Acceptance of Terms

By visiting insmyledental.com, requesting an appointment online, or contacting our Chicago office through this website, you agree to these terms and conditions. If you do not agree with any part of this page, please do not use the site and instead call our office directly to speak with a member of our team.

Permitted Use of the Website

This website is here to help you learn about our dental services, our doctors and team, and how to reach us. You are welcome to use the site to:

  • Learn about treatments we offer, such as cleanings, restorative care, and cosmetic dentistry.
  • Request, reschedule, or ask about an appointment through our online forms.
  • Contact our office with general questions about our practice, hours, or location.

Information on this site is educational in nature. It is not a diagnosis, a treatment plan, or a guarantee of any particular dental or cosmetic result. Every patient's mouth is different, and what applies to one person's situation may not apply to another's.

Intellectual Property and Content Ownership

The text, photographs, logos, graphics, and overall design of this website belong to In Smyle Dental unless another source is credited. Please do not copy, reproduce, or reuse our content, images, or branding for another website or publication without our written permission.

Accuracy and Disclaimer of Website Information

We work to keep the information on this site current and accurate, but dentistry is a hands-on, individualized practice. Any specific treatment recommendation is made only after one of our dentists has examined you in person, reviewed your history, and discussed your goals with you.

  • Listing an insurance plan or provider network on our site does not guarantee that your specific procedure will be covered. Coverage, deductibles, and benefits are confirmed directly with your insurance carrier.
  • Prices, services, and office policies described on the site may change, and we recommend confirming current details with our team before your visit.

Limitation of Liability

This website is provided as a convenience to help you learn about our practice and connect with our team. In Smyle Dental is not responsible for any loss or inconvenience that may result from relying on general information found on the site instead of speaking with our office directly. We encourage you to call us with any health-related questions rather than relying solely on the website.

Acceptable Conduct

We ask that anyone using this site do so respectfully and responsibly. This includes agreeing not to:

  • Submit another person's health or personal information through our forms without that person's knowledge and permission.
  • Post false reviews, misleading comments, or content intended to harm our practice, our team, or other patients.
  • Attempt to disrupt, hack, or interfere with the normal operation of the website.

Links to Third-Party Sites

Our site may link to outside resources, such as insurance providers or dental health organizations, for your convenience. We do not control those websites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. Visiting a linked site is at your own discretion.

No Dentist-Patient Relationship From the Website Alone

Browsing our website or submitting an appointment request does not, by itself, create a dentist-patient relationship. That relationship begins only once our practice has accepted you as a patient, which typically happens after we have confirmed your appointment and you have been seen in our office.

Educational Content Only, Not Dental Advice

Articles, service descriptions, and any other content on this site are meant to help you understand your options in general terms. None of it should be treated as personal dental advice, a diagnosis, or a treatment plan. If you have a dental concern, especially pain, swelling, or an injury, please call our office or seek care promptly rather than waiting to review our website.

No Guarantee of Specific Results

Photographs and descriptions of treatments such as whitening, veneers, or restorative work are shared to help illustrate what our services generally involve. Dental and cosmetic outcomes depend on each patient's unique oral health, anatomy, and how well they follow home care and follow-up instructions, so we cannot promise a specific result for any individual case.

Protected Health Information

Our practice handles protected health information in line with applicable privacy laws, including HIPAA where it applies. Forms on this website are meant for scheduling and general communication; they are not a secure substitute for discussing detailed health information, which we prefer to do by phone or in person once you are an established patient.

Appointments and Cancellations

We ask patients to give our office as much notice as possible if they need to cancel or reschedule a visit, so we can offer that time to another patient. You can manage your appointment by calling our office or by using the Request Appointment page. Our front desk team can walk you through our current scheduling and cancellation practices.

Insurance and Financing

We accept a range of dental insurance plans and payment options, and we do our best to keep that information current on our Insurance page. Accepted plans, payment arrangements, and in-network status can change, and the final word on what your plan covers always comes from your insurance carrier rather than from our website.

SMS / Text Messaging Program

In Smyle Dental may send automated text messages to mobile numbers that patients provide to us. These messages help keep your care on track and may include:

  • Appointment reminders and confirmations for upcoming visits.
  • Hygiene and recare reminders when it is time for your next cleaning or checkup.
  • Treatment or post-visit follow-up messages related to care you received at our office.
  • Office updates, such as weather closures or schedule changes.
  • Occasional practice announcements that you have opted in to receive.

Message frequency varies depending on your care needs and preferences. Message and data rates may apply. Messages may be sent using standard 10-digit long codes (10DLC) or short codes, and carriers are not liable for messages that are delayed or not delivered.

How You Opt In

When you provide a mobile number through a website form, an appointment or booking request, a reply keyword text, or a paper form in our office, you are agreeing to receive SMS messages from In Smyle Dental as described above. Consent is not a condition of purchase or of receiving dental services. Please only provide a mobile number that belongs to you, and by doing so you confirm that you are authorized to give consent for that number.

How You Opt Out and Get Help

You are in control of our text program at any time:

  • Reply STOP to cancel. You will receive one confirmation message, and then no further program messages unless you opt in again.
  • Reply START or UNSTOP to resume messages after opting out.
  • Reply HELP for assistance, or call our office directly at (773) 915-6530 or visit our Contact page.
  • You may also contact us directly at any time and ask to be removed from our text messaging list.

SMS Privacy and Vendors

Your mobile number and SMS consent records are used only to send the messages described above and to meet carrier and regulatory requirements. We do not sell this information to third-party marketers. We share it only with the SMS and telephony vendors and mobile carriers that are needed to deliver our messages to you. For more detail on how we handle your personal information, please see our Privacy Policy.

Changes to These Terms

We may update this page from time to time as our services, policies, or legal requirements change. Continuing to use our website after an update means you accept the revised terms. We encourage you to check this page occasionally if you want to stay informed.
