Dr Beryl J. Smith
“It’s not just about treating dental issues, but about getting to know the people behind the smiles and building lifelong relationships. From vacations and milestones in life to engagements and weddings, I’m grateful to be a part of our patient’s lives.”
Dr Beryl is constantly striving to revolutionise dental experiences for all patients because she truly understands patient fears and concerns from her own childhood experience. She chose subjects at school aiming at a career in the healthcare industry. It was dentistry that truly inspired her and during her matric year she had the opportunity to work for a dentist gaining experience in all aspects of running a dental office.
She studied at The University of the Witwatersrand and obtained her Bachelor of Dental Science Degree in 1995. While working as a locum dentist she was offered an opportunity to acquire the practice of a dentist emigrating to Australia. After several years of growing the practice, she enrolled in the post-graduate program in Implantology at Stellenbosch University. After 3 years of studying and working she graduated Cum Laude and established “The Tooth Fairy Dental Studio”.
Her practice mission, driven by her love for learning, innovation, technology and connection, offers a wide range of dental treatment modalities in house to ensure that all her patients receive holistic care to address every need with a solutions driven mindset. Communication, care, consideration, empathy, integrity are all central to the treatment of all patients in her care.
Dr Beryl strives to make sure every patient feels comfortable and that their concerns are heard and understood. She believes that excellent communication and trust are the first steps in providing the highest quality dental care for her patients.
Creating deep interpersonal relationships formed from three decades of exceptional patient centred approach to dental care has created a large following of loyal patients.
