I’ve had one implant and I’m going back for another, as well as looking at some corrective action on a couple of teeth. Each appointment has run on time and the staff happen to be polite and professional. They are friendly too, which is always a nice bonus.

All the staff are very friendly and helpful. My appointment was with hygienist, Anne McIntyre. Anne is a superb professional hygienist, she puts patients at ease and makes a wonderful job of my teeth.

I am currently going through intense work on my teeth and tbh I have dreamed of having beautiful teeth for years & years but I did not think I could put myself through it all.
Colin & his girls have made it bearable & I am so glad I decided to go ahead with it.
It’s not all completed yet but I am delighted I can smile again after years of being so self conscious & upset about my teeth
So yeah I recommend you do it 200%
You will not regret it. x

Highly recommended Bothwell Dental and Implant Clinic. Colin and all the staff were fabulous during my treatment...given that I'm the biggest dentist feerty ever. Every single step was explained clearly and I even turned up for all of my treatment appointments...a big step for me. The overall result was amazing -just a shame you can't see it behind my mask! 😷

Despite being a challenging case for Mr Murphy & his team, I have had a positive experience from the start and ongoing. This is in stark contrast to my previous dental experiences and made such a difference to me whereby I no longer dread dental appointments and for the first time ever, I love my smile.

I joined Bothwell Dental Surgery in my teenage years and have never looked back. ALL staff are professional, courteous and always go the extra mile. I even opted for cosmetic dentistry in my adult years and have never been more confident with my new smile. Thank you

Just had the new Airflow Technology with hygienist Anne . Wow what a difference! My teeth and gums feel amazingly clean and healthy and look as good as tooth whitening. Would definitely recommend this procedure at Bothwell Dental Care.

I’m delighted with the results of my Invisalign treatment. I can now smile with confidence and I can’t thank Raymond and all the staff enough for their professional and friendly treatment. Wish I had done this years ago.

Fantastic dentist! Been through a few dentists which have been horrible and now I've found the perfect one! Easily the best dentist I've ever been to. Would recommend anyone who hates the dentist like me to come here, they do a great professional job which I've not had any problems with.

Before I moved to Bothwell I had always considered just going ahead and getting cosmetic dentistry, but I was never 100% satisfied with the dentists I had met and with my dental phobia it just never happened. Then I met Raymond and the team at Bothwell Dental Care. He instantly reassured me and after showing me some of his previous work I took the… plunge and went ahead with it. When I had spoken with dentists up in Aberdeen, their first questions were always about the money. When I spoke to Raymond he just asked what he could do to give me the smile I wanted. I was also able to get sedation
