About us The Smile Team is a family‑oriented modern and stylish practice in Balwyn North, Victoria.

We don't push or sell treatment and do not set financial targets for our providers. We are a practice that genuinely cares for our patients as a person and not just their teeth. Why work with us Reason for leaving: Our senior dental assistant Iva has been with us for 11 years and is pursuing a teaching role at RMIT.
