Our 5-year guarantee includes any fracture of crown, onlay, veneer, bridge and restoration work (unless otherwise stated), but it does not include any failure due to an underlying tooth fracture, secondary tooth decay, grinding, trauma or accidental damage, fracture caused by inappropriate use (e.g. opening bottles) or de-bonding (loosening) or subsequent need for root canal treatment. It is not given on buccal (side restorations) as these tend to debond over time, depending on your tooth brushing strength & technique and Occlusal scheme (bite type).Our 5-year guarantee includes any fracture of crown, onlay, veneer, bridge and restoration work (unless otherwise stated), but it does not include any failure due to an underlying tooth fracture, secondary tooth decay, grinding, trauma or accidental damage, fracture caused by inappropriate use (e.g. opening bottles) or de-bonding (loosening) or subsequent need for root canal treatment.

Extent of the Treatment Guarantee:
The guarantee applies to a dental treatment restoration under normal conditions of use and covers breaks, loosening, cracking and discolouration.In this case, we will restore, repair or change any restoration free of charge.
The Guarantee will be invalidated if:
- Oral hygiene is neglected
- Dentist instructions are not followed
- You do not attend the practice for regular check-ups and hygiene visits at least twice per year
- The gum tissue or tooth bone is naturally reducing
- Damage caused by accident, sports or any other third party injury
- Damage caused by occlusal (bite) load, bruxism or grinding
- Discolouration caused by underlying nerve damage
- Smoking or drugs abuse
- Account for the treatment has not been settled
The Guarantee will be invalidated if:
- Allergies, illnesses and their relative consequences after treatment which were not noticeable before treatment started
- Damage due to dental restoration carried out by any other person (e.g. a dentist, dental technician) who is not a team member of our practice
- Temporary dentures, crowns or bridges
- Bone grafting procedures (bone block, bone augmentation, sinus lift, bone from hip)
- Teeth-whitening procedure after the treatment
- Inappropriate selection of the colour and shape of the dental work by the patient (during the preparation period, patients are given the opportunity to choose what they want but we cannot take responsibility for the decision of the patient)
- Root canal treatment can have an increased failure rate due to microscopic bacteria or lateral canals for which a guarantee cannot be given.
Please note, that if a recently treated tooth subsequently causes a problem (that was not seen during the diagnosis, X-ray or consultation) Smile Cliniq does not take any responsibility for the need for additional treatment (including root canal treatment). We will do everything to ensure the final, corrective treatment is carried out, but this shall be administered at the patient’s expense. This particularly happens with treatments such as deep fillings or crown work, where bacteria has infiltrated the nerve and a subsequent root canal treatment is necessary.
