Mr. Steven initially opened his Edinburgh dental practice way back in 1998, on Chester Street. It operated as a single-handed surgery, with only one chair available.
Fortunately, much has changed since then. As the need for quality dentistry grew in Edinburgh, so did Mr. Steven’s practice, and in 2004 the current practice was purchased. Just one short year later the surgery was expanded to a purpose-built, three-surgery practice.
The Stuart Steven Dental Practice quickly began to make a positive name for itself in the world of Edinburgh dentistry, and in 2011 a further surgery was added to the practice. Mr. Steven also invested heavily in cutting-edge dental equipment, adding enhanced sterilisation facilities and a state-of-the-art x-ray suite.
These ongoing improvements have helped place the Stuart Steven Dental Practice at the gold standard for equipment and facilities and allowed Mr. Steven to set himself apart as a premium, trusted dentist in Edinburgh.

Been attending Stuart's practice since his days in Chester Street. Excellent service and staff always very friendly. I've just completed a course of implant work (seven in all) and the procedure, treatment and aftercare were second to none, but glad it's all over lol. Looking forward to returning to 6 monthly check ups. Thanks again to Stuart and the Team.
Never liked going too the dentist but now it's a breeze , professional and friendly . Had 5 teeth out never felt a thing . Robbie Rocks !!!!
Been with these guys 7 years from the staff to the reminder texts, this is a fantastic practice
I have to say that after 10 days the implant bridge is a great success. It is fabulous to be without the denture.
I am delighted with the whole treatment. I was made fully aware of all the options for my mouth and the costs involved with detailed explanations of all the stages.
A big thank you to all.
I recently joined Stuart's practice in May and can honestly say that I am extremely impressed! The whole team are friendly, professional, knowledgeable and have all the modern equipment. Stuart carried out some cosmetic work on my front teeth including a front crown and white filling to close the gap that had gradually developed over the years. I could not have expected a better result! I have my smile back, which to me is priceless. Massive thanks to Stuart (and the team) for doing such a great job. Lisa-Ann
