This is probably the best dental clinic in the world. My partner has already had a new smile, which she is completely satisfied with. She inspired me to also have my teeth beautified by Doctor Cara. The result is absolutely brilliant. The whole team, from reception to the assistants, are extremely friendly and you feel that you are in very good hands here. The clinic has the most modern infrastructure.

I am usually anxious about going to the dentist, but I still decided to get a dental cleaning, a check-up, and a bleaching treatment. At first, I didn’t fully understand why everything was necessary for the bleaching, even though the receptionist explained it to me.

Now that I’ve had the treatment, I have to say—it was the best experience I’ve ever had. Not only is the clinic stunning, but the professionalism and the way they treat you are outstanding. The dentist was with me for the entire three-hour session; he never left me alone. First, he explained everything he was going to do, step by step. He used equipment and techniques I had never seen before, not even in Switzerland or Germany.

The check-up was not just a quick look at my teeth—it was incredibly thorough. They took pictures, X-rays, and close-up scans. They explained everything in detail, going through each tooth one by one, showing me what was good and what needed attention. Their level of professionalism is truly remarkable.

The staff is super friendly and prepared for everything. The whole experience was incredible—highly professional, beautifully executed, and absolutely worth every penny. I would do it again without hesitation. Five stars aren’t enough to describe how amazing this place is. I would recommend it to everyone—just outstanding!

Five-star service represents exceptional, consistently flawless customer service that anticipates needs, exceeds expectations, and leaves a lasting positive impression. It's about going above and beyond to ensure customers feel valued and satisfied.

Nothing is truer from the moment you walk through the doors and are greeted by the amazing front desk staff and made to feel so welcome. The team at OptiSmile is nothing but professional, patient and a team of incredible and warming people.

Dr Cara is so professional and guided me throughout the whole process and procedure. Dr Cara uncovered other areas where attention was needed and plans were put together that made me leave with a big smile.

Thank you OptiSmile for the experience and for being an exceptional team.

The best experience I’ve had a dentist so far! Dr Cara was very kind and did the most exceptional job on my crown; and Dr Ruan did an amazing job on my root canal. His gentle, warm nature really put me at
ease. The experience was pain free, very
professional and it’s clear both doctors are very knowledgeable and skilled. The cost was worth the level of expertise and exceptional service. The hours these doctors work are very long and yet they have always given 100% at every appointment.
Appreciate them both immensely!

I've been going to Optismile for many years, and at this point would trust nobody else with my teeth! I've never been anything but extremely happy with work done, and beyond that the team obviously really cares about their customers happiness.

On the admin side booking or changes are always smooth and friendly.

I have had a lot of significant dental work done by a variety of dentists in the United States, Mexico and at OptiSmile. OptiSmile is clearly superior in every respect. With costs as they are in the United States, it is only slightly more expensive to fly to Cape Town and it is well worth it.

The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and I truly appreciate that the dentist is always on time – no long waits here!

Dr. Ruan Scheepers is top-notch – professional, thorough, and genuinely cares about his patients' comfort and well-being. I highly recommend OptiSmile to anyone looking for exceptional dental care!

I had an outstanding experience with OptiSmile! The personal service I received from Verona and Dr. Clifford was truly exceptional. From start to finish, my Invisalign journey was far better than I could have ever expected. Their knowledge and expertise ensured that I had complete confidence in the process—there was never a moment of uncertainty.

The team at OptiSmile is incredibly professional, well-informed, and genuinely cares about their patients. I’ve already recommended them to friends and family and will continue to do so. Thank you, Dr. Clifford, Verona, and the entire OptiSmile team, for making this such a smooth and positive experience!

Dr. Clifford is amazing! I came from the states to do injection molded bonding. I also had my teeth cleaned and whitened. The whole team is friendly, the office is beautiful, and the result is better than I could have imagined. Thank you so much to Dr. Clifford and team 🙌🏼 Highly highly recommend

Bettie C.
Pure magic. That is my experience Dr Clifford Yudelman and Siwe his assistant saving a most important tooth today. Without one moment of fearing the usual anxiety a visit to a dentist meant in my young days. None of the "what-ifs" that could happen during a 2 hour long reparation of a cracked tooth with ancient silver filling from long ago. None of the fear of what could happen should I not be able to swallow and saliva could smother me in the upside down position in a dentists chair! Not once did I experience that anxiety with Siwe sucking all my fear away. And then watching the artist/computer geek, Dr Clifford creating a new ceramic tooth, as if creating a 3D sculpture in photoshop! Then sending his design via internet to a machine that carves my new ceramic tooth as I watch it happening!
Thank you Team Clifford/Siwe for what is not the regular "dentist-fear but an experience of wonder at modern technology performed by Magicians.

The team at optismile has changed the way I look at dentistry. I use to fear going to the dentist, they make you feel so comfortable and welcomed.
They are not just your regular “reactive” dentist, a full assessment prior to your consult ensures a proactive approach to your dental health.
All the expertise you need in one place.
I now smile with confidence thanks to them!!
Friendly professional service.
I cannot recommend them enough.
The only thing I regret is not getting to them earlier.

I could not recommend Optismile enough! The reception staff are always so friendly & helpful, the practice environment is so clean & beautiful with amazing views, and the dental experts are, in my opinion, absolutely world class! I switched to Optismile when I wasn't happy with what was supposed to be the end result of my Invisalign treatment with another provider... Dr Smeyatsky was phenomenal, and he immediately understood why I wasn't yet satisfied & made a plan for me. The final result was exactly what I had always envisioned! Upon his advice, I also had some composite bonding done on two of my teeth after my treatment, which elevated my smile even further, while still looking natural & not giving that "overly done" look. Optismile has given me so much confidence in my smile. I'm so happy I chose this practice & every year without fail when I visit home from the UK, I go back for oral hygiene & a dental check-up to maintain the smile I now have. Every visit continues to be a delight!

