During my vacation I had a small emergency. The team at Smith & Van Lierop Dentistry was amazing and super helpful. As a European/German I have to say, that the quality of treatment, equipment and customer service are well above what I'm used to. Would recommend this place to my friends and family at any time. Daniel McSurname
I am delighted with the expertise and warmth of this team. Thank you for the excellent outcome. 😀 Ann Lussi
Great practice: friendly and professional! Highly recommend. Jo Ackermann
5* experience! Dr Jean explained my treatments in detail, everyone at the practice was very friendly and professional. Frontdesk staff very friendly and organised. Would recommend to everyone! Jessy Severins
As someone who is terrified of a dentist I can honestly say I had the best experience. I saw Dr Jaco and the ammount of time he took to explain everything to me clearly was insane. My wife will also start using Smith and Van Lierop Dentistry after my experience here. 10/10 would recommend. Cheyne Geen
Exceptional service in a warm friendly and caring environment.
This practice stands out above the rest, not just for its use of state-of-the-art
technology, nor for its highly skilled professional dentists, nor for its friendly
supportive assistance, and exceptional receptionist. But how it manages to have all o
the above qualities and still create a warm, genuine and supportive environment.
A special thank you to Dr van Lierop and his team for the great work on last year's
root canal and recent exceptional restorative work on several teeth that prevent
another root canal

Drs Smith and Van Lierop are truly world-class top notch dentists! Very personable, knowledgeable, and friendly. I love the staff and can’t recommend this office enough! 5-stars :-) Miles Cone
Having just completed my last session to have some reconstructive work done on my
teeth, I am all smiles!
A big thank you to Sue, Caroline, Natalie, Benita and Dr. Meyer for exceptional
service and extremely effective treatment. I am well pleased with the outcome and fee
that the time and fees were a small price to pay for the final result.

Absolutely fantastic dental practice, cannot recommend it enough! Very professional, friendly atmosphere, and great customer service starting with the front desk, all the way to the hygienist, assistants and doctors themselves. Fully transparent, very comprehensive, flexible and attentive. We travelled from abroad to get our dental treatments done, including root canals and we were exceptionally happy to receive such a top notch quality of dental service. Kamila
A great experience all around. Very informative and comfortable experience. We will be back! Theodora Lee
Amazing dental experience, attention to detail. This team takes ownership and pride in their work and it shows. Rheinhardt Snyman
A route canal is usually anyone's worse nightmare, as one always expects a long and painful procedure.
Well,this was not my case.
Dr Sonia Britz and her assistant made me feel safe and comfortable, going as far as to gently rub my shoulder during those more unpleasant moments,giving that human touch that really makes a huge difference at the beginning of what is ,at first, a very stressful process.
I was very well taken care of,DR Britz was gentle and precise, I felt in good hands the whole time and the process was totally pain-free.
Soft music playing in the background helps to concentrate on something else ,everything is done for the patient to be comfortable .
This is definitely a person who is a doctor in the blood,Dr Britz passion and determination to help is astonishing and genuine, frankly it is rare to meet such a selfless professional so in tune with the situation.
My bad tooth has now become my best tooth and this experience will for ever remain an integral part of my every smile.
Thank you very much

A massive thank you to Emma King for the amazing work! Since moving to Cape Town I've been searching for a dental practice where I feel comfortable...that search is finally over! :p Thank you for walking me through the Zoom Whitening process. I'm extremely happy with the results and would definitely recommend it. Alex Becker
I had my zoom whitening done by Emma King at Dr Smith and Van lierop in December.
What a lovely experience, she was so pleasant and explained the whole process to me to make sure I understood what was being done. The results were absolutely amazing and best of all pain free.
Even played music in the back ground to relax you.
I wil definitely recommend her to friends and family

Special thanks to Emma King on her professional and great service. The Zoom Whitening treatment is very effective and definitely a confidence booster. Results are immediate and beautiful. Sasha-leigh Felix
in December 2021 i decided to invest in a Zoom Whitening treatment with Emma King at Jean van Lierop’s practice (he is my MOST amazing dentist!)
WOW what a wonderful person Emma is, great bedside manner and very professional service. she explained what she was doing every step of the way, and the results have been noticeable, whilst subtle (as it should be!)
i highly recommend her teeth whitening in Cape Town
Jennafire Cape Town
Absolutely incredible experience with Corne Smith, her bedside manner is so compassionate and caring and she used tools and tests I’ve never even seen in any other dentist before! I finally feel like I’m in good hands 🙌🏽 Sam Chambers
The male dentist Jean and his beautiful assistant showed me today how confidence in the art of dentistry should be done.
I went to a dentist for cosmetic work and she messed my teeth up so badly that i never thought anyone could fox it but Jean’s expertise, experience and competence was brilliant.
Thank you Jodi and Jean….
I can now walk down the isle on my wedding day with a big smile.
Caroline the receptionist was amazing and she took the time to really understand what i needed…💗
Thank you so much Caroline
Bless you all..

