Order Processing and Payment

Any orders processed through our website are subject to Safejawz accepting the order. Please note that the automated acknowledgement e-mail sent out following an order is not confirmation that your order has been accepted. Once the order has been accepted, a contract to purchase and deliver goods between you and Safejawz takes effect. Legal title will pass to you once the goods have been delivered. The contract between Safejawz and the customer only relates to those items listed in the acknowledgement e-mail.

You will be charged for the goods purchased before the goods have been dispatched.
All of our products are subject to stock availability. If following your order, we find a stock out on that particular item; first of all we may inform you of the wait time until the item is back in stock. If you decide that you do not wish to wait for the item, we will offer you a replacement at the same quality or above for the same price. You are not obliged to accept the replacement; alternatively, we can offer you a full refund and cancel the order. If the order contains multiple items, we will ship the items that can be fulfilled and refund the item(s) that cannot be supplied. This is something that we hope will not happen often.

All prices on our site are inclusive of VAT. Some prices and special offers may change and may only last for limited time periods, we reserve the right to withdraw or amend all prices at our discretion. Given that our website contains multiple products, it may be possible that items are priced incorrectly. Should you order a product that is incorrectly priced, we will notify you as soon as possible and give you the option of either amending your order to the correct price or cancelling the order completely. We are not obliged to sell goods at the incorrect price if the error could have reasonably been recognised by the customer.
You will be notified of all delivery costs during the order process. If you order over the phone we will inform you of any extra costs.
Prices on our website may vary from prices in our separate catalogues or other selling media.

Custom-Fit / Bespoke Products

If you have bridge work, fixed orthodontic appliances or false teeth then impressions should only be taken by a qualified dental professional. Our impression kits are not suitable for children under the age of 9. Children under 16 should be supervised by an adult at all times during the impression process. It is also advised that the Safejawz Impression System is not used if the intended wearer has milk or loose teeth.
When placing an order using our 'Design your own' tool, we will interpret your instructions in a logical way to produce the best guard possible. If once in receipt of your guard you are not happy with the design then only if we have not followed your design instructions may a replacement be available.

Please note: as different screens and devices display colours differently, the colour shade of our products may change just slightly. The design might also distort slightly as per the individuals dental arrangement.

If an unsatisfactory impression is returned, an impression kit is lost or for any other reason a second impression kit has to be sent out we may insist that a replacement is paid for. Impression kits are available for £9.95. 

 

We reserve the right to refuse any dental impressions that were not administered using our own dental impression materials. You should contact us in advance of sending any third party impressions/casts so that we can give guidance as to how to package and whether we can accept the type of material used.

We do not reimburse customers the third party fees they incurred if there are any issues with the quality of the impression, or if it is damaged or lost during transit or manufacture (at no fault of our own).

We do not accept impressions made using dental alginate.

If we receive a dental impression/cast taken by a third party or a dental impression/cast from a previous custom dental appliance, our 'Perfect-Fit Guarantee' does not apply, as we cannot validate how old the impression/cast is & therefore whether it is still usable or accurate


Returns and refunds are not available for our Custom-Fit products. This does not effect your statutory rights.

Special offers and discount codes.

Special offers are subject to availability.

Where customers are given promotional codes for discounts or other offers, they may only be used by the person to whom they were issued. They must only be used in accordance with their terms and conditions and are not transferable. Should you use a discount code that you are not entitled to use, and you do not meet all the terms and conditions of its use, we may reject your order or decide to process it without the promotional benefit of the code.
If the order is processed and then we find that you were not entitled to its use, we may reverse the benefit that you obtained. This means we may take a further payment equivalent to the value of the benefit.

If impressions aren't returned within 3 months from order date, we reserve the right to cancel your order without issuing a refund. Any refunds given will be at our discretion and be deducted any costs incurred up to the point of order cancellation. This does not affect your statutory rights.
