Although a double appointment with the Hygienist is not my idea of fun, Rihanna and her Assistant were as usual very pleasant and took care to carry out the various procedures with care and ensure my comfort and provide good advice for future dental hygiene. Inverleith Dental practice can be recommended for care. .

I had an excellent hygiene appointment today with Brianna and Peter.They were very professional and the level of cleaning was second to none. I appreciated the advice that was given at the end of the appointment regarding my at home care.Thanks!

I had a great experience at Inverleith Dentalcare. John McAleavey was very thorough during my check-up and used a camera system to create a 3D scan of my teeth, showing where plaque had built up, which was really helpful. Briana, the hygienist, did an excellent job, leaving my teeth feeling very clean. Overall, I was very pleased with the service and would recommend Inverleith Dentalcare, especially John and Briana.

I was able to secure an emergency appointment as a new patient and was impressed by the friendly and welcoming reception staff.

Really happy with this dental practice. Chris Fowles is an excellent dentist. He takes time to explain treatment and options and also explains what he is doing during check ups and treatments, so nothing comes as a surprise. Great for anxious patients. He also has a great sense of humour. Staff always really friendly and helpful.

I would very highly recommend the Inverleith Dental clinic. They are very professional and really knowledgeable. The admin staff is very helpful and will get you the information that you need to make a decision abo the best treatments you need. Dr. John McAleavy is excellent. He was also very knowledgeable about my TMJ issues and he was really understanding during the appointment and he sign posted me to the tools I needed; this made me feel that he cares about my progress and the best outcome for my case. Overall, I had a great experience and I can confidently say that will come back to Inverleith for any follow ups and future dental needs.

Could not ask for better treatment! Thank you so much for all your care, attention and kindness for my son Jay who is having treatment with Chris Fowles he has Cerebral palsy and cannot make it up the stairs so they use a room downstairs to support Jay, Chris has been so thoughtful and makes Jay feel at Ease and explains everything he is doing before he does it this really means a lot. Highly recommend to anyone.

I met with Dr John McAleavey as a new patient for a consultation about my complex dental health situation. I'm a nervous patient and was instantly at ease on entering the practice. John really listened to my background story and quickly spotted the source of my problems that had been missed by other dentists. My assessment was the most rigorous I've ever received, yet very gentle. John took the time to explain everything thoroughly and clearly. I left the practice with a sense of peace that I'd found the answers I'd been seeking, and confident I was in the hands of expert professionals. I'd recommend them to anyone.

I was anxious before my first appointment with Inverleith Dental - my dentist of 25 + years had retired and I needed a practice nearer home - but I should not have worried!The welcome from the receptionist was lovely - The initial conversation with the dentist was very helpful - I learned about the ethos of the practice and felt I was being listened to - in addition this chat took place before the mouth examination so I was not in the reclining position which can put the patient at a disadvantage!The receptionist was most helpful with my mobility problems on leavingThe beautiful Georgian building is a bonus

I found Inverleith Dentalcare as I needed emergency dental treatment. They were very accommodating and managed to allocate an appointment the next day. Their service is second to none with professional and caring staff, dentists take the time to explain the procedure to the patient, and use modern standard techniques, materials and treatments. Worth every recommendation.

Dr. Pedro Fiuza

Dentist

GDC No 139247

I qualified from the University of Lisbon in 2007. After one year of working in Portugal, I moved to Edinburgh, the city I’m proud to call home, where I have lived and worked ever since.

Over the years, I have devoted much to my training, attending several courses to improve my knowledge and skills. This enables me to deal comfortably with most treatments, from simple to complex aesthetic and restorative cases. I enjoy all aspects of dentistry, but I am particularly passionate about the art and science of “smile design”, biomimetic dentistry, a minimally invasive branch of dentistry that aims to save and maintain the natural tooth structure and clear aligner orthodontic therapy.

I take great pride in delivering high-quality care and will endeavour to make your dental visits as pleasant as possible. You can expect a friendly and honest approach with a complete explanation of treatment options and procedures so that you can make an informed decision about your treatment. My recommendations are always based on your individual goals and what is most clinically appropriate.

I look forward to meeting and getting to know you, and I hope to help address your dental concerns with a helping hand and a friendly smile.

Dentist Testimonial
“After years in mixed practice I was growing increasingly frustrated that I could not give my patients the dentistry I wanted to produce, day in day out. I enjoyed taking my time and providing high quality work as well as a wide array of cosmetic work.I felt I had to have the environment to do this all of the time in order to both care for both my own professional standard and for my patients alike.This is why I chose to look at fully private dentistry.Was I skilled enough? Could I meet the standard of care which often demand higher fee’s and higher expectations?That was the main reservation however I quickly realised that the quality of work is also coincidental with the time and care you can take with treatments. It has become so much more enjoyable doing the work which I would have previously thought was stressful. I now have sufficient time to provide bespoke plans and think through all my treatments in so much more detail – more importantly, comprehensively.  This of course means quality is higher and results are more predictable and patients are happier.
The rapport I was able to build with patients given the time I had to explain and educate their dental problems meant stress was massively reduced when discussing treatments. This is huge. This rapport and trust mean expectations are realistic and so treatments become easier, less stressful.I have more time and the best materials to ensure I mitigate against any pitfalls and difficulties.The support from all the staff is always exemplary, the values we share as a team are widespread throughout and are always incumbent in everything we do. The support means we can express our personal interests in dentistry into the work we do. A focus on quality rather than quantity and an environment and network of support to allow me to focus on areas of dentistry which internet me most.I mention income last. I have seen my income almost double within my first year in private practice. This is not because I am doing more or carrying out expensive treatment plans. This is only because of the support and personal development and time which has enabled me to be rewarded with appropriate fees. With the enjoyment of my dentistry now, the reduced stress and vision for the future, the finances have become far less important than they were when I was on the treadmill of high volume, high stress dentistry previously.”Dr Omar AliAssociate @ Inverleith Dentalcare

Dr Neeraj Puri

Dentist

GDC No: 71646

I qualified from the University of Glasgow in 1996 and work between Integrated Dentalcare and Inverleith Dentalcare.


Dentistry can be a daunting and stressful experience for many people. They want to feel trust and have the opportunity to discuss their concerns and needs without feeling rushed. It is important that we recognise that we are treating people not teeth. This is what I excel at.


I have over 20 years experience, supporting clients who are looking to have their amalgam fillings replaced safely by non-mercury based options as part of this I work with numerous therapists who support patients on their detox journey.


With over fifteen years experience in the replacement of missing teeth with metal free zirconia and high grade titanium dental implants. I have helped many clients regain their confidence with a natural smile as well as allowing better mastication. This can be from the replacement of one tooth to a whole upper and lower jaw.
Dentistry is an exciting field with constant advances and technologies to make your visits more comfortable and your results more impactful. We are fortunate to work in practices that constantly invest in equipment; materials and experienced team members to help you achieve a longer lasting beautiful smile.

My other passions away from dentistry are cycling and landscape photography.
