Explore the dental practice and the services on offer from the expert team at Hospital Lane.
At Hospital Lane, we offer the full range of dental services from simple family dentistry, check-ups, hygienists, all the way through to full mouth restorations, digital smile makeovers.
We are a specialist centre for all and four with Nobel BioCare, Invisalign and more traditional orthodontic treatments, alongside other services such as whitening and composite bonding.
Our multidisciplinary team can work together to provide a holistic treatment plan for you, using their expertise in their specific fields to get the outcome that you need.
We're also very fortunate to have a complete care pathway here for our patients, whereby a patient can come here in the morning, they can have optical and digital scans, as well as CT scans.
They can then have a smile design performed by the clinician and our on-site laboratory.
and they could have the surgery later on in the afternoon and they can actually leave with a temporary bridge in place.
We are very much an A-Z of dentistry here.
Hospital Lane is very much a centre of excellence.
We're very fortunate to have a very diverse team.
We have been established in some form for well over 100 years and there are lots of changes within the clinical landscape.
Hospital Lane is very much one of the few constants.
We're there to provide a complete care experience for our patients.
We are very fortunate at Hospital and Dental Clinic that we have put every specialist under one roof.
So we all perform a general checkup.
If we do spot problems that we can't deal with ourselves, we can refer to our colleagues at Hospital and Dental Clinic.
We've got people specialised in gum disease, we've got orthodontists here, we've got prosthodontists.
So we will normally do an internal referral and organise A consultation with a specialist at the practice.
We offer all forms of dental treatment for our patients, whether they are referred by clinicians,
whether they access their care directly, they can book online, they can call and book.
So some of our patients are referral-based and that comes directly from their general dental practitioner, but we do also accept self-referrals.
If they are being referred, then we do have a patient lead referral team that will aim to put them in with the best dentist to suit their needs.
The atmosphere at Hospital Lane Dental Clinic is really relaxed.
It's not like usual dental practices.
People don't initially think this is very clinical when they walk in.
The staff are really friendly and welcoming.
We are all accessible.
on the ground floor and we have a lift if they need to go upstairs.
The general feel is relaxed and secure and comforting for our patients.
Hospital Aid is able to offer a variety of payment options to make larger treatments more affordable and we offer group a smile plan,
alongside traditional pay-as-you-go services.
We also accept insurance customers, be that Bupa or other insurance providers.
Bupa Smile Plan is a monthly direct debit payment plan whereby the cost of your treatment for the year is broken down over 12 months and you pay it interest-free over that period.
Conveniently located on Bluebell Hill, adjacent to the M2 and M20 motorway junctions,
Hospital Ladies, the perfect solution to the smile you've always wanted.
General dentistry | Watch in 1:12 minutes
Find out what can you expect as a general dentistry patient from the expert team at Hospital Lane.
When patients come to see us for the first time, we would normally do a check-up and look at all the soft and hard tissues, the neck area, the joints.
We do a cancer screening as well.
And normally, if it's quite a simple treatment plan, we can issue the treatment plan straight away before you even leave the building.
For more complex cases, we may get you back and do a full case assessment and take a bit longer to get your treatment plan together.
So the key thing for regular check-ups is mainly about making sure that all the oral tissues are healthy and all the hard tissues are healthy.
So we look out for any sinister lesions, that's our main priority.
And then the rest is to allow you to get to optimum general health and maintain that.
And we try and give some advice with regards to that.
I give them a really comprehensive exam, take photographs, and then show them what's actually in their mouths.
And that way they can actually then have a joint decision-making process where we jointly look at the X-rays and the photographs, and then really come up with a plan which is tailored specifically for that individual.
Mohammad Abdel-Hadi | Watch in 0:52 minutes
Mohammad is a Specialist in Prosthodontics with the expertise to treat complex full mouth rehabilitations.
Hello, I'm Mohammed.
I'm one of the prosthodontists here at Hospital Lane.
I'm very fortunate to work here as a specialist prosthodontist whereby I can provide prosthetic care for my patients.
Prosthodontics is an arm of dentistry whereby we replace and repair badly broken down teeth.
The best thing about prosthodontics is you get to work with other aspects of the dental team.
I liaise very closely with the orthodontist, the periodontist, oral surgeons, as well as the implant dentist.
and that way our patients get the best possible outcomes.
Hospital Lane is very much a centre of excellence.
We're very fortunate to have a very diverse team.
We have been established for, in some form, for well over 100 years.
There are lots of changes within the clinical landscape, but Hospital Lane is very much one of the few constants.
We're there to provide a complete care experience for our patients.
