Had my first appointment with Dr King - it was fantastic. He was really informative and took his time explaining and showing me via the photos he'd taken which course of treatment would be best - it's saved me a lot of money as I had expensive dental procedures booked elsewhere, that I now realise I don't need!
Very friendly and comfortable experience in a lovely clean surgery.

I have been with Slateford Dental Care for a long time, initially with Kelda Richardson and now with Chris Logan who is an excellent dentist, who takes time and care with me, as I am a nervous patient, but feel totally at ease with Chris and his lovely dental nurse. Always greeted by the lovely reception staff. I thoroughly recommend Chris.

I cannot recommend Slateford Dental Care highly enough. I have been attending for many years now and, during that time have experienced significant health issues that have made dental care and treatment difficult. Everyone, including reception staff and dental nurses have been consistently exceptional. My dentist, Stephen Harrison could not have been more supportive and helpful. He is quite simply the best dentist I have ever had.
Alison Stevenson, my hygienist, is a wonder - everyone knows that it is worse going to the hygienist than to the dentist, but not with Alison! And, as with everyone

I am a long-time patient of Slateford Dental Care and see Stephen and Alison when needed. The care is always exceptional, above and beyond what I think many people might imagine they'd receive from a dental practice. I'm not bothered by dental visits, but the kindness, professionalism, awareness of patient health conditions, medications, and phobias is handled with discretion and understanding. The admin staff are great, sorting appts with ease and helping with changes if needed and assistants like Nadia help with smooth running of the dentists! I think in this time of so much change in the health

As a family we’ve been going to Stephen Harrison for over 15 years. He is a brilliant dentist - very professional, thorough, reassuring and gentle. He also excels at putting you at your ease. He explains what he is about to do in calm, clear simple terms, does it and then tells you what he did or found as a result. He was amazing too with my 7 year old who was very anxious about treatment. I can’t recommend him highly enough and he was one of the people we missed most when we lived abroad for a few years!

I had a broken tooth which needed root canal treatment, core build up and an all porcelain crown to be placed. It all sounded very daunting at the beginning, but the whole treatment went smoothly and now I have my tooth back! My dentist Chris Logan was very open and friendly, he explained the whole process very well and why the treatment was needed by showing me X-rays of my tooth. I also had a couple of fillings done with lost of care and a hygienist appointment with Alison Stevenson which helped me understand how to take care of my teeth better. Overall, all of the staff were very friendly and

I recently visited Slateford Dental care for a full check up and then a teeth cleaning. I booked a visit with Dr Robert King, he has been professional, explaining me everything so well in an easy and gentle manner. I also felt welcomed. Then I had a teeth cleaning with Clare, she did a great job!
All staff I have met so far have been lovely.
Highly recommended! I would be back if I need it
