Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Our Service
We hope that you will be entirely satisfied with both the dental treatment and service you receive from us. If, for any reason, you are not happy then please contact the practice manager in the first instance. Cork City Dental takes all complaints seriously and will ensure that any are handled in accordance with its complaints procedure.
Cancellations and Missed Appointments
We know your time is valuable, and ours is too. Please be aware of our cancellation policy for all appointments.
- When you book an appointment, your dentist reserves that time especially for you.
- This is why we kindly ask you to please provide at least 24 hours’ notice should you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.
- This allows us time to offer your slot to someone else who needs it, and minimises disruption to patients and staff alike.
- You can cancel your appointment by phone or email.
- The first time you miss an appointment or fail to cancel with at least 24 hours’ notice, you will be notified, reminded of our policy, and advised that any further instances will incur a charge.
- For all 2nd and subsequent breaches of our cancellation policy, a charge from €120 per hour for missed appointments will be applied to your account.
- In addition, you may have to wait several weeks before we can see you again, depending on availability.
- If you have missed a first appointment or have not notified us of a delay, you may be asked to pay a deposit to secure a further appointment.
- The deposit amount can vary depending on the type of the treatment/appointment length, but the amount is fully redeemable against the cost of the treatment.
- In the case of a breach of the cancellation policy while a deposit is held, the deposit will be retained.
