DR. CORNEL DE KLERK
It’s a privilege to be part of the incredible I Love My Smile team as a general dentist. After graduating from the University of Pretoria in 2014, I pursued advanced courses in aesthetics and completed a post-graduate program in oral implantology in 2017.
Surgery is my true passion, and I’m always seeking ways to grow and refine my skills in this area. When I’m not helping patients achieve their healthiest smiles, you’ll find me outdoors enjoying nature or spending quality time with my four beloved dogs—life’s best companions!
Dr. THEO VENTER
For Dr Theo, dentistry is about more than teeth — it’s about solving problems and helping people feel better. He enjoys the full scope of general dentistry, from routine fillings to more complex treatments like root canals, with a special interest in oral surgery and cosmetic dentistry.
He is passionate about helping patients understand their oral health and clearing up common misconceptions — especially the belief that dental problems can heal on their own. His approach is simple: identify the problem early and focus on the right solution.
Dr Theo also understands that many patients feel anxious or may have avoided the dentist for some time. His calm, non-judgemental approach helps patients feel at ease and supported from the moment they walk in.
With his practical mindset and focus on patient care, Dr Theo is committed to helping every patient feel comfortable, confident, and well cared for.
