At Long Lane Dental, we offer treatments to keep your smile healthy and bright, from routine care to advanced cosmetic solutions.
View Our TreatmentsIf you’re experiencing discomfort, swelling, or sensitivity, or you’ve been advised to consider a root canal, book a consultation and we’ll assess the tooth, explain your options clearly, and help you choose the most comfortable, healthy way forward.
To us, restorative treatment is about more than simply fixing a problem; it’s about protecting comfort, confidence and quality of life.
We combine technology, skill and compassion so treatment feels reassuring, calm and purposeful.
Visiting the dentist often raises questions. Here are some common ones at Long Lane Dental, and our team is always happy to help.
No, with modern techniques and effective anaesthesia, treatment is designed to be comfortable and controlled. Many patients say it feels similar to having a filling.
Extraction may solve the problem short-term, but it can lead to bone loss, tooth movement and bite changes. Saving the tooth where possible is usually healthier and more predictable.
Not always, but teeth that have had root canal treatment can be weaker or more brittle, so a crown is often recommended to protect against cracks or fractures.
Infection can spread, pain may worsen, and an abscess can form, often leading to tooth loss or wider complications. Root canal treatment removes infection and preserves the tooth.
Very rarely, infection can return. If this happens, we may discuss re-treatment or referral to a specialist endodontist.
This depends on the tooth and complexity; some cases are completed in one appointment, while others may require two.
