Your Missing Tooth Options in a Nutshell

We champion dental implants as the premium tooth replacement treatment. At Lakewood Dental, we work only with leading implant brands, including Straumann, Nobel Biocare, and Southern. These brands are backed by countless clinical studies and research.

Your Treatment Journey

Firstly, well done for taking the big step to seek treatment for missing teeth.

We know it’s a big deal, and we applaud you for wanting to protect your oral health.

Your journey with us starts by attending a no-obligation consultation. We will explore your expectations and ask you some questions about your medical background.

We will discuss the different options available to you, citing the limitations and benefits of each.

We will be transparent about any potential complications of treatment once we have examined your teeth and taken clinical photographs and dental X-rays.

You can then begin your treatment for dental bridges, dentures, or dental implants.

Our Promise

When you choose Lakewood Dental for tooth replacement solutions, you are putting your oral care in the hands of professionals who truly love what they do. We love the care and marriage of science and craftsmanship that accompanies the planning and placing of dental implants.

We believe in continuously finding treatment methods that make life easier for our patients. Ultimately, making our patients happy is the foundation of what we do and why we do what we do.

FAQs

Why should I replace missing teeth?

We recommend starting the process towards replacing a missing tooth as soon as you can after a tooth has failed.

Time is of the essence when it comes to tooth replacement, and seeking to do this right away will help you avoid problems such as:

Jawbone recession.
Changes to your facial structure (hollowing of the cheeks and sagging skin in this area).
Gum irritation.
Healthy teeth moving into the vacant gap left behind in the gum.

Tooth replacement is a fantastic investment and the earlier you elect to go forward with it, the less risk there is of struggling with the dental concerns above.

Is replacing missing teeth expensive?

Giving our patients choice is one of our guiding philosophies as a dental practice. We offer restorations that vary in price to ensure cost isn’t a barrier to entry for replacing missing teeth.

From dentures and bridges to implant-supported restorations, we have something for everyone. We also offer 0% finance if you would like to pay for your treatment in instalments.

I’m nervous about seeing a dentist– can you help?

Here at Lakewood Dental, we have fostered a tranquil practice environment. We truly love our work, and one of our biggest successes as team has been helping nervous patients build confidence, and to find a route to treatment.

Together, we’ve got this.

Extremely please with Lakewood Dental, I was a patient with the previous Dentist for many years, obviously a bit hesitant when it was taken over, as a very nervous patient.But on my first appointment with Dr Need Patel, he made me feel very at ease, listen to what I had to say, assured me about my nerves, I’ve been to see him now three or four times, & very happy each time with my outcome, in a short space of time Dr Need as helped me with my fears & given me confidence..The whole surgery’s is being refurbished, which it really needed.I would recommend this dental surgery to anyone, from a very happy patient..

Updated 12/03/25 - I also wanted to mention the Hygienist Cleo. She has cleaned my teeth twice now and was also very welcoming and made me feel at ease. Great, thorough clean both times and also gave me tips on cleaning. Highly recommend Lakewood Dental Practice!I had a really awful experience with my previous dentist a couple of years ago so I was very anxious for my first appointment at Lakewood. However, the staff were welcoming and Dr Neel Patel made me feel at ease and talked me through my treatment plan. I had another appointment this evening and again everything was explained to me clearly and so that i could understand! Honestly cannot recommend this practice enough!

Staff are very knowledgeable and nice to deal with. My gum infection is healing nicely. Pleased with results so far. Was in a lot of pain due to infection in the gums before coming here but worth the money getting it sorted out.

I had the most pleasurable experience having a filling done, I was made to feel so comfortable by Nadia. I had headphones and a tv to take my mind of off what was being done. I cannot recommend enough. Also, My son has started the process of having Invisalign, and the work that has gone into this process in just one visit is amazing. He cannot wait to have them.Lastly, Cleo the hygienist has been so amazing and patient, I have never been to a hygienist before so my teeth were not as clean as I originally thought, but they certainly are now, after just one visit with her, I now have minimal bleeding from my gums. Where as before it was A LOT every-time I brushed.Thank you all of you, weirdly I look forward to coming back to the dentist.

What a amazing experience, I couldn't be happier!I was recommended to Dr. Nadia by my daughter who had a good experience. I had a broken front tooth which was causing me pain and stopping me from smiling. Nadia stopped the pain and rebuild my tooth with a crown and it looks better than it did before. She got this done for me all before Christmas. I have my confidence back and feel I can enjoy Christmas with my grandchildren. The reception team were lovely and the practice is so modern. I will be recommending Lakewood Dental to all family in Sutton, Wallington and Beddington.

Dr. Neel and Dr. Nadia are both exceptionally skilled dentists who consistently go above and beyond for their patients. I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with Dr. Neel on numerous cases over the years, and the outcomes have always been excellent. As a patient, you’re in trusted hands, and as a referring dentist, you can be confident that your patients will receive the highest level of care.

I can’t recommend Lakewood dental enough, the staff are very welcoming and friendly.I saw Cleo Clay for my hygiene visit and was so impressed with how professional and thorough she is, Cleo explained step by step and I felt at ease straight away which is amazing because usually I can feel anxious.She was so gentle it was the most comfortable hygiene visit I have ever had, I highly recommend!