Great experience with Benita and the team! Efficient, effective sevice. Stoked that my teeth are sparkly clean. Lauren Angelil
Coming from Europe was a bit concerned if South African dentists are on state of the art level, especially with a root canal/ crown treatment, I had ahead of me.
Dr. Sonja Britz was very Kind and Professional. I got every little process step explained, could follow some steps on the screen and I felt in very good hands since she was acting very gentle and sensitive.
Also the equipment is state of the art and the Place is very clean.
I couldn’t make out any gap to the European dentists I visited so far.
All in all a very good experience, clearly recommended.
I will definitively stay a patient in this dental office!
Florian Hissbach
Truly the best dental practitioner I’ve ever been to. From the moment you enter, the staff all make you feel extremely welcome and cared for.
Dr smith herself is an absolute marvel and her attention to detail and perfectionist nature means that she gives you the most incredible advice and service that other dentists might not. And although they are on the pricier side, you can rest assured that their dental work is of a higher standard than anywhere else. I’ve recommended the practice to all of my friends and family and I am so glad to have discovered such a gem of a practice.

Hayley Vann-Herbert
Best Dental practice I have been to in 10 years.
The entire team is kind, friendly and always quick with help and give guidance.
Appointments are easily achieved and communicated with SMS reminders on booking and the day before an appointment is set to take place.
The Doctors are brilliant with sounds practice advice, light-hearted humour to lighten moods, check-ups and timely dental work.
Recommend Smith & Van Lierop if not used already or if one is new to the area.

The dentists take their time explaining to you what work is needed, what the options are, etc. State of the art equipment and overall about as positive an experience going to the dentist can be! Fiona Scorgie
The whole experience in dealing with the team there is never less than exemplary. I personally have walked a long journey with Dr. Corne Smith that started several years ago. Not only have I seen the practice grow into the super practice that it is today, but I have had the amazing opportunity to get to know the team there. Every single one a Rockstar! Contrary to popular perception that a visit to the dentist be a 'painful' experience. I positively look forward to every visit. If you are interested in finding a lifetime dentist or dentistry... look no further! Grant Anderson
Had a number of sessions at the practice and despite dental work not usually being the most thrilling experience, I really enjoyed the atmosphere the staff created and was beyond happy with the outcome. Would recommend this practice without a doubt Justin de Freitas
Had a great experience at Corne Smith Dentistry. I had a cleaning done and need to come back for a consultation for a few minor tweaks. Everyone at the practice made me feel relaxed and at ease. I highly recommend you visit these professionals. Matt Kent
We love the staff: they are super competent and really friendly. The practise has also embraced using technology in innovative ways to simplify the process. Martin Duys, Cape Town
Both I and my son Timothy were fortunate to have been helped by Dr Smiths practice. Dr Britz was attentive and kind and her professionalism should be an example to all. My boy saw Benita the hygienist - he has been very concerned about discoloration - after an hour his teeth looked completely different and he was very happy. I can only highly recommend the practice - they are different and that makes the difference ! Anthony Hartman, Cape Town
I received excellent service and care from Dr Corne Smith, highly qualified professionals with the best technology, she looked at the big picture, assesed all options and gave me all the information. Her attention to detail and passion is refreshing! The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere in the practice is calming and comforting. I will recommend this practice to everyone! Thanks to a brilliant team! Brenda Deminey, Cape Town
Professional, state of the art ‘spaceship’ for all your dental needs. The staff are always friendly and professional; and take pride in their work. Love the team for all they’ve done for me! David, Cape Town
I've always visited dentists once and never returned due to awful experiences. But not the case with this practice! Pleasant experience all round and staff genuinely care about your smile. Definitely recommend! Letitia Solomons, Cape Town

