Dr. Leonie Clark

Dentist ~ B.D.S

I never thought when I started studying dentistry over 30 years ago, what a challenging and enjoyable career I had chosen. I love the challenges that new technology brings and I am very proud that I have been able to develop many of my young staff into capable dental professionals.

I enjoy mentoring and training and particularly love the advantages that technology brings. Being able to finally replace teeth in a more biocompatible way and “put back” the tooth that has been lost makes my dental day.

Talking to people and helping them achieve their dental health goals makes this job even more worthwhile!

Highest Standards of Dentistry

Smilemakers provide the highest quality dentistry techniques currently available. These include not only the provision of treatment but also education on how to care for your teeth, as the care that you do at home is as important as the quality of the dental work done in our surgery.

Our staff will always assist the patient to make the treatment phase of the work as painless and comfortable as is possible.

Pop in anytime and say hello and discover more about our professional Dental Services.

We focus on your comfort & welfare. Smilemakers is an aspirational practice with a caring dental practice with a high focus on client comfort and welfare.