Exceptional Dental Care!I recently visited Lakewood Dental, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! From the friendly welcome to the professionalism of the entire team, I felt at ease right away. Dr. Neel is fantastic—thorough, kind, and great at explaining each step of the treatment so that I knew exactly what to expect.The practice itself is clean and modern, and it’s clear they’re using the latest technology to make everything as comfortable as possible. I was a little nervous about my procedure, but it was surprisingly quick and pain-free.If you’re looking for a great dentist in Carshalton or Sutton, I highly recommend Lakewood Dental! They handle everything from hygiene cleanings to more complex treatments, and I always feel I’m in good hands here. My teeth feel amazing, and I’m so grateful for the care I received. Thank you, Lakewood Dental team!

Wow, This is how to do dentistry!Managed to get booked in with Neel the same day due to a cancellation. He was so professional, gentle and extremely informative. He took the time to explain every procedure, and I love that they use modern technology and equipment, allowing everything to be explained clearly on a screen.I've had a badly done filling for around 10 years that I have just put up with, but as Neel specialises in restorative dentistry, he fixed it perfectly, and now I don't have to carry around floss with me everywhere I go!I watched Netflix throughout the procedure, and before I knew it, it was over. Pain free and very relaxed.Also had a full scale and polish with the hygienist who again was so gentle and professional.You have a great team, and I'm so happy that I made the switch to this dentist that my wife has done the same.Thanks again guys, and will see you in 6 months!

16:32 29 Sep 24

I’ve always been so scared to go to the dentist all my life. I can happily say that has finally changed! Dr. Nadia was so kind, gentle and thorough at my check up and even did a filling for me and it was the best experience I’ve ever had at the dentist. I felt no pain at all and it was so nice to watch tv while I was having my treatment done, it completely relaxed me.I also saw Cleo for a hygienist appointment, she was amazing and my teeth are the cleanest they’ve ever been! Every one of the team were so nice to me knowing how anxious I was. I would recommend all my friends and family :)

I was seen by DR Neel, who did a ceramic filling for my tooth.I was attended professionally and was shown my teeth x ray where I was given advice and choice for my treatment.I felt comfortable throughout the whole process and I would highly recommend his service to others.DR Nadia attended my hygienist needs and she made sure I was comfortable throughout the process.

I have been visiting this dental practice since I moved to London. Having been under a few others due to moving, this is by far the most professional and welcoming! I actually enjoy going for my check ups now!I've been seen by both Nadia and Neel for treatments and they both put my mind at rest as I am quite a nervous patient. I've had multiple dental check ups and treatments, including Botox in my jaw which Nadia suggested as I have an issue with clenching which caused me many headaches - now fully resolved!!! (I also have a phobia of needles and she is really great at accommodating that)!!If you're thinking about switching dentists or moving to the area then I 100% recommend Lakewood Dental Carshalton!!!

Highly recommend! Lovely practice and friendly, helpful staff. I hate dentist appointments but Dr Nadia went above and beyond to make me feel very comfortable and ease my fears. So nice to find a dentist I don’t dread visiting. Thank you! :)

I had a root canal routine and rebuild of a molar tooth. The process was done over two sessions and was timely and professionally done. The key thing for me was the advice beforehand on options available to me and the respective pros and cons. This was really important to me, and Dr Patel and the Lakewood team were excellent throughout.

I have always felt self-conscious about my teeth due to an accident I had when I was younger, which left me with fillings that discoloured over time and caused gum recession and sensitivity. For years, I struggled to find a dentist willing to take on my case, and as a result, I hadn’t been able to smile comfortably for over a decade.That all changed when I visited Lakewood Dental and saw Nadia. From the start, she put all my fears at ease and was incredibly thorough, taking numerous photos to ensure the new crowns matched my teeth perfectly. The attention to detail and care he took throughout the entire process was exceptional.I am beyond thrilled with the results—my new crowns look amazing, and for the first time in years, I feel confident in my smile. I can’t thank Nadia and the team at Lakewood Dental enough for giving me back something so important. I truly feel like a new person! 🥹

Having not been to the dentist for over a year I made my appointment. I had lost a large filling and thought I would lose the tooth it’s a new dentist at the surgery as my old one retired what a pleasure it was a complete transformation of the old surgery all modern and up to date had my examination and was talked through all what could be done and to my joy I was able to keep the tooth so pleased I went .I would have no hesitation in recommending this practice to friends& family first class treatment and a first class dentist and one very happy patient 😀

I recently visited Lakewood Dental and saw Dr. Nadia for a check-up, and I can't recommend her enough! I was quite anxious as I hadn't been to the dentist in a while, but Dr. Nadia made me feel calm and at ease right away. She conducted a very thorough check-up, explaining everything clearly with detailed photos and X-rays.In addition to the dental care, Dr. Nadia also provided Botox treatment for my jaw, which has made a huge difference in relieving my discomfort. Her gentle approach and expertise were truly impressive.If you're looking for a caring and professional dentist in Carshalton who also offers Botox, I highly recommend Lakewood Dental and Dr. Nadia. The entire experience was excellent from start to finish!

