Complete Care for Your Smile’s Foundation

Caring for your smile naturally means brushing your teeth and taking steps to avoid cavities. But because your teeth are the most visible part of your smile, it’s all too easy to focus all your attention on keeping them looking bright and healthy while forgetting about other important areas.

Of course, your smile is not just your teeth. Your gums and jaws are the bedrock of your smile. Without their support, your teeth wouldn’t stay in position

Gum disease harms your smile’s foundation, and the early signs are often the hardest to detect. That’s why we provide periodontal care services to improve your smile’s overall health

Our advanced, non-surgical periodontal therapy is performed by Mohsin Mughal, an experienced hygienist with a Master’s in advanced periodontal management. In addition to his work at Oak Lodge, Mohsin also lectures on this type of dental care.

Understanding Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, affects nearly half of UK adults over 30. It begins quietly with gingivitis (gum inflammation) and can progress to more serious forms that may affect the bones supporting your teeth. Early signs include:

Bleeding when brushing or flossing
Red, swollen, or tender gums
Bad breath that won’t go away
Receding gums
Loose teeth or changes in how your teeth fit together

Comprehensive Assessment

We begin with a thorough examination of your gum health, using the latest diagnostic tools to measure gum pockets and assess bone levels. This helps us create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Deep Cleaning and Root Planing

Using advanced instruments and techniques, we carefully remove harmful bacteria and tartar from above and below the gum line. This specialised cleaning reaches areas that regular brushing and flossing cannot access.

Em Anderson

I had Profhilo treatment with Dr Tercan. She explained the procedure fully, was gentle and put me at ease from the moment I walked in. My skin is glowing and l look refreshed. I’ll definitely be back!

Helen Breen

An all round excellent experience. Dr Tergan put me completely at ease and explained what she was doing throughout. The crown looks amazing!

James Torrance

I am the biggest baby when it comes to the dentist so having to have a filling is a bit of a stress for me. That being said Dr Tercan had the whole procedure as pleasant as possible. Explaining the process, being patient with me and doing what she could to help. Would recommend to absolutely everyone.

Dan Sweeney

Amazing friendly efficient service from Dr Marinho my new lovely dentist today in having a replacement filling – thank you ! The professionalism is superb including attention to detail with hi tech imagery of the process and explanations of what will happen, what is happening and what happened. Put me so much at ease I nodded off – very skilled, calm and patient. Dentistry with passion professionalism and polite banter too – highly recommended! Shout out to Debbie too the amazing lovely assistant and all the team at Oak Lodge Dental! Thanks

Lucie Mark

I’ve had a fairly complex on-going infection and root canal issue that required a fair amount of work, which came with a large amount of anxiety from me. From the moment I met Mr Patel he put me at total ease, Mr Patel explained my treatment plan in terms which I could easily understand, he explained the risks and was extremely reassuring, kind and patient with me before, during and following my treatment. The care and support I’ve received from Mr Patel, the nurses and the staff at Oak Lodge has been outstanding. Thank you for saving my tooth and looking after me so well during the process.

Linda Fielder

I see Dr Gurpreet Tiwana as my regular dentist and always get on v well. Earlier this month I saw Dr Minesh Patel for some specialist root canal treatment; he is honestly the nicest dentist I have ever had – shook my hand at the beginning and end of treatment, introduced himself, explained what he was going to do, all the way through treatment he checked whether I was ok and explained what he was going to do next etc, so so gentle and kind. I would totally recommend Oak Lodge Dental – the reception staff are always welcoming and very good at communication – overall an excellent dental practise.

Jamie O’Donnell

I just had a complex root canal surgery, which went very well. Minesh and Hannah were excellent, and took very good care of me. Minesh is very knowlegable and skilled, took time to explain the procedure to me in detail (both before and during the procedure), went to great lenghts on attention to detail and (hopefully) saved my tooth. I am very happy to recommend Minesh.

Margaret Dennis

I had an appointment on 11th October to discuss having an implant fitted. I was apprehensive, but I needn’t have been. Dr Gurman Sond was the kindest of people who made you feel very at ease. Everything was explained in detail as to what it all entailed. I had a CT scan to ensure all was ok to fit an implant. All my questions were answered. The lovely part is that I have no fears about going back for the procedure. Thank you so much.