Hallo zusammen ,
Ich war im Dezember in Kapstadt im Urlaub als ich dummerweise über Nacht heftige Zahnschmerzen bekam. Die Praxis in Seapoint wurde mir von Freunden empfohlen und ich habe sofort einen Termin bekommen. Das ganze Team hat sich super um mich gekümmert und Dr. Ruan ist ein super einfühlsamer Arzt der sich viel Zeit nimmt und alles genau mit mir besprochen hat.
Auch nach der Behandlung wurde sich noch des Öfteren per WhatsApp nach meinem Wohlbefinden informiert.
Ich kann die Praxis nur empfehlen !!!
Liebes OptiSmile Team : nochmal vielen vielen Dank für eure schnelle Hilfe. Macht weiter so . Ihr seid einfach super !!
Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland. Melanie

I met Dr Clifford with the dream of having a beautiful smile that I wouldn't be ashamed anymore, as well as fixing few issues. Very quickly, within the first appointment, he had my trust. Despite being scared of not looking like me anymore, he and his team made sure that I was looked after during the few weeks leading to the big day. Now, after working on more than 8 teeth, doing the bonding, I have so happy and can't stop smiling!!! He gave me back my confidence and I also feel more confident that the issues I had, are now dealt with. All without damaging or removing any of my teeth. I am very grateful and can't recommend them all enough!!!!!

For the first time in my life I have a smile to be proud of!

Working with OptiSmile over the past 7 months has been nothing short of incredible. The entire team is warm, welcoming and they take the time to make sure the plan they create is suited to your goals. In just 7 months I have gone from having chipped, yellow and misaligned teeth to a clean white smile!

A special thank you to both Dr Harris and Dr Cara. Dr Harris was responsible for getting my teeth into the correct positions and Dr Cara is an artist for what she has done to create my smile! I will be eternally grateful to both, and the entire team for what they have achieved.

If you are looking for a highly skilled and passionate team to help you get the smile you've always wanted, OptiSmile is the way to go.

What Is Injection Moulded Composite Bonding?

Process for Injection Moulded Composite Bonding

Scanning with iTero: We start by taking detailed digital pictures of your teeth. It’s quick, precise, and comfortable, leaving behind those messy traditional impressions.


Designing with ExoCAD: Next, we use top-notch software to design a smile that fits you perfectly. It’s all about ensuring your new teeth look natural and feel great.

Creating the Perfect Fit with Exaclear: We make a unique mould that matches your new tooth design. Consider it a perfect guide to ensure everything fits just right.

Isolate, Etch Teeth, and Apply Bonding Compound: We carefully prepare your teeth so the new material will stick firmly. It’s all about setting the stage for a lasting and beautiful smile.

Injecting the Composite: Your new teeth are crafted by injecting a unique material into the mould. It’s like filling a jelly mould but with high-tech precision!

 

Ensuring a Perfect Fit: We ensure the material fits snugly into the mould, providing a perfect replica of your planned smile.

 

Turning Liquid into Solid: A special light is used to harden the material, turning it into a solid tooth-like form. It’s a vital step in making your new teeth strong and ready for action.

Polishing and Shaping: Your new teeth are perfectly shaped and polished. It’s like the final touch on a masterpiece, ensuring they blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Benefits of The Injection Moulding Technique

One of the most revolutionary advancements in dentistry is the use of injection moulded composite. This leading-edge technology offers several unique benefits:
  1. Precision and Aesthetics: The composite material blends into the tooth’s colour, maintaining a natural appearance. Planning before whitening ensures a flawless colour match.
  2. Versatility: Suitable for almost all patients, including younger ones wishing to avoid unnecessary removal of healthy tooth structure. Whether restoring a single tooth or multiple teeth, this technique offers ultimate flexibility. Uniform thickness ensures optimal adaptation on the tooth surface.
  3. Conservation of Tooth Structure: This method preserves healthy tooth structure, requiring minimal preparation compared to other restorative techniques. This is particularly valuable for patients wanting to maintain as much of their natural tooth as possible.
  4. Predictable and Efficient Technique: The technique allows accurate placement and shaping of the injectable material, saving the dentist and patient time.
  5. Maintenance and Durability: Our material is highly polishable, reducing discolouration. Regular maintenance may be necessary, and protective measures such as a bite plate or occlusal guard are advisable for those who grind their teeth.

What Can Injection Moulding Be Used For?

Injection Moulding for Dental Veneers

Dental veneers, thin shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance, have also benefited from the advancements in injection moulding techniques. Traditionally, veneers are crafted from porcelain or composite resin materials. However, injection moulded composite bonding (often referred to as composite veneers) presents a leading alternative. This method involves creating a digital design of the veneer, which is then accurately brought to life using a mould. The flowable ceramic composite is injected into this mould, ensuring an impeccable fit and natural appearance.

Injection Moulding for Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is an innovative technique that employs the precision of injection moulding to restore or enhance the appearance of teeth seamlessly. In this method, a technician digitally designs the ideal tooth shape and anatomy, which is then precisely replicated onto the tooth. We’ll fix the space between the teeth using specially crafted moulds and the new design is filled with a flowable ceramic composite material.
