Time To Visit Your Dentist Again

Lifting of Government restrictions gives green light for people to see their dentist

You have probably already heard that Australia has been doing a great job of flattening the curve and the government has been able to lift several restrictions including those placed on dental practices.

We are pleased to be able to offer you a warm welcome back for all your dental treatment needs, including cleans, fillings, extractions, dentures, veneers, whitening, orthodontics, emergencies and smile makeovers, just to name a few.

Your oral health is always important, but we recognise that isolation and the economic impact of the pandemic has taken a toll on most of us. We understand it’s easy to let your good habits slip during stressful times, so don’t delay if you need to come in for your regular check-up or any other service. Plus, now is a great time for you to use your private health cover if you have not claimed dental in 2020.

To book your appointment please visit our website, give us a call on 5897 6453 or contact your specific clinic.

At Smile Place Dental we always pride ourselves on our high standard of patient care. In addition to our current exceptional infection control standards, our trained staff have implemented even stricter safety measures for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. We can’t wait to see you again, but if you’re feeling sick or experiencing any of the symptoms of COVID-19 please let us know, delay your visit, and take care of yourself first.

If you have any questions or concerns please get in touch by calling one of our clinics on the numbers below, also check out the information provided by the Australian Dental Association.
