As you are aware, we are in the middle of a serious pandemic. The Government issued a directive on Friday 20th March 2020 that dental practices are no longer allowed to offer routine dental appointments. Consequently, Oak Lodge Dental Practice will be closed for all but emergency appointments with immediate effect. We will contact you to reschedule your appointment when we are able to reopen.
EMERGENCY CARE ONLY
At Oak Lodge we will continue to provide emergency treatment by appointment for all patients providing that you feel well, do not have a temperature and are not self-isolating. Please contact the practice on 01428 723179 to let us know if you have a dental emergency and we will advise on next steps.
WHAT IS CONSIDERED EMERGENCY DENTAL CARE?
If you are in pain, have swelling or dental trauma such as loss of teeth, you may require emergency dental care. Please call us in the first instance and we will assess your need on the telephone, 01428 723179.
If you do require emergency treatment, we will adhere to strict infection control guidelines as always and will ask you to allow us to take your temperature on arrival as a sensible precaution.
THANK YOU
We thank all of our patients for their support and understanding at this time. We look forward to welcoming back all our patients when this time of uncertainty has passed and will keep our website updated as things change. If you need to contact us for any other reason, please email smile@oaklodgedental.co.uk.
I wish you all good health, peace and happiness.

Oak Lodge Dental
At Oak Lodge Dental we focus on the absolute value of preventive dentistry.
We believe nothing is as reliable, or as strong as your natural teeth and aim to help our patients retain their natural teeth for as long as is feasible.
Maintaining regular dental check-ups is vital to the ongoing health of your natural dentition and our dentists will work closely with you to help you achieve and maintain a healthy mouth and teeth.
A dental exam may seem like a quick check of your teeth, but your clinician has an important list of areas to assess and care for during your appointment.
Among other things, during your routine examination your dentist will:
The high value we place on trust and honesty means that you can rest assured that we will make all diagnoses and recommendations with your best interests at heart.
We also understand that many of our patients are nervous, or dental-phobic. All of our clinicians and staff are highly trained in ensuring that your care is delivered empathetically, that you feel you are in control and feel comfortable and informed throughout.
