“I’ve had clear aligners to straighten my teeth with Dr Mithuna. I’m so impressed with the results, she is so thorough and reassuring, my teeth had trauma as a child so she slowed the treatment down to do it safely. As a mum I trust her entirely to give the best care to my young children too, they are currently being monitored for possible orthodontic care in future. Thanks, Smile Art!” –Emily Eddy-Swney
