Bridge Dental Care

About

Bridge Dental Care in Tranent offers both NHS and private dentistry, aiming to give patients access to the best of both options. All patients are eligible to join an NHS practice irrespective of income, and NHS/private exams are described as being completed to high standards, including x-rays if required, soft tissue checks and oral cancer checks. When treatment is needed, the practice says it will explain all available options so patients can make an informed choice. For those who want additional private care, Bridge Dental Care also offers membership plans through Lothian Independent Dental Practitioners, with a monthly fee tailored to individual needs. The practice follows the principles of Realistic Dentistry, encouraging patients to be involved in decisions about their oral health, and it aims to create a relaxed, friendly environment. Parents are specifically invited to bring children, with the practice hoping visits are “fun and interactive” and noting that dental nurses are extremely friendly and approachable. Patient feedback highlights that staff take time to talk and explain what is happening, helping children feel relaxed for check-ups.
