A dentist on screen, whenever you need one

Sometimes you do not need a full appointment — you need a quick, trustworthy answer. Is this worth worrying about? Can it wait until next week? What should I do tonight? Teledentistry gives you direct access to a registered SmileRover dentist by secure video, so you can ask those questions, show us the problem on camera, and walk away with a clear plan, all without leaving home.

Real advice from a real dentist

A video consult is a genuine clinical conversation, not a chatbot or a call centre. You speak face to face with one of our dentists, describe what is going on, and use your phone camera to show the tooth or area causing concern. We assess what we can see, ask the right questions, and give you honest, plain-language advice about what is happening and what to do next. For many everyday worries, that conversation is all you need.

Teledentistry is especially valuable for triage. If your problem can wait, we will reassure you and tell you what to watch for. If it needs hands-on care, we will tell you that too — and we can often book you straight onto the next SmileRover visit in your area or arrange an emergency call-out, so nothing is delayed by uncertainty.

When a video consult is the right call

• Deciding whether a niggle or sensitivity needs urgent attention
• Reviewing how healing is going after a procedure
• Getting advice on a child's wobbly tooth or a knock to the mouth
• Discussing treatment options and questions before you commit
• Reaching a dentist when you are remote, housebound or short on time

Care without the barriers

For people in remote communities, parents juggling small children, shift workers, and anyone who finds getting to a clinic difficult, teledentistry is a genuine lifeline. It costs less than an in-person visit, fits into a lunch break, and connects you with professional dental advice in minutes rather than days. It also helps you avoid unnecessary trips — saving you time and money when an in-person visit simply is not needed.

Whatever is on your mind, you do not have to guess. Book a secure video consult and get a clear, caring answer from a dentist who is genuinely on your side.
