Services
Tooth whitening is a procedure which allows you to gently and safely lighten your teeth to improve your smile, removing tooth discolouration. At Oaklands we provide 'home teeth whitening' in Preston, which gives safe, long lasting results. Not many people know that it is illegal for anyone other than a dentist (or member of their team) to perform teeth whitening.
Invisalign is an alternative to conventional braces. Instead of metal braces, a series of clear, nearly invisible aligners are used to gradually straighten your teeth to create a smile, which you will be proud of. Oaklands Dental are a recognised provider of Invisalign in Preston. Each person must be assessed on an individual basis.
Air Polishing is a technique used by our Dental Hygienists to remove heavy staining from your teeth. A stream of air, water and Flash pearl polishing particles are sprayed over the tooth surfaces; this stream breaks down and removes staining and discolouration. In the past clinicians could only remove staining by scaling and polishing.
Veneers are ultra-thin layers of ceramic material made to fit over the front of your teeth in order to change their appearance. Veneers can be used to change the shape, alignment and colour of your teeth to improve your smile. Veneers can be a brilliant option for patients looking to reinvigorate their smiles and improve the overall appearance of their teeth.
Dental crowns or 'caps' are shells of material that can be placed over the remaining part of a prepared tooth in order to change its shape, size, colour or alignment. At Oaklands, many of the private crowns we place are made of reinforced ceramics, which are incredibly strong and are almost indistinguishable from natural teeth.

I was recommended this dentist by a doctor as my dentist retired and I suffer from dental anxiety due to several bad experiences in the past.
I went for a check up with Tom and his assistant they were very professional and understanding and took the time to listen to all my worries and were very reassuring which made me feel comfortable and positive.
My first appointment was with the hygienist, she was great and my teeth felt and looked much better.
Then I plucked up the courage to have a big filling removed and replaced. Wow Tom was amazing he did a really good job and I never felt a thing

I suffer with extreme anxiety and was due to have a tooth extraction, the build up to my appointment was horrendous, my dental nurse called me and was very understanding and did her best to assure me all will be ok on the day. Stella has been my dentist for 19 years now and I trust her completely, she took her time explaining the procedure, and was reassuring throughout. I was so thankful to her and the nurse, all went smoothly and if I ever needed any more teeth out I don't believe it would be half as bad as I originally thought. Big thanks to Stella and team!

They are very professional and caring people who put the patients first. What an incredible dental experience, the dentists as well as the staff are very friendly and very professional.
I will strongly recommend Dr Alex Lindfield as the most considerate and passionate.

After my original Dentist retired I really struggled with negative and disinterest replacement Dentist, so I did unfortunately neglect my gums and teeth, as a committed Denplan customer I really had no excuse.
So long story short I thank the Lord that I changed and found this Practice.
From the Receptionists, Hygienist and Dental Practitioner I have nothing but praise.
Tom was very empathetic and sympathetically honest.
I had vigorous Hygienist programme prescribed due too a mouthfull of veneers which I neglected.
And i now have a beautifull part new set of nashers ie a Veneer Bridge.

I have to say this is the best dentist experience I have ever had, right from the first appointment to the last treatment. Everything is explained in detail which makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. Tom and Jen seem to be very experienced and professional and you can tell they work really well together. 5 stars from me!

I have recently this year been visiting Oakland's Dental Surgery after moving away from the area and in need of treatment to replace a crown and various cosmetic issues I wanted to address. Thomas Gacesa was the dentist that carried out my dental work and I have to say he is the best dentist I have ever visited in all my 59 years of having teeth. I have never felt a needle injection or drill that he has used, he is that gentle. He always has time to listen to any questions or concerns you have and is never in a hurry to rush you out the door. I can not rate him more highly and would and have not

Great practice. Staff are always friendly & welcoming, and Tom himself is very professional and knowledgeable
Also enjoy the fact that you always get seen to on time, which I've found a real challenge at dentists in the past
