Intellectual Property Rights.

The Site is expressly owned and operated by Smile White. Unless otherwise noted, the design and content features on the Site, including information and other materials, illustrations, product layout and design, icons, navigational buttons, images, artwork, graphics, photography, text, data, audio sound, software and the like, as well as the selection, assembly and arrangement thereof (the “Site Information”), are owned by Smile White or its affiliates or are licensed from third party service providers by Smile White. The Site, as a whole and in part, is protected by copyright, trademark, service mark, trade name, and other intellectual property and other proprietary rights, and all other applicable rights are reserved.

Purchases.

Despite the foregoing, to the extent this Site provides electronic commerce, such buying opportunities may be made available for individuals, so long as you are authorised to and are of legal age (18 years at the time of purchase). Your order is an offer to Smile White to buy the product(s) in your order. When you place an order to purchase a product from SmileWhite, you agree to be bound by the General Terms and Conditions and Terms of Trade which can be located here. We will send you an e-mail confirming receipt of your order and containing the details of your order (the "Appointment Confirmation E-mail"). The Appointment Confirmation E-mail is acknowledgement that we have received your order, and does not confirm acceptance of your offer to buy the product(s) ordered. We only accept your offer, and conclude the contract of sale for a product ordered by you, when you are booked in for your initial appointment with the Smile White partner dentist. We will then send you confirmation of your booking with your appointment date and time. This step officially begins your Smile White treatment (“Appointment Confirmation Email”). You consent to receive sales invoices electronically.

Availability of Dentists.

SmileWhite is not responsible for the availability of partner dentists. Smile White will make visible the locations of the partner dentist to the nearest postcode given by the customer. This will be made available via a dropdown menu on the website, listing all partner dentist locations. No further details of the partner dentist will be supplied to the customer. The partner dentist will contact the customer to book the initial consultation to begin the Smile White treatment. The partner dentist will then contact the customer to book in any subsequent appointments deemed necessary by the dentist. The partner dentist will contact the customer within 7-14 days of the initial appointment for fitting of Smile White trays. Contacting the partner dentist to make appointments pertaining to this Agreement, outside of these Terms, will be considered a breach of the Agreement.

Further Treatment.

Before completion of purchase, the customer agrees that Smile White Holdings Ltd is not responsible for any dental treatment required pre-whitening. The Smile White products are sold on the basis that the customer has a ‘healthy mouth’. If the partner dentist makes the decision that the customer needs further treatment prior to whitening, this will be at the cost of the customer and will be agreed between the customer and the partner dentist. The partner dentists do not operate under an NHS dental scheme and will charge patients on a private cost basis. Once the agreed dental work has been carried out by the partner dentist to achieve a ‘healthy mouth’, the measurements for the Smile White products can be released to the manufacturer and made to order for the customer.

Crowns, Veneers, Fillings and Other Dental Restorations.

Due to the nature of the whitening procedure provided by SmileWhite: crowns, veneers, fillings and other such like dental restorations will not whiten in the process. Smile White takes no responsibility for the difference in colour that customers may experience if they choose not to replace these at a separate cost pre-whitening.

Appointment Cancellation.

If a customer wishes to re-arrange an appointment with a partner dentist they may do so within 48 hours. The customer will need to arrange a subsequent appointment by contacting their partner dentist by telephone on the number provided to them at time of initial contact. They must also send their request in writing, via email, to the email address provided by the partner dentist at time of booking the initial appointment. Smile White will not be responsible for rescheduling further appointments between the customer and the partner dentist. The customer cannot cancel an appointment with a partner dentist and Smile White do not offer refunds on purchases due to change of mind. The customer has a period of 3 (three) months in which to re-arrange their initial appointment from the date of purchase, or forfeit the fee paid for the product. If the customer cancels any further appointments after the initial appointment with the partner dentist, the fee paid for the product will be forfeited.

Guarantees.

Dental treatments and products, including clear aligners, teeth whitening and retainers, do not guarantee that any intended results will actually be achieved. Due to the fact that orthodontics is not an exact science, you acknowledge that your dentist and Smile White have not and cannot make any guarantees or assurances concerning the outcome of your treatment. No assurances or guarantees of any kind have been made to me by Smile White, its representatives, successors, assigns, and agents concerning any specific outcome of your treatment. Refinement aligners or other procedures may be needed for which additional charges will apply.

After your clear aligner treatment, you will need retainers to preserve any results and prevent regression. Additional charges apply for all retainers.
