Patient Information
Everything you need
to know
Welcome to The Big Grin! This page is your go-to guide for understanding what to expect before, during, and after your treatment. Whether you’re visiting us for the first time or coming in for a follow-up, we’ll make sure you feel informed, supported, and comfortable every step of the way.
Treatment process
Your first visit is where your journey begins. During this initial consultation, we’ll talk about what’s concerning you and discuss the treatment options available. This first consultation is completely free, giving you a chance to meet our team and see if we’re the right fit for you. From there we will make a treatment plan based around your oral health care needs.
You can reach out to us online or give us a call, and one of our friendly team members will arrange a time for you to visit either our main clinic in Christchurch or one of our local satellite practices.
Our goal is to help you feel confident about your care and make sure you’re starting your smile journey in the right place.
Payment plans
We offer flexible payment options to suit your treatment plan. Talk to our team about our payment plans and start your journey to your best smile.
