Over time your teeth can require restorative treatment. With the appropriate treatment plan, significant decay, trauma, discolouration, injury and aesthetic improvement is achievable.
Following our reopening plans where we prioritised those patients with a dental emergency and those in pain, we are now pleased to be able to provide routine dentistry to all patients.
EXTENDED OPENING: SATURDAY APPOINTMENTS
Due to the current guidelines in place to keep staff and patients as safe as possible during dental treatment, we are able to see less patients during our usual opening hours.
We have therefore extended our opening hours to offer appointments on Saturdays between 8am – 2pm, starting on 4 July 2020.
If you would like to book an appointment for a routine check-up or new patient examination, please call 01428 723179.
OUR NEW PATIENT JOURNEY
To ensure the safety of staff and patients, we have made significant changes to our already very robust practice procedures. For details of our new patient journey and what you can expect during your next visit to Oak Lodge, please click here.

Over time your teeth can require restorative treatment. With the appropriate treatment plan, significant decay, trauma, discolouration, injury and aesthetic improvement is achievable.
The crown of the tooth is the part which is visible in your mouth. We can provide you with new porcelain covers for damaged teeth or aesthetic reasons, to dramatically improve the look of your smile.
Each crown is carefully made, specifically for you, to look natural and blend with your surrounding teeth.
Crowns have a number of benefits:
Our talented team has many years’ experience of guiding patients through the process of designing and fitting perfectly natural looking crowns to blend in with your existing teeth.
Root canal treatment is often the most feared dental treatment. However, the treatment is often a tooth-saver and can mean the retention of your natural teeth, or the instant relief from acute dental pain due to infection.
Your teeth are held into your jaw by their roots. Front teeth normally have one root, but the bigger teeth further back have more. At the core of the tooth is a soft mass of tissue called the pulp. The pulp may become inflamed or may die if there is significant decay in a tooth, if there is a large restoration (filling or crown) or if the tooth has been subjected to trauma. Decay or injury can damage the pulp, which can lead to an abscess and severe toothache.
Root canal treatment (also known as endodontics) is a great way of preserving teeth by removing damaged or dead pulp and filling the space at the centre of the tooth. This may take a couple of appointments, however the happy end result is that root fillings have a fantastic success rate and can last many years.
'Very friendly and professional almost made having a filling a pleasure.'
