Information we may collect

Depending on your interactions with us, we may collect your name and contact details; appointment and communication information; and health information relevant to your care, such as your health and dental history, symptoms and treatment information. If you use the website contact form, we collect the name, phone number, email address and message you submit. If you contact us by phone or email, we collect the information you choose to provide.

Please avoid including sensitive health details in a general website enquiry unless they are needed for us to respond. We can discuss care-related information through the appropriate channels when you contact the practice.

How we use information

We use information to provide and coordinate dental care; manage appointments; respond to enquiries and communicate with patients; handle billing, payments, claims and practice administration; and meet applicable legal and professional obligations.

When information may be shared

We may share relevant information where reasonably necessary to provide your care or operate the practice, including with your treating dental and other health professionals, dental laboratories, insurers or claims processors, and service providers supporting our IT, website, email and administrative services. We may also disclose information where required or authorised by law or needed to meet professional obligations.

Protecting your information

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

Website services
