Ocean Drive Dental Care, Edinburgh

Amazing how dentist have advanced. I've always had a phobia with dentists based on old experiences. So bitting the bullit I went to Ocean Drive Dental Care for scale and polish and 7 fillings. I met the dentist and assistant both made me very relaxed. Explained the various treatment available. After an hours treatment i was glad to say it was pain free, they were very patient. Big thanks to friendly understanding staff cheers JP.

Hi I Have been a patient at ocean drive for over 5 years and the last time the service was excellent. Very happy with everything they done to me and I wish them all the best.

I have been a patient at Ocean Drive for over a year now and the service provided has been excellent. I have had 4 implants inserted; which at first had me very nervous but after I met the team I felt extremely excited about the prospect of having teeth again! My initial consultation was great -I was greeted by the full team that would be working on my teeth, the clinic was extremely clean and I felt comfortable about the whole procedure, after surgery the dentist gave his personal mobile number and phoned me throughout the week which is rare! - usually you never speak to your dentist for months at a time. I now have time booked with an orthopaedic dentist to raise my gums and then I will return to Ocean Drive to have the final part of my plan completed.

I genuinely can't talk highly enough of my dentist and his team, they are a credit to the whole industry.

Thanks Ocean Drive.

Simply the best care and professionalism you can get. Always let you know what treatment is needed and even shows you what is wrong by the use of cameras. Never had a problem with the dentist and have always appreciated the work that I have needed done. Would recommend anyone to get any of their dental treatment done withthe person I dealt with.

In general I don't like going to the dentist, as like many. I underwent Dental Implant Treatment on my front tooth, and had a Cerec Crown with Root Canal Treatment on my back tooth with Dr Bashir. Both treatments were successful and I was very satisfied with the end result. My smile is very important to me so I was a bit apprehensive having treatment. However Dr Bashir and his assistant Gosia who is a qualified dental nurse and dental technician were very friendly and informative throughout the whole treatment.

I feel Dr Bashir comes with a wealth of knowledge and I found him to have very high clinical skill sets, which he has empowered his support staff with. My complete treatment was pain free, which delighted me.

The practice is well maintained and All staff members are very competent, both treatments were done to a high standard and I believe I will have both Implant and Cerec crown for the next couple of decades at the very least. I would highly recommend this dental practice to my friends and family, or anyone with a dental phobia like myself.

Getting implants done.. never knew it would be so painless!! Dr.Bashir is the best dentist who makes you feel so comfortable.. I would recommend this practise to all!!

Excellent service if you chose private. I have no issues with my teeth, I just like a check up to keep them healthy (only required a tiny filling and a scale and polish and possible information about a future implant). Excellent options and services offered after my first consultation, until I choose NHS treatment. I felt weird, neglected, and treated like a 'sheep' (...next!).

Recently, I've been treated by one Dr  and 'Because of her' I've recommended and registered someone else here. All the respect for her, she's trying to help more, I think, because of others attitude. She was very nice and professional.

Just not trying to be too paranoid, but it is possible in the first consultation the xray not to work (which is meant to be free) and than to be introduced in the following treatment cost list (that wasn't for me)? Whatever... I just want to change it now... Best of luck

The dentists themselves are fine.. However they are the car salesmen of the dentist world! Dentists aren't allowed to give recommendations... They refer you to their sales women who insists you go private over NHS, even for simple work! More money making than patient care beware!!!!

Every visit I've made to Ocean Drive has been a pleasure and I find myself laughing as I write that about a Dentist!! The service I've received has always been extremely professional and being a bit of a wimp, I've always really appreciated the warmth and understanding of the staff.

Making an appointment is always fast and efficient without the usual ignorant and prying attitude shown by so many healthcare receptions. The ladies on the phone and front desk are efficient, helpful and most of all friendly.

I had to have an emergency procedure and everyone from the lovely ladies on reception to the dentist herself made me feel important and well taken care of. The procedure was done with the utmost care and professionalism with really great results.

The teeth whitening service in particular is excellent and really good value and I received lots of great feedback.

Even if I wasn't an NHS patient I would definitely pay privately to visit Ocean Drive, I really can't say enough good things about them.

I went to this clinic on recommendation of a good friend. Having not seen a dentist for 10 years, I was in pain, they accomodated an appointment the next morning. I was impressed that I got a text message as confirmation, the dentist was very nice and extremely efficient, my pain went within hours.

Then I was given all kinds of options, and asked what is important for me.

It is the most efficient, modern and friendly dentist I ever saw.
