Q: How does it all work?
Discover how The Sparkle Fairy brings dental hygiene care directly to you. No more missing work or dealing with kids at the dental practice. We offer flexible appointments at your home or preferred location, tailored to your schedule. Just reach out to us via email or phone, and we'll arrange a convenient appointment. For new patients, there's a short online form to fill out before we visit your home with all the necessary equipment.
Q: What happens during my appointment?
Once we arrive at your chosen location, we'll start with a relaxed chat to understand your needs. We'll ask about your previous dental exams and any specific concerns. Then, we'll conduct a thorough oral health check, followed by scaling and polishing to remove bacteria and promote gum health. Afterward, we'll guide you on effective oral hygiene practices for maintaining healthy gums, including toothbrush routines, interdental brushes and flossing.
Q: When you come to my property, do I have to come out to the van or do you come into my home?
Our mobile service is conducted inside your home. We bring our equipment in and set up in an area where you feel most comfortable, such as the kitchen, dining room, or living room.
Q: Do I need to have anything ready or provide anything when you come for my appointment?
All we need from you is your completed new patient form (for the first appointment only) and access to a plug socket. We'll take care of the rest.
Q: Where will I sit during the appointment?
We bring a reclining dental chair with us, providing a comfortable seating arrangement for you during the appointment.
Q: Will I receive the same standard of care as I would in a dental practice?
Absolutely! We take pride in delivering the highest standard of care, matching that of a dental practice. Our dedicated approach allows us to spend the necessary time with each patient, ensuring top-quality treatment without rushing.
Q: How can I pay for my appointment?
You can conveniently pay in cash on the day or opt for an emailed invoice, which enables you to make a bank transfer. Bank transfer payments are due within 48 hours following your appointment.
Q: Do you offer discounts for multiple bookings?
No, we do not offer discounts for multiple bookings. Our prices are reflective of the comprehensive treatment carried out on each individual patient. Each treatment is tailored to the specific needs of the patient, ensuring the highest standard of care.
