    I'll also recommend Anthony James at Portobello High St.

    I go to Meadowbank Dental Practice in Earlston Place and I think they're great. I get really nervous as well but I've never had any problems and they are always helpful and friendly.

    I had an appointment a few days ago and there was definitely a sign up saying 'new NHS patients welcome'.

    I use meadowbank too, after a decade of dental avoidance because I was scared. I've needed loads of work and the dentist has been really good with me. Not too much more travelling for you either as it's just up the road from Craigentinny

    I use a NHS dentist on Portobello High Street. There are quite a few NHS dentists down there. Details below. I use Anthony and find him very good and never given me any pain. Have had a few extractions before and been okay.

    We used to go to Anthony James. Good for adults but not so good for children - a bit lazy and no remedial work.

    Brighton Place Dental Surgery

    Address: Dental Surgery, 14 Brighton Place, Portobello, Edinburgh, EH15 1LJ

    Not too far from the Craigentinny practice and registering new NHS patients at the moment.

    I can't recommend Goldenacre Dental Practice highly enough. I've been going there for years. They are patient, kind and would completely put you at your ease. I've had lots of work done and never felt pain once! They have a NHS welcome sign up so I'm sure you would get an appointment no problem. Their number is 552 4024.

    I totally agree with you. I was terrified when I first went there after a 7 year break from dentists but now I don't mind going at all. I can honestly say even when I have had some fillings I have had no pain.
    My dentist is lovely!

    I love MSE
  • Please could you be more specific about your dentist? Are you able to give his/her name, sex, approximate age and general manner? I am looking for an NHS dentist after my fab dentist of 30 years retired. I am a nervous patient and think he will be a hard act to follow. Thank you for your help.

    I recommended the Brighton Place dental practice, see a nice young chap by the name of Anthony. By young I mean around 30 years old, very soft gentle type, I used to be nervous of going and scared of the drill and to have other treatments but after being with them for a couple of years I no longer have an issue with it.

    Quoted from my previous posting:
