About the clinic

Expert Dental Care
Dr. Ashley Chisholm leads the aesthetic treatments at the clinic. Dr. Chisholm is an aesthetic and restorative dentist who earned a Master's degree from the University of Edinburgh. To refine skills in composite bonding, Dr. Chisholm studied various techniques with specialists around the world. This international training helps Dr. Chisholm create natural-looking results through advanced layering methods.
The Composite Veneer Process
The treatment starts with a digital consultation and a 3D smile design. Patients can see a prototype of their new smile and evaluate it before the actual work begins. The dentist uses a 3Shape 3D scanner to take digital impressions. This removes the need for messy traditional moulds. Once the design is ready, the doctor follows these steps:
- Preparation: The dentist cleans and prepares the surface of the natural tooth.
- Application: A special tooth-colored resin is applied and shaped by hand.
- Hardening: The dentist uses a curing light to harden the material instantly.
- Polishing: The final veneer is polished to match the natural shine of surrounding teeth.
Treatment Benefits and Recovery
Composite bonding is a minimally invasive option for smile enhancement. It requires no downtime, meaning patients can return to their daily routine right after the appointment. The results are immediate and can last for a long time with proper oral hygiene. This method is often chosen to correct minor dental flaws without removing much of the natural tooth structure. If you are interested in a smile transformation, you can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss your options.

Dr. Ashley Chisholm focuses on aesthetic dentistry and restorative techniques. Dr. Katie McDonald-Meyer manages the pediatric department. She holds a Postgraduate Certificate in Paediatric Dentistry with Distinction from UCL Eastman.

Pediatric Dentistry
Dr. Katie McDonald-Meyer provides dental care for children and adolescents. The practice emphasizes prevention and behavior management during visits. Consultations for young patients cover several areas:
- Teething and wobbly tooth guidance
- Playful brushing techniques
- Thumb-sucking cessation support
- Fluoride application and habit building
The pediatric team builds confidence through gentle guidance. This approach helps reduce dental phobia from the first childhood visit.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
Chapter One Dental Clinic uses digital tools to plan and perform procedures. For implant planning, the team uses CBCT Vatech imaging. This technology provides 3D scans of the jaw and bone structure. The clinic also uses 3Shape 3D scanners for intraoral digital impressions. These scans replace traditional putty molds for aligners and restorative planning.
The clinic uses specific platforms for hygiene and accuracy:
- Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) with EMS Dental UK
- AQUACARE Airflow for gentle teeth cleaning
- Pearl AI software for diagnostic support
- Dentally software for digital record management
Guided Biofilm Therapy offers a modern approach to dental hygiene. It is more comfortable than traditional scaling.
Services for International Patients
The practice supports international families by keeping all digital scan records in one place. This reduces the need for repeated imaging. Clinicians conduct thorough consultations before starting complex restorative work. Digital workflows allow predictable planning, so patients traveling from outside Edinburgh can coordinate visits easily. All administration runs through secure digital platforms.
