The Smile Clinic Appointment Policy

The Smile Clinic is a management company working for its dentists. Patients will be allocated a specific dentist for their ongoing dental care and maintenance. At times other dentists may provide cover for annual leave but this will only be for emergencies only.

All administrative and staffing issues will be addressed by the company but any clinical concerns and queries will be forwarded to your dentist and will not be the responsibility of the company

Your appointment card will identify the name of your dentist. The staff will make every effort to ensure your appointments are allocated to the correct dentist.

Service standards and quality will be managed by The Smile Clinic and your patient liaison officer is Dr Chariwala.

Please provide an email address if you would like appointment reminders / access to our online portal, as we do not routinely provide text or phone service reminders.

Failure to attend or cancellation of more than one appointment may lead to removal of access to the clinic.

Failure to complete your initial course of treatment will not allow further appointments.