The initial consultation was great, with Dr Smith taking me through the work to be done and setting out treatment options clearly. They are meticulous and the quality of work done is absolutely amazing, with no pain and minimal discomfort while working on my teeth. My dealings with each person at the practice, from front office to the dental experts, have been a pleasure. Inge Gargan, Cape Town
Want a magic smile - he's your guy. Personable, clinical and efficient. Great sense of humour too. Would highly recommend this dentistry & team - world class! Chloe Foden, Cape Town
dealing with everything from routine dental checks to advanced restorative work. She and her team are always great . They are friendly , professional, and they offer the best and most up to date dental treatment available. Vanessa Persson, Cape Town

He was brilliant and my results were absolutely fantastic. I couldn’t be happier. Would highly recommend him for any general/cosmetic dentistry. Toni Meyer, Cape Town
"I was referred to Dr Jean van Lierop a couple of months ago. I was advised that he was THE go-to-person when it came to remedial dentistry work.
I presented with a typical problem of seriously ground down/worn-away front teeth (top and bottom) as a result of dental malalignment, associated with grinding my teeth. I wanted to seek expert advice on what was possible with the least amount of invasive work, and which was ultimately financially viable. The most important aspect for me was to get advice from a professional person whom I could trust.
From our first interaction, Dr van Lierop put me at ease with his confidence, straight-forwardness and excellent interpersonal skills. He took time to explain and took photographs to illustrate the various treatment options open to me. He advised in detail what each different option plan would entail. He also gave an estimated costing model for each of the treatment options. What I really appreciated and remembered from those early days was the patience with which he guided me to arrive at the most favorable treatment option in my circumstances. He had no hesitation in revisiting the various options and made sure that I was absolutely comfortable with the option plan I eventually decided upon. He also made a mock-up set of what the eventual veneers would look like. The way in which he approached and engaged with me led me to have absolute trust in the advice he gave me.
My subsequent experience with Dr van Lierop has been equally good.
I can highly recommend Dr Van Lierop for remedial dentistry work, both for his excellent professional advice and his caring bed-side manner. It is a pleasure to have him as my dentist.
Peter Collins, Cape Town
"It is not very often that I post reviews on treatment by Medical / Dental practitioners, in this instance I am compelled to share my experience. I had issues with a previous Dentist which he did not seem able to resolve. My experience with the Practice and the treatment from Dr Christiaan Jordaan has restored my faith in the Dental Profession. Friendly professional staff , immaculate premises, state of the art equipment, polite and courteous treatment from Dr Jordaan, his meticulous attention to detail should be the minimum standard. I would recommend this practice to everyone." Treatment Received : Yes Michael Smythe, Cape Town
"Those who know me would know I am an Oral Hygienist and yes an Oral Hygienist at Corne Smith Dentistry!!! Fortunate to be able to work in such an incredible environment, to be able to offer the best treatment with the best materials and equipment available. A big shout to the boss lady...Dr. Corne Smith, for having such a high work ethic, a perfectionist in everything she does. Thank you for restoring my smile to an even better one. To Dr Christiaan Jordaan and his assistant Florence, for his attention too detail and the loads of laughs. Thank you to all of you!! Artists in their profession for sure!!
P.s Dentists are definitely under appreciated" Treatment Received : Yes
Benita Matthews, Cape Town
"After visiting two other dentist offices for orthodontic consultations, Dr Smith and her team were the most informative, friendly and professional. Being given all the facts and options put me at ease. I was given several treatment plans and financial options to choose from. It was an easy decision to have my orthodontic treatment here. " Treatment Received : Yes Kelly Pieterse, Cape Town
"What an incredible experience! Absolutely shattered my negative stereotypes and past experiences of dental practice!
I was ably assisted by Dr. Jordaan, Florence, and Kayleigh. Each practitioner was friendly, polite, GENTLE, and really clear in communicating their process with me.
In the past, dentists I've been to have tended to have a "know-it-all" attitude and closed off bedside manner. But not the team at Corne Smith Dentistry! I'm coming back in six months!
" Treatment Received : Yes
Daniel Nambassi, Cape Town
"Thanks to Dr Smith I can now smile with confidence and it was all pain free!
I've never left a review for a medical practice but I simply had to for this one. I can't recommend this place enough! Easily one of the most beautiful (Drs) rooms I've ever been in. Also she carefully explains everything she's going to do before doing it and does so in a super friendly manner. Im yet to experience *any* pain whatsoever (I'm sure it's not the norm!). She's professional and made me feel comfortable and relaxed. And her meticulous attention to detail is astounding!
It feels both like home *and* like a cool shop. Everything is so incredibly clean and beautiful! Everyone was super friendly and warm. Dr Smith has a flat screen TV MOUNTED ON THE CEILING for you to watch during procedures! She even let me use her sound canceling headphones so I could listen to whatever I wanted while she worked!
Every single aspect of your interaction from the ease of (free) parking to the waiting room & general feel of the practice is thoroughly thought out!
I'm actually looking forward to visit a dentist (my follow up checkup).

