything about my teeth in so much detail which i was delighted about. Proper good guy and his assistant was just as good. I’ve booked to see Rami again on the 26th for a full assesment of my teeth. Definitely recommend 100%!!
I had a very positive experience with Dr Ibraheem and his assistant Kasia. Dr Ibraheem was gentle, experienced and very reassuring throughout the appointment. He explained things clearly and helped ease my anxiety. Kasia was also kind and professional, and did her work very well. Thank you both for the excellent care.
I joined the practice as a patient back in May 2025, and since then I have had nothing but great experiences. From the warm welcome at reception every time, to my first appointments with Vera and then with Alison, and throughout the process of getting two dental implants (with Chris and Lauryn following me along the whole way), everything has been extremely positive and straightforward. I always felt at ease, and everyone has been very mindful and professional. A big thank you for improving my oral health, I cannot recommend them enough.
