Since acquiring East Craigs Dental Clinic two years ago, Scottish Dental Care has committed £100k towards a series of infrastructure and technology improvements.
The practice has remained fully operational throughout the phased works, ensuring patients continued to receive care with minimal disruption.
With the latest phase of investment completed, patients and staff are benefitting from a transformed clinic.
Philip Friel, co-founder and director of dentistry at Scottish Dental Care, said, “We are committed to continually investing in our clinics to ensure we provide the highest standard of dental care for our patients.
“This latest investment has enhanced both our facilities and treatment options. Alongside modernised patient areas and a new clinical room, we have introduced state-of-the-art digital scanning technology and upgraded essential equipment, ensuring our team can deliver the very best in dental care.
“Expanding our capacity by adding a new surgery and welcoming a sixth dentist strengthens our ability to provide accessible, high-quality treatment.
“By embracing the latest innovations and growing our team, we are further improving the patient experience at every stage of their journey.”
As part of the improvements, a fifth surgery room has been introduced, increasing capacity. This follows the build out of a new sanitisation suite and a refreshed waiting area.
Additionally, state-of-the-art dental chairs have replaced ageing models and there has been a move to digital radiography. The practice has also introduced the latest digital intraoral scanning technology, reducing the need for traditional dental impressions in most restorative treatments.
Alongside these facility improvements, the East Craigs team has also welcomed new dentist, Amna Sajad, who brings valuable experience in treating patients of all ages, including those with anxiety, disabilities, and learning needs. She has a particular interest in paediatrics and restorative dentistry, further strengthening the clinic’s expertise.
Roddy Little, lead clinician at East Craigs Dental Clinic, said, “Our commitment to delivering excellent care has always been our priority. Ongoing investment allows us to enhance our facilities, upgrade essential equipment, and introduce cutting-edge digital scanning technology.
“With these improvements, we are proud to offer an even better experience to our patients, ensuring they receive the highest standard of care.”
