Dentist Near Ravelston: A Mile From Ravelston

Q: What's the easiest way to reach you from Ravelston without a car?

Walking or cycling is often simplest. The 38 bus is the one to take: alight beside Comely Bank Cemetery, on Crewe Road South, and you're roughly 10 minutes on foot from the practice. Look up the times before you set off.

Q: Can I get a second opinion on a plan from another dentist?

Yes, and it's free. Bring the plan or quote and any X-rays, and a dentist will tell you honestly what they'd do and what it would cost. If the question is about implants or bone, a CT scan is £160.

Q: I need several teeth replaced. Where do I start?

With a free full-arch consultation, which includes your CT scan. Dr Davinder Kalsi goes through whether implants, an implant-retained denture or one of our three All-on-4 packages (from £12,500 per arch) suits you, and you go away with the plan and its fee in writing.

From Ravelston, Comely Bank Dental is a mile or so to the north-east, at 3 Comely Bank Road. Adults and children are seen privately, for everything from a dental examination and hygiene visit to implants and Invisalign.