"Hands down, the best dentist in ZA, if not the world. I’ve been with Corné and her team for almost 8 years now. This practice is friendly, professional, at the leading edge of technology and innovation, warm and always fair in price. Their service and referrals have been a life saver. Thank you!" Treatment Received : Yes Maria Kostelac, Cape Town
"This is an outstanding business: efficient, friendly, reliable, honest. The quality of care here is second-to-none. Corne Smith herself is determined to utilise the most modern, sophisticated dental techniques, combined with her own expertise. I have been here almost since the clinic opened and I have never once been let down. The work is excellent. Corne, Christiaan, and their assistants are all extremely reassuring, friendly and utterly professional. This puts even top London dentists to shame. Wholeheartedly recommended. " Treatment Received : Yes Paul Mendelson, Cape Town
"This is a dental experience like none other! The practice is beautiful, it looks like a 5 star hotel, so immediately my attention was deflected from the fact that I was at the dentist. Dr. Smith and her team were super friendly and professional, her passion for teeth and dental health shines through in the way she treated me, only wanting the best for me and, giving her honest opinion. Dr. Smith's work is outstanding and the facilities in the room was next level! Thank you Corne Smith Dentistry for my 5 star smile! " Treatment Received : Yes Lente Deminey, Cape Town

"I have never been a fan of Dentists, but this was by far the best patient care I have received from any healthcare provider, ever! Dr. Jordaan took the time to explain exactly what work needed to be done and then proceeded to do the work in the most professional, skillful and precise manner I have ever seen. Great addition to the Corne Smith Dentistry team!" Treatment Received : Yes Jacques, Cape Town
"I cracked my veneer crown and visited a dentist in Claremont. After paying over R1800 I walked away with a yellow filling on my front tooth. It looked horrible. Then in less than two weeks that filling came off. When my office called the dentist, I was asked to come in so that the dentist can redo my tooth at a fee. I then decided to go to Dr Corner Smith's practice. What a wonderful experience I had! I was treated professionally and the work that was done on my tooth was so good that I could not tell the difference between the filling and my tooth. I would definitely use this practice again." Treatment Received : Fillings Sizile, Cape Town
"Dentist or Oral hygienist, you going there for the best treatment. Would highly recommend the practise " Treatment Received : Hygienist Session Chris, Cape Town
"I discovered this practice three years ago and two of us have been visiting regularly each time we are in Cape Town. The facilities, staff and overall care have been outstanding, far outclassing anything I have experienced in the UK. The new technology on offer is astonishing and makes a genuinely substantial difference to treatments.
Above all, Dr Corné Smith is understanding, patient, efficient, completely confidence inspiring and, I believe, utterly dedicated to performing the best service possible. When you are under stress in the chair, all this work by her and her team serves to relax you, reassure you and ensure that your treatment is carried out painlessly. I have had not one reason to doubt this practice since using it and hope very much to continue to do so for many years to come.
What a pleasure to be able to recommend someone/this practice without hesitation." Treatment Received : Dental Crowns

"Firstly I would like to thank Dr Corne for restoring my faith in dentists! I had an extreme fear of dentists all my life, and neglected my teeth because of it. Dr Corne explained my treatment in detail, and she went the extra mile to ensure that I was always comfortable. I had several sessions to complete my treatment ( needed root canals and crowns), but it was all worth it! I can smile again!! and it was all completely pain free!!" Treatment Received : crowns Jonathan, South Africa

"I had a consultation with Dr Smith for veneers in April 2012. She explained the procedure very well, she also showed me photos of my teeth! I have never seen such technology! I was very impressed with the practice, the rooms are beautiful, and spacious, very tastefully done. They also have a TV screen on the roof to watch while you are treated. I would highly recommend this practice. " Treatment Received : Porcelain VeneersEmily, South Africa
