Edinburgh Dental Specialists
Established in 1994, Edinburgh Dental Specialists is a multidisciplinary Specialist referral centre located in the heart of Scotland's historic capital. We do our utmost to make you feel welcome, relaxed and fully informed, and we hope this brochure will provide you with helpful information at our private dentist in Edinburgh.

We would like to emphasise that we are always happy to answer any questions you may have, however small, at any stage of your enquiry, the referral process or during treatment at our dentist in Edinburgh. The majority of our patients are referred to us by their trusted family Dentist or Doctor, in the same way that GPs refer patients to hospital when they require specialist medical or surgical treatment.
Services
At Edinburgh Dental Specialists we have a huge amount of collective knowledge and experience gained by our Specialist Clinicians from all over the world. That experience is invaluable in providing the highest standards of clinical care and treatment. All our colleagues are selected for their dedication to the pursuit of excellence and their passion for superb patient care, not to mention their expertise.
Edinburgh Dental Specialists was established in 1994 by Kevin Lochhead. His aim was to create a multi-disciplinary referral only practice and over the years he has built up an outstanding team of clinicians from around the world. All of our internationally renowned clinicians have been granted permission by the GDC or GMC, or have a specialist application pending, to officially use the title 'specialist'.
Thanks to the technological advancement of the Telecoms Industry, products such as the iPhone have now made the impossible possible. Using their mobile phone, dentists are now able to quickly take a photo of a particular case or x-ray and e-mail it directly to tele-dentist@edinburghdentist.com and get a 2nd opinion from one of our Clinicians within hours.
10/10 so relevant and enjoyable like sitting at the coffee bar listening to your favourite experts discussing a subject relevant to you - and one can chip in with a question. Really like these formats, very personal. I could easily spend another thirty minutes and it would go quickly, learning something new each time.
We care passionately about providing the very best service for patients referred to us. We are also proud of the investments we have made to improve these services & how they will enhance the experience of visiting our practice. Our investment in customer care extends to every area of our facility.

I first visited Edinburgh Dental Specialists almost 8 years ago to find out the options for sorting my dental problems (which were quite numerous!). Since then I have had several implants which have made a massive difference to my quality of life. I have been treated with such kindness and understanding from day one, and always felt completely comfortable and well looked after. I would definitely recommend EDS.

I was told by my St Andrews dentist that Gillian the implant surgeon at Edinburgh Dental Specialists was excellent and this proved to be the case. I couldn't fault her nor the rest of the team from Dr Campbell, Chelsea the bubbly dental nurse to the receptionists.
My surgery was pain free and diligently carried out by Gillian who inspired me with absolute confidence in what was quite a difficult procedure all said, as the bone base was quite narrow.
This is truly an excellent outfit at work here and I would highly recommend them.

I had a root canal done recently by Dr. Kate and her team. All I can say is this: It was the best dental surgery experience I've ever had, and I've had my share. Novacaine shot? Never even felt it. The procedure was done flawlessly. Wonderful people. Talented. Professional. Plus, when you're done you can eat next door at Zara- lovely mediterraean food. Makes the whole visit complete. Why not enjoy yourself!!

I have a fear of the dentist and when I was told I needed to have 2 of my wisdom teeth taken out I wasn’t looking forward to it.
I was referred to Edinburgh Dental Specialist from my own dentist.
The whole process from start to finish was excellent. Dr Lello was great and the nursing staff were amazing on the day of my procedure. The aftercare by Chelsea the dental nurse was great. Very reassuring having someone there to ask any questions that I had about after my procedure.

Recently had root canal treatment carried out by Carol Tait. An incredibly positive experience from start to finish. Atmosphere on entering surgery is very relaxing and staff all lovely. The state of the art dental equipment plus Carol's extensive endodontist expertise made what can often be a traumatic procedure into a very acceptable and uneventful experience. Would highly recommend for root canal treatment. Thank you Carol. 🙏
