Appointment Cancellation Policy

  • We require a minimum of 48 hours' notice to cancel an appointment. Failure to give 48 hours' prior notice will incur a cancellation charge. The charge will be 50% of the treatment fee for an appointment booked with a dentist and 100% for the dental hygienist's appointments.

Failure to attend appointments will also incur the same charges.

Payments Policy

  • At your consultation appointment, should you decide to go ahead with treatment, a deposit will be required to secure the necessary subsequent appointments. This will be taken from your balance at your last appointment but will be forfeited should you fail to keep an appointment or cancel with less than 48 hours notice.
  • We require payment for all treatment on the day of the appointment. No further appointments will be made until outstanding balances are paid in full.
  • If you are having a treatment done that requires laboratory work i.e. crowns/dentures then FULL payment is required before the item is fitted.