I recently visited Lakewood Dental in Sutton and was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The cleanliness of the clinic is outstanding; everything is spotless and well-maintained, which immediately put me at ease.I underwent Invisalign treatment and couldn't be happier with the results. The process was smooth, and the team was supportive every step of the way. Additionally, I had composite bonding done, which has significantly improved my smile. The attention to detail and the professionalism of the staff are remarkable. I highly recommend Lakewood Dental for anyone seeking top-notch dental care in a clean and welcoming environment.

I have been a patient of the practice since I was a child. I recently saw Dr Neel for a checkup and was so impressed by his approach and communication style. The appearance of my teeth have bothered me for years but the old dentist didn’t offer cosmetic dentistry. We went through all my options with my budget. I selected ultra thin porcelain veneers and have just had them fitted and they look incredible. I have a new sense of confidence I could never have imagined. Thank you again Neel, I will be recommending all my friends and family!Ps. The new treatment room looks incredible and dental chair is so comfortable, can’t wait to see what other plans you have for the practice!

I had unfortunately chipped my 2 front teeth and was extremely worried of how to go about getting it sorted. I was recommended to go to lakewood dental, and they did not disappoint. Dr Neel Patel, made me feel instantly at easy about the whole process, it was fixed quickly and for a very reasonable price, I am over the moon, with the results! Thanks to everyone at the team, I couldn’t be happier.

Amazing! I went to the practice for the first time as my friends have had their anti wrinkle Botox done by Nadia and recommended her.I’m so impressed with the results, I look 10 years younger!!I’m quite nervous about injections but she was so kind and gentle, I didn’t feel a thing!!I would recommend all of my friends and family to Lakewood Dental, the whole team is amazing!

I’ve had a few treatments at this surgery, Mr Patel is very gentle and reassuring. He explained everything to me before he started and then advised me of on going treatment and aftercare.My whole experience at the surgery was painless and relaxed , I would definitely recommend it, especially if you are a bit nervous of going to the dentist .

I’ve been a patient of the old practice for 30 years and was with the old dentist.I saw Neel for a checkup for the first time and I was blown away by his modern, informative approach.He went into detail about my X-rays and showed me pictures of my teeth I have never seen before. I had a white filling done by him and it was painless! He has a high attention to detail and you can really see he’s passionate about what he does. I will be recommending him to all my family and friends.

I JUST FELL ASLEEP!Dr Neel Patel has been doing my dentistry for the past 6 months approximately; He is absolutely the best dentist I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Dr Patel is amazing at what he does and the level of comfort I feel when in his practice is absolutely incredible, as I have just came out of my appointment not even an hour ago, I'm still with no pain and I even feel asleep in his chair!I recommend every person I speak with to come here as he is truly kind, understanding and a brilliant dentist.All his staff there are really friendly and helpful. Will always recommend!

I like most people have a fear of the dentists and unfortunately I have left it for way to long to deal with issues with my teeth.I found myself in a position where I needed to go to the dentist so I booked a appointment with my my previous dentist only to find he had retired and the practice had been taken over buy a gentleman called Neel. I can honestly say I felt at ease from the very beginning he has carried out a number of procedures extremely well where no pain what so ever was involved.If you are nervous about the dentist I highly recommend using Neel his is absolutely superb he has conquered my fears.Ian Brain

I’ve had an excellent service at this dental surgery. The staff are friendly, helpful and flexible. I was able to get an emergency appointment on the same day when needed recently. Dr Patel made me feel at ease and was able to provide a solution which was clearly explained. He was very thorough in all aspects of my experience from the consultation through to the after care. I’ve been very impressed by the results of the treatment.

Alexandra Adkins

I’m a nervous patient and have had some unpleasant dental experiences. Dr Neel Patel is so nice and welcoming. He explained all my treatment in an understandable way and made me feel very comfortable. He’s the best at giving an injection too! The rest of the team are so nice too.

The Lakewood Dental Surgery staff are very polite and welcoming. Dr Neel Patel was very informative about my teeth and gave great advice on how I can improve the care of them. The surgery also sends out a confirmation email a couple of days before and calls the day before the appointment for as a reminder, which is good.

Can not give enough praise to Lakewood Dental.All staff have shown respect an professionalism from start to finish. Mr Patel, not only did a first class job but even took the time to explain each part of my treatment. Many thanks to you all, a great team.

The new dentist is the first dentist, in my nearly 60 years, that I feel comfortable seeing.Being on the autistic spectrum, I find having people close to me difficult.The dentist explained clearly everything he was going to do, and made me feel calm.The dental nurse, and receptionist were nice as well.I had 4 appointments, to get the work done, and have made a reminder to go back in 6 months.I would recommend this dental practice.

Dave Matthews

17:28 12 Jan 24

Many Thanks.From start to finish Neel and his team have been brilliant.I required some extensive works that were completed very soon after my initial assessment and i would absolutely recommend Lakewood Dental Surgery.Not only a great professional service but also provided great advice and reassurance.So much so that I even managed to fall asleep during a root canal procedure. 😀Thanks againDave Matthews
